I've pretty much been right on the edge of it too. I could also use another five blocks. Even a few feet would probably help....

Yeah, it definitely has that classic look to it. To my south is blue sky, and to the north is nothing but sweet darkness. Snow is picking up here a bit in the waning sun.

Here is another view of the front edge. Snowing and sunny right now. Looks like/hopefully I’m about to get pummeled.

There have been some healthy-looking green returns over me for like an hour now, but not even a flurry. Sky doesn't look particularly threatening either. I can see the Olympics from my apartment. Just shook my fist at them a couple of times....hopefully that'll help.

That map is insane. When was the last time we had a robust ridge to our west and a -NAO on steroids like that?

Some of the other models look good (or have improved). The 3KM doesn't look good for SEA, so will follow the scientific method and toss it

You seem like a nice guy, but not the "glass half full" sort. It sounds like at least an inch or two for your area is very possible. And I'm not sure what you mean by "more rain." Hasn't rained in a while around here...

It's ripe with potential. Those away from the water, a bit elevated, and/or a little north are probably going to pretty happy if it turns out anything like that. Having said that, it might turn out well even for those who lack those most enviable qualities.

Surprised it’s still snowing here. Got a little more than an inch. More than happy with that.

Still coming down nicely on top of Capitol Hill and absolutely beautiful out there. Glad so many have scored. Looks like I'm not going to have to pass out any gift cards after all...

Looks like that's happening now. Hopefully the main show is commencing.

Heavier stuff is finally making it further east north of Seattle. Now we just need it to sink like the stock market this afternoon....

I wouldn't say that, but it doesn't seem to be moving south to me (if anything it's crept a bit north and the hole over King County has expanded from above and below). Oh well, it's performing well in many areas to the north, and hopefully we'll still get our turn in the next few hours. If not I'll be passing out a lot of gift cards

I agree about the "cloud look" in general, but I like the overall structure/location of the storm and recent developments, not just the look of the clouds. The radar/obs up north seem encouraging too. Who knows what will happen, but I think at lot of people in the Central Sound will see at least an inch. I'm willing to bet Dewey's leftover gift card on it

I’m looking upstream. Seems to be some nice enhancement taking place over BC. But who knows, I could be wrong.

Totally agree. Looks potent for such a small system. I’m feeling this one.... (with all fingers crossed)

Sitting in a pretty heavy miracle snow shower here. Been coming down for 15 minutes or so. Colder surfaces have a good coating now. Roofs looking good

The 12Z ICON now shows 4-5 inches of snow around Seattle on Sunday. It feels like (I hope?) this model pics up the meso details pretty well, but who knows....

You can see the run on TT....looks snowy for the Puget Sound as the low has more of an overwater trajectory than the GFS (it drops in nicely more SW of Seattle).

The 06Z ICON is a work of art. Winter uncancel

00z ICON is a bit cooler than the 18z at HR 69. Ich hoffe das ist ein gutes modell!!

Not going to argue with that, but last night's GEM run was a steaming pile of dogs*it. Seems to be a move in right direction, at least for the weekend. Anyway, the Americans, Europeans, Germans, etc. have all hopped on the party bus. I think the Canadians will book a seat soon too. Further north even the 00z isn't a disaster, though.

True, but this run is much better that the last two runs in the believable range. It's been all over the place too. Not gonna lose any sleep over what it shows for next Friday.

To add to the lovefest.... For some reason the GEM frames for HR 66 and 108 are showing up on TT. HR 108 looks better than the last couple of runs.

06Z!!!!
