Long Range Forecast Predictions

We are sitting at 88.8 % Accurate, which is along our historical average.  The Active Pattern is just 5 days away from the storm that will move thru the Pacific Northwest, Lake Tahoe, Utah and Colorado Christmas Eve (PNW, Tahoe) Day (Utah) and Night (Colorado).

Average lead time between when the storms were predicted and when they hit is 23.37 days, which is quite a bit better than model guidance which maxes out at 14 days.

There will be a few storms moving through the Pacific Northwest and Canada between now and the Active Pattern beginning today.  Another storm Sunday will hit the PNW and possibly Lake Tahoe and finally a third wave through the PNW and Canada on Monday the 23rd.

 

 

 

 

These charts are called Meteograms and are the combination of 50 different possible outcomes of the European ensemble.  These charts give a since of the size and the scope of the incoming storm systems. 

Looking at Alta, Steamboat and Lake Tahoe, you can see model agreement for the first two storms.  The third storm has less agreement but should come into focus in the next few days.  Next are the charts that follow are for Crystal Mountain, Mt Hood and Whistler Blackcomb.  They are getting hammered over the next 10 days.  Whistler is pretty much nonstop until the new year.
