Part of the trough will still be off the west coast but I'm not sure how much it will matter. We get pretty decent sampling over the oceans these days, just not RAOB sampling.

Really good GEFS on the 18z. This just might work out.

Never heard that last one. Media is the same way with other things, too. Always gotta have the next buzzword. I read an article the other day about "superhybrid" cars...which is just what they decided to call plug-in hybrids for the article. So dumb.

Snow isn't too bad either

My absolute favorite is snow on the subalpine trees. That just looks incredibly cool to me.
