  1. I got to meet Walter Kelly when I was like 12. Just me my brother and him and we got to watch him film some weather forecast segments and talk about the bust that was January 2011. Super cool memory.
  2. Record lows at SEA will be pretty difficult to touch with this cold spell. The records in the period of question 1/11-1/15 roughly are in the low teens. From 1963 and 1950.
  3. They say that the permanent bridge and the area from I-90 to the top of tiger mountain will be done in 2026. Obviously it’s going to take a lot longer than that. Still so much work to be done. The area on the other side of tiger mountain down to maple valley is a whole second half of the project.
  4. Eventually it’s going to be 2 lanes in both directions all the way up and down tiger mountain. They’re going to entirely re-do the I-90/18 merger. They’re also knocking down and building a new bridge on raging river.
  5. I work there everyday on the Highway project. So f*cking dangerous. Saw a horrible accident there a couple days ago.
  6. Especially if this event works out…I’ll look back on the last 8 winters as the golden age of snowfall. So many awesome snow events the last few years. Historically it’s been way better than average. It’ll be tough when things go back to normal for a few years.
  7. All very true. I’d rather get a 18 degrees high temp smashing the coldest max on record for the century up here than a foot of snow. I know many other people would take the big snow nothing wrong with that. I’ve averaged about 12” of snow IMBY roughly the last 7 winters. Legit record cold is so hard to come by.
  8. I know it doesn’t always necessarily work this way but I’d trade more snow for colder. We’ve had so much snow the last few years anyways.
  9. For western Washington atleast…if this is going to be a more regional event gotta make a lot more improvements in the next couple days.
  10. Everything can be given back just as quickly as it’s taken away in this game.
  11. Yeah, I am really hoping that we see something much better more on the scale of December 2021. No idea what’ll happen at all yet though! I just think atleast here up north we will see a little something at the worst. I am worried there will be a N/S cutoff of disappointment somewhere in the region which sucks.
  12. We did have a little snow and a couple days in the mid 30s in January 2020. Overall that’s not terrible and better than nothing. IMO here in Western Washington north of OLM I expect we see at the very least something similar to that. Potentially more than that hopefully. Either way I am hoping for something much better than that.
  13. This is definitely a different situation…little more confidence in this one than that model ride.
  14. All this is saying is that we’re still alive in the game at this point…could go either way. Normally though it would be the euro being the negative Nancy.
  15. Kind of disappointing this is a strong N/S gradient run. Seeming like the regional stuff is seemingly disappearing.
  16. IIRC in the lead up to the late November/Early December 2022 and the bigger December 2022 events…we had no idea what was going to happen either.
