Next Storm Will Be Different

We are carefully tracking a storm that is currently moving across the Gulf Of Alaska. This storm system is headed our way for Christmas. The chatroom is already buzzing about it...believe it or not, people are wanting more snow!


I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this system will take a northerly track and will bring warmer weather and rain for Christmas Day. In fact, it could potentially melt most of the snow that is currently on the ground!
