Too bad the trough is going to dig so far west. Starting next week though the cold really settles in here. Honestly Jim the rain to snow events don't excite me like they used too. I'd take quality over quantity. A couple inches of power for everone and 18 degrees is all we need 4 We come from the land of the ice and snow.

The absolute pandemonium that would ensue on this forum if we even approached the equal and opposite equivalent of June 2021. It would be staggering. The sheer levels of ween would be intoxicating. And given the cold bias on the GFS, its runs would be frighteningly even colder. -20s in the central Willamette. -15F at KSEA.
