This ugly warmth won't last

Based on these five web sites, I too am hopeful that we should be in a colder regime in about a week. That large low pressure cell off the coast of British Columbia, if it makes it's way across Canada (and maybe dips south a little), would really help to drag cold air in behind it. I'm encouraged that it is a deepening low too. If something like that could come east and park off the shore of Newfoundland, we'd be set-up for a pretty decent batch of cold through the holidays. All we'd need is a nice tight low pressure to come-up out of Oklahoma and give us a foot of snow and we'd have it made. Too far out to tell, though. I miss the Skiing Weatherman, because he worked this same way, using global information to base his predictions.

 

Damn! That low pressure that was over BC last week, weakened as it came across Canada, and all we're going to get is a weak cold front passing through today. It might allow for a little night-time snow making to freshen the slopes.

 

What really hurts is that there is a huge south-to-north jet jutting up into the Yukon and the south part of the NW Territories. I hope that it weakens too, as it moves east. Otherwise, we're into a warm regime for the next 7-10 days. The time is clicking on my season pass and I haven't even been out once! The cold air across the north pole looks wimpy and lacks much southward "punch" in the western hemisphere.

I was really hoping to ski BC over Christmas so I'm right there with you.
