Awesome photo. Im betting this storm won’t be the only one we get this year....I’m sure this won’t be the strongest either. You’ll be able to catch the next one. 

I will enjoy the storm through you guys!

Just finished star watching with zero light pollutions here at the Lava Beds monument.....just incredible!!!

Really a shame to see it so badly burnt there. My list of favorite spots that have been burnt is getting longer than the spots that haven't been burned.

Interesting run. Looks like there could be some snow in the midwest next week.

Things are really looking up on the GFS in the believable range.  If the improvement continues for a few more run this might end up pretty good.

That is a really great list. Thanks for putting that together.  There are a lot of top tier and even historic cold events represented  in those years spread throughout the cold season.

The key to this improvement has been that cutoff low way off the coast trending further and further west / SW.
