One of my chickens died yesterday and it was my fault. We always give them treats like smashed up chips in the bottom of the bag, I shake the bag and they come running up to the house or out of the woods. Yesterday I gave them a bunch of smashed up tortilla chips like I always do. I was doing yard work and I kept hearing a weird sound like weezing and found that one of the smaller hens was struggling to breath. Long story short she ate the ships to fast and didn't drink water and she choked to death. I tried everything I could in a panic trying to fix her, held her upside down tapping her back, rubbed her neck and throat area, stuck a small clear tube down her throat gently blowing air into her lungs to try and clear the blockage. Kept her alive for 45 minutes pumping air into her lungs. Never have I experienced anything like this. When I was holding her upside down I got a massive amount of small smashed up chips out of her . I know it's just a chicken and I might sound dumb but they are pets to us not live stock. 10 years ago I would of just killed it and not blinked but I've become very sensitive to death the last few years and this was my fault . Sorry for long post but I had to tell someone the story.17 points

Hello everyone. I have been a long time lurker on this forum and I am hoping for these model outputs do trend snowier because this will be my last winter in the PNW. I appreciate all of the model analysis and information you guys have provided. I have learned alot from all of you guys.14 points

Way premature and almost certainly a death blow to this happening, but some food for thought! Looking like a potential opportunity for SEA/PDX to pull off the rarest of the rare and score subfreezing highs in December, January, and February. Last time that that happened for PDX was 1978-79. Last time for SEA was 1949-50. And the two have actually never both pulled it off in the same winter in the airport era.14 points

Because one member goes on one hell of a bender and ends up with 54" of snow.13 points

I just completed my PhD last summer, part of which is focused on the history of the Okanogan Lobe (The Puget Lobe's neighbor east of the Cascades) (https://digital.lib.washington.edu/researchworks/handle/1773/49189). From my perspective, we are still in the very early stages of understanding the Cordilleran Ice Sheet. Weather and climate during the glaciation and deglaciation is a big question mark... but it was obviously much colder and/or much snowier for glaciers to have grown to the extent they did. Part of the reason I'm on this forum is to learn more about weather and climate in this region to understand the geologic history of the ice sheets.12 points

This is the first snowstorm I’ve experienced not at home. This definitely doesn’t feel the same as being able to experience this with friends and the forum and seeing posts all over social media as well as videos of cars sliding everywhere, but this is still pretty darn magical! Some pictures of downtown Roslyn. 5.5” and counting.12 points

I know this is a weather forum and so I keep my mouth shut, but snow maps at 250hrs+ are for people who go to strip clubs with hope.11 points

The upcoming event is still far from settled. We could very well see things change in a big way 24-48 hours before things kick off and get some snow. It doesn’t look likely now but that can always change.11 points

Still no WSW from the PDX office. What a joke. Actually, I’m kinda worried they’ve all been Incapacitated by a carbon monoxide leak or something.11 points

Surface detail sugar highs/crashes aside, one consistent theme is heights around 570dm in Southern AK. Hard to avoid something somethingy if that’s in place.11 points

I had been pretty busy recently and had tuned out the weather. Had no idea anything interesting was in the cards for today. Dumping big flakes here and starting to coat non road surfaces. Temp 33.8F. These kind of surprises are awesome.11 points

That trend to push the block south delays its eventual escape to the Arctic. Verbatim should add potential to the long range should it continue.10 points
