Snowman5678 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 That is encouraging. You live in Bothell?Nope, I live in between Redmond and Duvall. temp of 39 here with a dp of 32. Doesn't look like i'll do too well here. Seems like dp's are lower to my north and south. Betting on just cold rain here, maybe a mix.

Deweydog Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Timing is better though and a slightly cooler airmass. 12z GFS shows a healthy amount of precip. Still will be pretty tough to reach the 32 degree miracle mile.Timing could help a little. That one has a higher bust potential moisture side though.

BLI snowman Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Timing could help a little. That one has a higher bust potential moisture side though. Yeah, and sadly dry air advection between now and Tuesday evening looks pretty limited so it'll be a setup that's pretty reliant on some decent (>0.05") per hour precip rates to cool us down a bit. We'll see, looks more promising on recent runs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you squint your eyes, tilt your head, stick your tongue out and shake your leg you can see some very fine light flurries. Could also be my snow-deprived mind playing tricks on me. Who knows.

Snowman5678 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Holy crap guys! I went to go let the dogs out and it's RAINING! And chunky rain at that! I bet the roads will be chaos soon. Haha however I was surprised to see that it was raining considering webcams were relatively dry. My place tends to do relatively well with marginal situations but that hasn't been the case so far this winter. Places at lower elevations saw better stuff than we did earlier in the week. Interesting for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slide this forward or back a week and it's just a wet period preceeded and followed by blocking periods. Not true here. It takes a lot for PDX to get 15" of rain in a few weeks or see 25 consecutive days with measurable rain.

Gradient Keeper Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 7:00 AM Friday. East wind much? Talk about an extremely tight/strong PDX-DLS gradient!

How can it be so much lower there?I don't know, baffled myself unless my weather station is not accurate. Started early this morning with a dp of 30 but has been declining ever since. I figured it would have climbed when the precip started to meet the lowering temp but that isn't happening. Just got a report from the lake house which is a little higher than my house and it's sticking there. Heading over there in a few to watch the game. Edit: I just looked out again, grass turning white and heavy snow. Temp down to 33. Quote Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border.

Snowman5678 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Was up at the grocery store a couple miles down the road that is at about 575ft versus my 550ft. All snow there, meanwhile here its just a mix with mainly rain. A station near the store is reporting 38.6 with a dp of 31, meanwhile here its 38.1 with a dp of 34. I have no idea why our dp's have been continuously higher than the whole area around us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman5678 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 I'm on Tolt Highlands just a little east of Carnation, not to be confused with Tolt Hill to the west of Carnation. Tolt Highlands is the long, windy, gravel hill off Entwhistle.Oh okay, gotcha! I always figured that area would be pretty good for snow too.
