Just eyeballing ours, its at least 77 feet tall

What is that in cm for our Canadian friends?

I'm here for the pepto. I prefer the GFS run!

I need this to stall here for about 6 hours

Great timing.

Side note.  Our furnace is over 50 years old and still working fine.  When we bought the house over 20 years ago the inspector called it a dead man walking.  They don't make em like they used to!

Yeah, hoping to get someone out today but probably going to have to wait till tomorrow. 59 degrees in here!! Lol

Seems like a huge step in the right direction for the GFS. Cold air works it's way further South. Colder air around Oly North. A few more runs and we'll have a full on arctic front down into OR.

Decent snow totals for Seattle but marginal temps

Go Huskies!

I'm a huge Huskies fan eventhough I got my MBA at WSU. Go Dawgs!! I still have the back-to-back rosebowl sweatshirt from the 90's

Where's the train? I need to jump back on!!

Colder air making it down into Bellingham

Portland getting some mixed action

I'm jumping off the train. Going back to normal life. We should get a good blast next year.

Here is comes. Look out

EURO already looks better

Matt mentioned similarities to 2011 earlier today.   I don't remember the lead up to that event at all.   I barely remember what happened last week.  

Models were showing 20+ inches in Seattle and a day before the pullback started and we got cold rain.

Then again, this run DOES drop 2 feet of snow by Sunday for the central Puget Sound. D**n. (But don't look at snowfall maps SEAN!)

GEM is King

Pepto... I need pepto...

I just keep thinking of the HUGE majority of people reading this forum right now who don't have any formal meteorology education. I get the joking, the mocking, the dramatics of it all (it makes it fun), but we need a few serious, level-headed takes for folks who just want to know the basics.

As I said before, if you want an extreme winter weather event, this most recent model run isn't great. Yes, you can find surface temperatures that are extreme and pull some snowfall map that shows bright colors. But the issue is that the trend is troublesome.

If this were to play out perfectly as shown, it would be an event to remember, but it suggests a trend from the earlier models that have historically proven to be the downfall of winter weather in the PNW.

Let's hope it is just a blip and not a warning.

Level-headed? What's that?

That's too cold. Throw it out.
