ABSOLUTELY  you will be good.  Be careful on blewett pass. I've done that drive about 200 times and blewett can be really icy. 

 

Thank you!! Would you recommend taking a different route?

Looking for some advice from you kind folks. We're pretty new to the area and want to make the drive out to Leavenworth this weekend. Do you guys think I-90 will be passable with a Subaru Outback with snow tires? Don't wanna take any serious risks, but also don't wanna cancel for nothing. We were thinking of leaving around noon as the snow tapers off, but it looks like at least a foot will have fallen over the pass overnight.

It'll be interesting to see if anything can make it to Seattle proper. A couple inches tonight would be so cool.

To be fair, RGEM does show the snow line just south of Seattle to start. If there is gonna be snow, it's gonna be a narrow line between ice-storm and a few inches of snow(then ice-storm..)

One of my favorites back in the day was Jim Little. Met him one time at PDX airport and he was super nice.

-3.7 here. Looks like 0/-22 for today

Are you by any chance the Antipex from the 'Wronga' song? I remember dying laughing to that as a kid. 

As we get closer to the event, this looks to be trending drier, especially for the initial wave.

This is going to be more snow than forecasted. I can feel this one.

I love your positive attitude. Life is better with that kind of vibe..

will be interesting. Those fronts can drop A bunch of snow fast.

Should be some really high ratio stuff too. 10:1 is probably too low.

Looks to be tapering off for areas north of Seattle, maybe one more wave to come through.

This looks like it's sagging south pretty quick, I think we only got a couple hours left unfortunately. It's beautiful outside though!!

If the rain/snow line stalls out just north of us..

How many hours of precip we got left? 

Down from 39 to 35 in Wallingford. It's coming?

Interesting that Everett quickly dropped to 28 with the N winds. If the winds switch, this could be quite nice. 

Driving from Wallingford to Redmond, temp dropped from 39 to 34. If we switch northerly, could easily be back to snow soon. We'll see!

Not gonna lie, talks about this potentially being historic and seeing some mets and experienced posters being on board has this one feeling extra sad as the bust becomes more possible/likely  

edit: but I'm still believin' over here!! Screw the warm nose, warm tongue, all that..

Please nobody say the 'B' word 

Toppes out at 33 in Wallingford, back down to 32. Sure seems colder than expected! Fingers crossed, this is gonna be extremely close...

Wish the 12Z GFS was right! It shows 6-10" Tacoma to Everett. 

Unfortunately, looking at guidance that came out overnight, things seem to be trending towards Euro. HRRR and RGEM are showing the snow-rain-snow transition happening even north of Seattle. Euro did well to show it first. I think we'll get some snow tomorrow but also quite a bit of rain as well.

Models did really well in setting up the PSCZ over Seattle. This looks to be going until the early morning hours. 

Yeah radar looks to be filling in to the west. Wonder if we could pull off any significant accumulation beyond a dusting.

Post it please

From what I can tell on Pivotal, UKMET looks similar to other 00Z guidance. Pretty good consensus on a nice event from at least Tacoma-Everett. Hopefully we see the Euro move south a touch.

Getting some really good snow here now after having flurries for a few hours. Don't think it'll last but it looks nice

00Z models looking great for Seattle area! It's gonna be close but hopefully we can thread the needle.
