The plot thickens. It looks like a perfect set up, so far.

Although it is not a done deal, here we go.


3 out of 4 forecast models, show a biggie snow storm  for Christmas weekend.  


 Euro goes over to epic snow storm.  The Euro. is the most reliable winter storm model. Unusual in the consistent runs calling for snow.  12 inch plus totals are in reach.


The 26th, Sunday, seems to be the day to watch now.


12/24  Partly cloudy, cold
12/25  Cloudy, snow develops late. Cold.
12/26  Heavy snow,cold,windy.
12/27  Snow and Snow showers then, clearing. Tuesday:windy,cold.


That is the best estimate for now.  Subject to change, of course. ( i.e. it goes out to sea )  I will let you know when it reaches certainty status.


The record setting rain and snow in California will play a role in our weather.  Look at Siberia -71 below zero today.


I am loving this.  A beautiful total lunar eclipse is visible in the northwestern sky,  with bright stars and a cold north wind blowing through the trees. The one in 1638 was better maybe.


12Z Euro came in at 2 pm.  It is all out blizzard time......so far!
