Snowing moderately and sticking once again, 850 feet NW Portland. 32.7 degrees

Lightly snowing and sticking here at 850 feet in NW Portland. Temp 32.2

Has a fairly accurate record, usually very conservative and calls busts early on, but he is gung ho on this system for Portland.

Wow, major PDX snowstorm!!

00z Nam 2C colder Wednesday

Winter Storm Watch just issued for Portland area

New update from Fox 12 for Portland

I hear ya, been through these busts a million times, never gets easier. That said, i'm not sold on this being a bust yet. Even the bust models give us some snow and freezing rain. Slight adjust will make huge differences here. This could be the last shift north before some wobbles south tonight into tomorrow, seen that a million times too. Time will tell

1 Nam run and its storm canceled huh?

NBM gives PDX to Olympia 10-12 inches of snow

UKMET is a Tillamook, Oregon landfall

This may end up being the final wobble north before a slight adjustment south based on the model means. Landfall appears increasingly likely somewhere between Tillamook and Astoria before heading ESE.

Op appears to be one of the most northern trends, mean is a between central and northern Oregon coast

GEFS low locations

Looking at temps around Bellingham and north it appears to be colder than the Euro forecast and more in line with the GFS so far.

Seems reasonable. I'm feeling somewhat comfortable here in the west hills of NW Portland, though further slight moves north could even effect here greatly. May still see another nudge south again though as the Euro and GFS come together over the next 24 hours.

Good point, could certainly be more of a ZR event with bursts of snow at times too. Who knows

Wants to have PDX start as snow Thursday morning, thinks the east winds will usher in colder air faster

6Z GFS Ensembles for Portland, WOW!

Massive difference in low placement between the GFS and EURO, who caves to who? OR/WA border verse northern Cali. I predict one or the other makes a massive move between tonight and tomorrow morning.

Regardless of where the low placements ultimately ends up i think its important to remember that in these setups the northern edge of the precip shield can often extend much further north than modeled too.

Looks like the hills around town could be getting hammered for a couple hours as the cold slowly works its way down.
