Just measured 8.5". I'm guessing the actual total was more like 9-10", but we had a little bit of melting last night before the second snow band came through. Depending on how the early Dec death ridge turns out, this could very well be the beginning of our 'snowpack season' here in town (i.e., the beginning of our uninterrupted streak of having 1 or more inches of snow on the ground), which typically lasts until March/April. Also, if that were to pan out, this would certainly be our earliest start to snowpack season in my memory at least.

awesome!

The last 2 runs of the AI Euro shifted that cold air mass later in the week almost 800 miles to the west. It went from death ridge over us to legitimate chance at some backdoor action. Massive positive changes in the mid-range imo. Just look at the difference between the 18z and the 6z this morning: 18z: 6z:

.50 of water equivalent today. 9.17 on the month.

The ECMWF and EPS are just plain awful today. At least they show a lot of inversion days.
