Quiet stretch expected
The model predicts no significant snowfall over days 8–14. Some weather models disagree and show 3.3cm — long-range models often over-forecast precipitation this far out.

Long-range outlooks are inherently uncertain — treat days 8–14 as directional, not a precise forecast. Shorter horizons (days 1–7) still come from the individual weather models above.
