If anyone else wants to make fun of, dismiss, or insult those with disabilities, then go ahead and tell one of us. We'd be happy to streamline this process instead of having to wait until you say some stupid BS. Outpost wants to talk about this hitting close to home? Well he has no idea how close it hits to home for me, and likely most others on this forum and alive on earth.

Next few days could be pretty interesting. NWS disc. sounds like Saturday night into Sunday morning would be the best chance for low snow levels. Still looks like many places including here could see a freezing low temp early next week too.

That would make this winter an solid A with a cherry on top. 

Would this be a late snowfall for 2021-22 or maybe the first snowfall of 2022-23??    The lines are getting blurry now.   😃

Okay Winter, you win. Can we start having a Spring yet??

If this verifies, we'd see our latest below zero temp on record, by a long shot. April 2nd 1936 being the record.

This gets said a lot here. Seems like these patterns always happen either a couple months too early or a couple months too late... but never in January. Hmmmmm

Yeah it’s quite annoying. Though Matt says January 2023 will be our time to shine!

No severe weather or sub-90°F weather here in summer without troughing. So yeah it’s the only weather to get excited about.

The 12z GFS looks amazing for next week. Would be a very chilly April week and lots of cold mountain snow. 

On pivotal, it's showing 111" on Mt. Hood through hour 153, and 40-60"+ for most of the Cascades above 3,000. Even the Southern Oregon Cascades get a few feet on this run, amounts taper off further north in Washington, but still very heavy snow in the South Washington Cascades, and still several feet further north.

Geeze.  The 6z ECMWF was showing significant lowland snowfall only a few days out.  This might actually have a shot at happening.

We did really good in December last winter though.  Can we finally get the January monkey off our back this winter?  Right now at least another decent winter looks like a really good bet with no El Nino.  Pretty remarkable how many winters have had at least something good since 2015-16.  Worlds better than 1999-2000 through 2005-06.

The models are flirting with an all time record low max for this late in the season on Sunday.  We'll have to keep an eye on that one.

We had a max of 36 on 4/21/08, so I doubt we hit that benchmark. The record min/max of 42 on Sunday and Monday could be in doubt. 

Looking through the data, it looks like we had a 38/25 on 4/30/49. What the hell.

This is a deep trough in April... yeah I could get used to this.   I would be cheering on troughs just like you.   😀
