Carved a model riding pumpkin this year

FWIW 00z ICON looks more like GEM than 12z which was more Euro/US

Day 6 (Past 4 runs) Okay. Okay. Much better phasing with the PV/trough too.

I'm around 2.5" for the month.  We've had a lot of shadowing here.

I’m close enough to the Coast Mountains to benefit some from upsloping. Would estimate my area gets around 55" in a typical year. North Vancouver, right up against the mountains gets 80”. YVR airport only gets around 47" because they are further south yet and benefit less from upsloping.

They call it Raincouver for a reason!

Bellingham only gets around 35"/year because it’s too far from the Coast Mountains to benefit from upsloping.
