Since some of my income now comes from snowfall in the form of removing it from parking lots, I have been following along more closely. The following also should fit nicely with the fact that many resorts plan on opening around the 17th for thanksgiving.
From the SLC noaa:
GLOBAL MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A SIGNIFICANT STORM SYSTEM
BEGINNING TO IMPACT THE REGION NEAR THE END OF THE FORECAST
PERIOD. DIFFERENCES REMAIN BETWEEN THE EC AND THE GFS...BUT BOTH
SHOW THE SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY.
GFS IS INITIALLY FASTER BRINGING THE SYSTEM IN BUT SHOWS A
STRONGER AND SLOWER MOVING SYSTEM OVERALL AS THE WAVE CLOSES OFF
OVER SOUTHERN UTAH. THE EC KEEPS THE SYSTEM AS AN OPEN WAVE AND
DOES NOT DIG IT AS FAR SOUTH. BOTH SHOW VERY COLD AIR WITH THE
SYSTEM...700 MB TEMPS AS COLD AS -12C...ALONG WITH QUITE A BIT OF
MOISTURE. HOWEVER...STILL TOO FAR OUT TO HAVE MUCH CONFIDENCE IN
ANY SOLUTION BUT A PATTERN SHIFT APPEARS TO BE COMING.
Think Snow!!
