    Enjoy the moisture, zero here. If it snowed here it would be MINUS 10! We will wait for liquid form, several days in forecast, but since it's only a week, not 12 years when it is accurate to tenths of a degree world wide calculation of thousands of sites, it could be all BULLSHIT and change.

      4 tenths of rain here and then snow. Hard to say how much but looks to be 12 inches or better. Drifts of 4-5 ft across some roads. Heavy and wet. We ar 25% seeded and seeding conditions were good for the most part with wind drying things out quickly. Won't turn a wheel here for 7-10 days me thinks.

        Which apps do you use Bigzee?

        How many radar sources could there be that cover Westen Canada as extensively as Environment Canada? I realize their network has alot to be desired.

        Are some of the apps you use using nothern States radar and your area is covered by the fringes of those radar stations? Would the northern Canadian grain belt have any options other than Enviro-Canada?

        In the summer I sometimes watch Montana radar to track approaching lows.

        Radar is what, a ten minute delay in real time precipitation....unlike animated "forecasts" that try to determine the amount of precip and tracking of coming systems....their educated best guess. No way to know for sure the exact path or amount until it's passed through.

        Computer generated weather models vary

        I find Accuweather forecasts quite bizarre, 14 day outlooks....really? Based on what? "Historical" data?

        To me, nothing is near accurate more than three days out....seems that's about as far as Lerner is about to venture out.

            I use Storm Radar, Weather Network, and Weatherbug. There’s lots of weather apps out there. You can put your location in all of them and watch it rain. Lol

              Are they all piggybacking on someone else's radar but have their own graphics?

                They are all different. Just go to the App Store and search them.

                  There is only one actual radar source in Canada. The rest are computer generated.

                      Damn snow we have 8 ft banks along slab fences in the corrals. Like the moisture but not the snow hope there isnt too much snow on the sidehills. Its wet out there now will be at least a week or more to get into fields.
