Skagit Weather Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 It's amazing how much what looked like was going to be a wet weekend has fallen apart up here. Sure there will be clouds, but we may stay dry for the rest of the weekend? Kind of crazy, considering how the models were showing 0.5-1" of rain as late as yesterday. It's also remarkable how dry the second half of the month has been up here. Since the 16th I've picked up 0.37" which is significantly below average. Of course maybe we'll have some showers come through over the next few days, but I've been surprised how nice it has been.

smerfylicious Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 9 hours ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: That is a good question! July is quite a bit wetter in your area too. I went on PRISM and compared our locations. Your area looks like it averaged 85.92" in the 1991-2020 period, my location 76.13", so your location averages about 10" more rain a year. This is with 800m resolution, so likely pretty accurate. Here are how the averages broke down over time, this is nice data since Silver Falls precip data has gotten a bit spotty over the past decade or so. TIM ME Jan 11.48" 10.57" Feb 8.04" 8.14" Mar 9.23" 9.21" April 7.89" 7.94" May 5.44" 5.10" June 4.64" 3.28" July 1.81" 0.64" Aug 1.92" 0.61" Sept 4.01" 2.48" Oct 8.49" 5.92" Nov 12.41" 10.12" Dec 10.56" 12.12" Looks like our area is slightly wetter than your area Feb-April (About the same), and wetter in December. I've never looked at PRISM before. What a cool resource! Mine would be: Jan 9.35 Feb 6.54 Mar 7.08 April 5.99 May 4.73 June 3.95 July 1.46 Aug 1.72 Sept 3.56 Oct 7.18 Nov 10.08 Dec 8.07 That's not terribly far off from what I've noticed.

I am torn. It has been about as persistently wet as it can be here and it's been unusually cold, but that has also prevented all day marine layer stratus from locking in and that would probably be worse. At least with this pattern there are some meaningful sun breaks on most days. Regardless... we probably won't see a spring as bad as this one in terms of persistent rain and cold for quite some time. 1 1 1 2 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...

Primarily because there are like 20 wineries and endless vineyards with a few miles. So I will post some nice pics of Toppenish as you requested and give it some love.
