It survived! Took this yesterday from the area. That's one tough snow pile. 60F, downpours, sunshine, and temps in the 40s and 50s.

And yes... that's green grass IN JANUARY!!

Lol I hope you are joking. You realize obviously that climatic averages are not on your side. If you want those kind of temps move way north.

Up to 27 cm of snow has fallen in the past few days and temps are forecasted to drop to -20°C on the weekend. Winter is really making up for the past two months it seems.

Here we are back to normal after a few nice days.

And we are constantly being told there is no cold to tap into.

GFS doing it's 180 degree turn around from Thursday's run. Winter was over last Thursday, but all of the sudden.....





And most CFSv2 runs are indicating increased snow potential for the end of the month to the start of February. Lets see if this pans out

How come its so easy to forecast far out for USA but impossibly hard for here?

And surely inland Canada wouldn't have that much snow?

Don't know, maybe the fact that the British Isles are more prone to swift changes in Atlantic weather? But it's not so easy to forecast long range here either, as you can see the GFS completely flipped to cold in 3 days time.

And surely inland Canada wouldn't have that much snow?

IDK

Yes but in the British isles for cold and warm we have to wait to like 36 hours before. It has happened before that we were due an easterly and then 24 hours later we had warm air.
