Is Bing Crosby looking out for us?

First the first time I can remember, the GFS, NoGAPs and GEF (Global Ensemble Forecast) models are all aligning around now for next Thursday. Not a lot, but maybe enough to give us a bit of white for the holidays. More importantly, it might help filling around the trees at Snowbowl for better ambiance. I rarely see this level of alignment across models, particularly for a smaller sized storm.
