The ironic part is that I actually love the climate and area Tim lives at. Lots of snow and rain, more thunderstorms. Active east wind events. Closeby interstate access, lots of trails. And I'm sure Tim would enjoy the climate of north Seattle better than where he currently lives.

All this being said, I would miss the classic PSCZ gust fronts during Spring/Fall. Showers tend to become more nebulous in the PSCZ as you head east.

The PSCZ is one of the things I miss about living in Shoreline. It was sort of fun to have our own private all-day rainfalls while the rest of the region was dry. Plus it often juiced up lowland snow events.

It's called clown range for a reason.

I think overall, everyone on this forum would be happier if all the WA posters moved to OR and vise versa. Especially with the N/S gradient we’ve seen in recent years. There are some exceptions of course; while some WA posters like troughy patterns in the spring and summer, I think every single OR poster likes troughy patterns.

OR is too dry/warm for me. The Willamette Valley doesn't really get that many sub 70°F days during the summer. During a normal summer in Seattle we'll get 10-20.

I think the OR posters wouldn’t mind a variety of troughs and ridges more had the last few years not been so warm/dry.

From January 21 to February 18, SEA had an astoudingly low 5 days with measurable rainfall, during one of the wettest stretches of the year!

This broke the previous record low of 8 days set in the infamously dry winter of 1977. 

Wow!

But January and February were wet months statistically because of 3 days of heavy rain at the start of January and 3 days of heavy rain at the end of February!!! We were actually due some dry weather after January and February!!

That might work. Most of the Oregon posters seem to favor cooler and wetter weather. Andrew seems to be doing well in his location this year, though. Nature has opened the skies and showered him with abundant blessings.

1977 was a +PNA snoozer.

Pouring here but seems like the action is mostly in okanogan highlands to the east today. Up to 3.62 inches so far YTD which is more than I recall having all of last year?? Of course it’s not the best at measuring snow melt but I think we only went into summer with 1.5 or something

I think most OR and SW WA people were seriously good with summer climo here until about 2015 or so. When summer climo started doing its best to channel Stockton, CA.

I saw Cliff Mass was talking recently about the unusual nature of the persistent rain this spring into early summer.  Sort of hard to talk about the recent and future weather without recognizing its pretty unusual.   Its obviously the most unusual aspect of the pattern right now.    Even if you love it.  👍

Should we stick to immediate weather?   Tomorrow looks dry and pleasant from about OLM northward as rain holds off until evening.  ECMWF also shows plenty of sun breaks on Sunday... certainly not a wash out day.     Quite a bit different than last Saturday and Sunday.

I just want <95° and some thunderstorms during the summer. Anything else is fine with me.

Nws Portland AFD mentioned a decent chance for thunderstorms on Sunday

Cold January!

That winter was a fascinating case study in the basic timeline of our inversion season in the PNW. Check out Pendleton's temps that winter. It was thoroughly ridgy basically the whole way through. But the cold/foggy ridging turned on a dime in the 2nd week of February and never looked back, flipping literally overnight to warm/sunny ridging on the 9th of February.

Oh for sure. I think most people like variety and for the pattern to avoid getting stuck on one thing for too long. Unless that’s cold or snow of course!
