I'll tell you about it, I was a Senior in High School. You know, that one time in your life you don't make up snow days. So I'm like bring them all on. Yeah, big disappointment. We had chances of snow, but fell apart the last second. Like one time this low came down the coast and was suppose to swing inland, but it was like duces and went down the coast and warmed us up! 2004 and 2006 were good though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally you’d figure a pattern like this would deliver a lot of fog but there’s been almost none here.

This last shot of continental was so dry that fog was pretty much out of the question with the usually dry ground right now. Before that we had below normal 850s for a long time earlier in the month so the cold was more legit than inversionary. Different variations of cold. 2 Death To Warm Anomalies!

We had that happen to us in January and got 3-4 feet of snow in 24 hours. The low stayed to the South so the warm air didn't make it to us so it stayed all snow. And it also led to good upslope winds which enhanced the snow. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nov1985 Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 12Z GFS: Slushy snow in the Puget Sound area possible before cold air looks to keep daytime high temps just below freezing on Dec 2 and Dec 4. 850 temps also start look good from the morning of Dec 2.

Cascadia_Wx Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Assuming today stays below 50 there (they seem to be on track) even hot box PDX will have spent half the month to this point with highs in the 40s. Pretty impressive for the first 2/3 of November. 14/20 days with sub-50 highs here so far.

Went to Madras this morning and most of town was broken up except for the west side of town on the plateau on to Warm Springs. When I got up at 6:30 you could see the low clouds and fog banked up against Juniper Butte, which is normal for these patterns.

Interesting that this run is better. NWS Seattle and Portland in their apparently Coordinated AFDs mention this: Clusters are showing a suppressed ridge over Western U.S as a possible outcome instead of the low pressure dipping from the north. It does seem more likely that a pattern change is evident next week, but confidence is low at this time. Maybe this run is showing more agreement on a more troughy solution. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously getting more snow more than makes up for it, but that is more uncommon than them getting the shaft on the cold mins in certain situations. There are probably microclimates around there where that isn't a problem though. I've heard there is an abnormal amount of hot air being blown in a neighborhood in that area 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View of Orcas Island as well . Helped my ex move up there these past few days. We get along so I’ll be using her place here and there to explore up there. I may hang a nest cam and weather equipment as well. This photo is from her back deck looking north. Also a nice size flag across the way for measuring wind strength. Just gorgeous area and so excited for me…lol! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
