I farted an hour ago. The last time I farted was in 2008. We all know what happened then!

I hate it when I can't click ' Like ' lol..... anyone else? I'm too positive i guess. I'll try to be negative a bit more often.

You're going to get dumped on. Enough to make some snow titties

500mb temp anomaly beyond day 10 shows stronger ridge over western Alaska and colder trough over us than all previous runs. Hmmmmm

From a reliable source: 12z EPS control run again with the follow up deep West Coast trough.

Mountains looking sexy this morning

Washington State western lowlands and north has had laughable meager amounts of snow since January 2012. Think I am running at a total of 4" over the past four years. Pathetic and laughable at the same time.

00z EURO outlier..... onto 6z in 2 hours 27 minutes !!!! Good night

hide from people!!

Maybe we can actually get a white Christmas

Officially getting excited now! Oh the water pump on my wife's SUV just went out...the last time I had a water pump go out in one of our vehicles... December 2008.

Celebrate sunshine and ridging in this land of constant troughs

I think the role of Hitler goes to Snow_wizard (Jim). That video was awesome coming from a long time lurker dating back to the Old Farmer's Almanac days.

Models seem pretty settled on the general idea of modified arctic air north of Seattle and some cold onshore flow from there on south. Best case scenario is probably a January 2002 style event.

The greatest insult was the 14/15 ski season. Great by eastern standards, but absolutely pathetic for the Cascades.

Yea I'm pretty sure Phil knows that. The western lowlands are really due for a good dumping.

If we get slushy accumulation next week, that will be better than the past three winters combined !

Good lord is all I can say.

You should probably put luvsnowseattle on ignore.

I propose we build a wall to keep out warm anomalies.

It's true. I really am the only one who hates warm rain here in the winter.

Rampant placism around here sometimes.

I think we have a realistic shot at coldest winter of the century so far. That's not saying all that much, but I'm really liking the progression.

Whew.

Bueller???

A friend on Whidbey Island posted pictures from two years ago today when they got nearly 6" of snow going into that little arctic blast. I got about half an inch near UW that night. Stayed up all night, but it was worth it for that 3 AM walk in the snow!

Why is it that the members on this forum that live in great locations for snow, end up being the most annoying?

Block looks much stronger, harder and more girthy!

It's time for this video again LOL When I saw my name in it I LOL so hard. Tim is mentioned and others too!

Starting to look like we could see some rather low snow levels early next week. Maybe even a freeze. You heard it here first!

Nation needs to move on from the Clinton's ASAP.

Canada is nearly 100% covered with snow finally...let's get this party started already! http://www.natice.noaa.gov/pub/ims/ims_gif/DATA/cursnow_usa.gif

500mb heights are a surprisingly poor predictor of surface temperatures.

That is pathetic. Lowlands of BC have really been shafted with dry cold in recent winters.

Bellingham had close to a foot of snow in february and barely missed a second foot a week later. bryant and i had fun with that one

Reload, reset, reboot, remix.

I always did like the Canadians.

Hey look. The Canadian is better than the GFS now! http://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/gem/2016113000/gem_mslp_pcpn_frzn_nwus_34.png http://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/gem/2016113000/gem_mslp_pcpn_frzn_nwus_35.png

Michael J. Fox is pretty chilly.

Keep in mind, this is a WARNING SHOT.

We'll see!

I really think it's like I have been saying. The ridge that becomes the Aleutian/GOA block is just now over Japan as seen in the chart below. Models obviously still do not have a handle on upper level pattern recognition. Seeing different solutions with today's 12z GEM, GFS, and ECMWF tells us this. I don't think there will be solid model agreement until Wednesday 00z and until then I feel models could turn colder/blockier, or remain with a solution similar to what we're seeing now. http://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/gfs/2016112918/gfs_mslp_wind_wpac_2.png

That's as share the wealth as it gets for this sub.

several inches of snow wednesday-thursday for pdx http://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/gfs/2016112918/gfs_asnow_nwus_37.png

I love that site, but their color palate on the 850's is painful to analyze. Did they forget other colors exist besides blue?

12z GFS Begins in.... 6 minutes Hoping for a stronger ridge around 150-160 W or a solution similar to 00z. We don't want to see the pattern become too progressive.

Hearing the Euro Weeklies are a snowpocalypse from the Rockies/Plains/Lakes...I'll believe it if the Euro wins the battle over the coming 10 days. This is going to be a true test if the King is doing better or if the GFS is taking a step back. Now that we are heading into the Winter season and out of Autumn, could the Euro be turning the corner???

You better believe it buddy.....I wonder if the "B" word will be mentioned. Ouch, I am starting to get the chills already!!!!
