Default Very cool giant straight jet stream hitting North America

Expectations including more atmospheric river causing flooding and mudslides.

Should be interesting. Hopefully southern reservoirs will get filled and snowpacks will get topped up.

Doesn’t look like it’s bring Alberta much moisture. The mountains need lots of snow still.

I dont think it's going to help snow pack.

"The Pacific air will stream northward, creating an intense warm-air ridge. Temperatures that are 10-20+ degrees above seasonal are expected to blanket a huge amount of Canadian real estate.

Nearly all of the Northwest Territories and all three Prairie provinces will be significantly above normal, temperature-wise, come Tuesday."

Yikes.

You are right. Could harm the snowpack in B.C.

If we pay more carbon tax the Liberals will make sure that this doesn't happen here in Canada, after all we pay carbon tax so we can control the weather correct
