Just a quick one today. This morning's run slows the approach of the system for the weekend. Rain looks to develop sometime on Saturday, likely in the morning, and lasting through the day. This keeps the system over water longer, and allow for it to hit us more fully. Could be a pretty wet day. Heaviest rain presently looks to be around nightfall, with things fairly cleared out by Sunday. Freezing levels could drop below 2000 feet, which allows for some snow locally. It would be nice if we could see some on the peaks in the morning.
It should be noted that the NWS still has this coming in on early Friday, about 30 hours before the GFS. That is super significant given we are only 36 hours out from the earlier arrival time. Something to monitor. We are looking at a half inch of liquid as far south as at least Carmel. Well over in inch in the Sierra. We could get some decent snow this weekend, especially with the cold. Not really the sloppy base builder we need, but better than nothing. Expect more terrain opening, especially with the big man made and low angled resorts. I'll update this all tomorrow as to timing and rainfall. And don't forget, it is going to be freezing tomorrow morning. Already pretty damn cold today. Ahh, winter time. Just hung the lights. Don't be surprised if these numbers all peddle back tomorrow.
