Models Beginning to Align; Pattern Change Starts Thursday

After a long dry spell, the models are beginning to align and we expect a very abrupt pattern change starting Thursday with the possibility of huge storm for Saturday and another very warm storm for Monday.

Here is what we are seeing, bare in mind that the GFS model is aligning with the ECMWF which increases are confidence:

Thursday 12/12



Saturday 12/14


Monday 12/16

Much of the rest of the country will be in a deep freeze. A huge ridge of high pressure will provide some blocking which will slow our storms down. That means more precip!

We are pretty confident that this is all snow on Thursday and Saturday for Mt. Rose. Monday could be a bit sketchy with some high elevation rain.

Stay Tuned ...
