February 2024 Weather in the PNW
Gradient Keeper replied to TigerWoodsLibido's topic in West of the Rockies
It looks like we just may score again in February. Dramatic shifts on the ECMWF, GEM, and EPS tonight. Day 3.5 to 6.5 major improvement. Day 7+ love that PV retrograding through the Canadian prairies edging towards northeast Washington. Big things coming. MBG! Night Shift 6z GFS in 1 hour 23 minutes -

32.9 with off/on flurries. Light N to E wind. Mmmm, hot chocolate with mini-marshmallows melted in it. -

Yeah, the northern push had more momentum than I expected. It's just now nearing Troutdale from the east. -

From the north into PDX north of Division Street and just now pushing into Corbett from the east. -

Very much so. Comparing the progress of the arctic front with the 00z WRF 1.33km it's right on schedule. The boundary moving in from the north is a bit behind modeling though just north of Castle Rock. The fact the WRF is doing that well with the backdoor front into the eastern Gorge means it may be quite close with pressure gradient forecasts and if so, areas east of I-205 especially Gresham, Troutdale, Fairview, Wood village are going to see very strong possibly damaging winds. Another area of similar winds for the Foothills up into Clark County and even the West Hills. There is the potential before this east wind storm is over that we could see the strongest east winds in 20-25 years. 12z GFS in 4 hours 7 minutes -

1 am 850mb temps. That's impressive! Now imagine if that ridge had held for another 1-2 days. Top tier blast without a doubt. -

18z NAM 4 pm Tuesday (12-run trend) Nice trend to amplify the ridge and watch the base of the block closely scoot further west a notch. -
