Insane how many spots in the PNW are seeing snow in the air on an April afternoon. Neat.

 

Had a cold rain shower around noon that took it down to 39 degrees. Back up to 44, but those showers incoming look juicy.

This current forum is a continuation of an older forum 'americanwx' where the 'longtimers' used to post. Fred's been working on archiving the posts from over there and consolidating them here.

Oh!  I had no idea.  I remember looking at that other forum and trying to decide on joining it or this one.  I choose this one, and my application to join here was never granted and I waited a year and a half, lol.  Then I reapplied here and was approved. :D Thanks for sharing. 

 

I hope the process goes smoothly for you all!

12Z ECMWF shows a significant and extended AR event pointed directly at Western WA next week... which is good because this is definitely the place along that West Coast that desperately needs it the most.  🤪

Better than the alternative. OR/NorCal gets in on the action too.

So far... how would this event compare to April 1936 regionwide?

Looking through Downtown Portland records back to the 1870s... the only analogous snow totals I can find in April are 1933 and 1936. Funny how the winters that followed those two events were basically polar opposites.

Just had a very entheusiastic graupel shower! Temps down to 42°F from 47°F.

Nice. Never really threatened to stick here. You are a bit farther from the water, might be just enough.
