BLI snowman Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 8 minutes ago, Doiinko said: I think Mark Nelsen has said that the west metro area is pretty bad for extreme amounts of snow as well. Not sure if that includes my area, as we do better than Hillsboro/Beaverton a lot of the time, but the west metro does seem to miss out on the snow a lot. The inner west metro (Hillsboro/Tigard/Beaverton) really needs strong gorge outflow to get the bigger totals. Like with the Willamette Valley to the south, they'll often end up on the wrong side of the equation when there's a shallow gorge outflow or warm air bubble aloft type of event like January 1980, January 1998, and February 2021. Once you get west of Hillsboro that issue is negated more by the cold air damming you get by being closer to the Coast Range. So Gaston, Forest Grove, Banks, and North Plains can do pretty well with the more borderline overrunning events when Portland doesn't. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 I suspect marine inversions as shallow as those Bainbridge refers to probably occur during ridgy patterns/mid level subsidence. Correct? Just watching visible satellite loops out there over the years it’s clear clouds preferentially bank against and over the terrain east of puget sound whenever a summer trough/ULL passes to the north. Seems like textbook orographic lifting to me.

TT-SEA Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 Big picture... the biggest disadvantage in my area is during spring troughing. And that is normally only half of the time in spring. But also why spring is my least favorite time of year. Jim has the said the same thing for the same reason... its too gloomy at times. The rest of the year... I don't really feel disadvantaged in my area in terms of sun. And often have an advantage in the fall and winter... or more often it's just cloudy everywhere. 1 1 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of ensemble spread in the long range but it’s looking generally cool to near average Average of phase 8-1 MJO orbits during the first half of June during -ENSO doesn’t have a strong signal in the PNW either way. Though of course it’s always state dependent in the end. Strongest signals are for -NAO and a weaker 4CH during that part of the cycle. The resulting pattern often has troughing on both the east and west coasts with ridging in the middle, but not always. But the signal does trend colder in the PNW as it continues into phases 2-3-4 (Indian Ocean/Indo-Pacific). However, under certain boundary conditions that evolution opens the door to a sprawling death ridge that builds out from the Plains and eventually smothers most the country, which is what I’m worried about this summer, since the background state is towards poleward z-cells. Years like 1988, 1995, 2012, 2016, etc, come to mind. And basically the entire dust bowl period. 1 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like the convective frontogenesis really exploded in and around both sides of the West Hills with some orographic flavor on 1/10/17. PDX and points east had some dry air mixing in during the latter stages of that and only had 8", but downtown had 12" and there were reports of 20" in the West Hills. I live in a pretty ideal location within the metro and got nailed with both, 15"+ in February 2021 and 12"+ in January 2017. I like this area because downsloping and gorge outflow really doesn't hamper us as much as a bit further to the east, but we still benefit from the low level cold air being near the gorge.

In 2014 I had about 9 inches of snow, how was that event in the east metro area/areas in Clark County? I wasn't living here at the time, but like many of our deeper outflow events, it seemed like that was another one where the easterlies dried things out closer to the river, and then amounts increased in the less wind-prone areas. PDX measured 7.3" with that but I know amounts really increased to the north and west in Clark County. I think my current location had around 12" that week, most of which fell on the 6th during that big deformation zone that stretch out to the coast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
