On the other hand, the traditional (by which I mean, non-AI) models all do a generally terrible job at modelling inversions. Would be interesting to see what the AI model(s) have to say. Last time, the AI Euro did correctly catch on that an inversion was coming, once one adjusted for the fact that it was based chiefly on lowland and not mountain observations.

Some 45/25 sunny days would be nice.

Kind GFS?

With a dry jan almost a lock the only one that matches would be 2013-2014
