I live 15ft asl. I might be a bit bitter.

Time to get things ready for the lake!

Don't worry, you'll get a chance to call him that in the next ten days.

Never.

It’s effectively hydro static, so don’t use it for the lower levels.

Non event. At this point I don't know why people would be rooting for cold and snow given all of the damage it can do in early spring.

A cool and wet JJA would not be great for my garden. Plenty of time to change though.

Interesting JJA showing up in the long range stuff.

Warming up outside with sun breaking through the cloud deck in Everett.

I think you mean a step forward

No, he knows that the soils wont support any kind of high elevation palm, which are few and far between anyway. Pinyon and ponderosa will do just fine as they creep up the side over the next few decades. It’ll look cool during the fall as the cottonwoods and maples get chased up the mountain peak. I think a lot of us will enjoy seeing flora that can look lovely in a warmer and drier climate.

Trying to fix a storage issue. Script is running in the background, so things might be weird with attachments.

I'm curious why you have been using Fahrenheit given with the problematic undertones.

I was hoping that the ground wouldn't have a hard freeze, kind of a set back for some of my ambitious gardening plans by a couple weeks. Thankfully this looks like the last of the hard freezes for the season.

Nice sunny morning so far, but bottomed down to 26º.

Just as I smugly predicted a while ago, this non-event delivered nothing. Bottomed out at 35º overnight in Everett.

Look man, if you don't like a Mediterranean climate and are not looking forward to the chaparral covering the foothills and hillsides covered in Ponderosa, Montezuma, Juniper, and Pinon, then you just don't like weather. If people want snow, they can move to it. I'll be with Tim and 2/3rds of the Canadian forum, sipping Mai Tai's on the shores of Lake Sammamish as we enjoy our new climate.

You were the forum's 5th anniversary gift. Now you need to rope someone in to continue the tradition of quality posters.

Don’t know why everyone is so worked up over some cold rain but ignoring the 60s and 70s showing up later in the run. The later looks good for some southerly flow by end of month too. I’m thinking I can get sunflowers started in a couple weeks and get the lime tree outside too. Going to try some avocado and figs this year too, so I need , no, we need this cold to end soon.

That span on 410 between Bonney Lake to Buckley can be the difference between 80mph gusts and no snow to heavy fog and flurries. Bonney Lake and Prairie Ridge can also get some kind of weird Rainier turbulence too, I have no idea what the proper name for it is but it happened once while growing up there, Autumn of 2006 I think. Bonney Lake got some 60 to 70mph winds all afternoon while Buckley and Sumner were calm and quiet. A house down the road from my home had a tree go through it and we had the local news out discussing the "freak windstorm". If it wasn't for that event, the Hanukkah Eve windstorm may have done some real damage.

Hopefully not. Need our areas to dry out and warm up for planting.

I agree with you, someone needs to get rid of the admin of this forum. Do you still have his address so we can send him a strongly worded letter? Maybe we can get a lawyer involved.

Looks warm. Don't know why anyone is getting worked up over snow when the sun angles will be too high.
