  1. Still not much warming in the Portland area ahead of the precipitation. Some of the cooler spots may be able to get a little sticking snow.
  2. Looks pretty moist up there now. Are you pretty close to freezing? Moisture has been hanging around to my north all day today. Still haven't seen anything fall from the sky yet.
  3. I at least still have hope that we will see a decent transition event out of this. We are going to get some really nice offshore flow going. Still tons of possibilities.
  4. Also looks like it is bombing north at the last update. Lol, this should be a simple low to track over the next week!
  5. It eventually comes in and gives the Portland area a real nice ice storm.
  6. This is the third warning shot of the winter. 3 warning shots = HUGE BLAST COMING
  7. An excerpt from Mark's latest blog post. "The NWS is going for a Portland snowstorm tonight and Sunday morning, but I think it’s unlikely. They are forecasting 1-3″ in the metro area (3″ on hills) and have a winter weather advisory up starting at 10pm. I feel that’s way overdone for several reasons. The biggest is that we’re in mild onshore flow through around sunrise Sunday. In fact southwest wind picks up this evening and continues until almost day break. Freezing levels are above 1,000′ through 7am tomorrow, when almost all of the moisture will be falling out of the sky. I’ve seen this many times here in Portland. We’ll be too warm down at the valley floor until sometime after 4am to even think about snow sticking down here. There is excellent model agreement on this as well. That southwesterly breeze is a real killer (for snow) UNLESS the atmosphere is colder than what we’re expecting now. Take a look at model snow forecasts from the ECMWF, WRF-GFS, & RPM and they agree." Once again calling the NWS out!
  8. Hope you do well. Hopefully you can post some snow pictures tomorrow morning.
  9. Of course we could still easily get some snow. I am just preparing my weenie mind.
  10. I'm starting to think it is becoming likely that I won't get any snow out of this pattern. Can't like the persistent theme of breaking the offshore flow up with a low coming from way NW.
  11. It also seems that the 12z Euro has gotten rid of the idea of possibly an earlier transition event mid week. Don't see any lows.
  12. Portland may actually have more impressive highs with this pattern. They won't get as cold at night though. Pretty impressive low level cold pouring through the Gorge.
