What an absolute fail by the CFS weeklies. Compare the old week 2 from above to the new week 1 below, which covers the same dates. Yikes

Hard to stay positive when things keep failing

There is no from me. I remain cautiously optimistic. I know full well it can take until February to deliver. I just hope and I do not think it's going to take that long. It won't. I do hope we can avoid additional ARs though.

Way too negative for an "essentially climo" forecast, imo. Lots of opportunity for the lowlands to come and much easier access to snow (road washouts notwithstanding) for those who want it.

Heavy depression here today, wow. We’re so close friends, stay positive!
