Very chilly day.  Only had a high of 36 at home after a 30 degree low and currently 33 degrees.

A few years ago I got an email sent from the UW network letting me know that the forum contributed to the wider toxic culture in the weather enthusiast community.

18z EURO is running.  Lets see if the King pivots to the GFS

[MossMan]

I wonder if the forum will have any traffic tomorrow…

my phone usage will probably be up another 200% by the end of this week!

Temp at 34.2*F, DP at 31.8*F and we have flakes!  

It appears according to radar scope, any precip falling around the area right now is the white stuff, or at least some mixing.

It's VERY light, but yeah it IS snow. I wish the costal radar would come back up...!

If only temps were lower 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Looks like Silver Falls never got past their midnight high of 37 today, so probably 35-36 at our place, we’ll see when I get home from work. Too bad there wasn’t more moisture to work with because their airmass is perfect. But we never do well with NW flow in post frontal situations. SW or westerly shower orientation are our bread and butter.

4pm for Seattle...

Those dewpoints up in western Washington are pretty darn impressive.

So far this looks very close to the 12z which isn't a bad thing!

[skywatcher]

I've been trying my hardest to keep up with the forum the past few days, but at this post rate, there might be 300 pages by the end of the month!

Red is temps...  0km or near surface... green is DP... with high enough rates, we can get the temps down to DP or when the air is saturated enough and it'll turn to snow, evap cooling. IF we get there. 

Then obviously, you have the 850 and 500 levels in there as well.

Even if I don’t get snow at my house chances are I’ll end up having to drive somewhere that does get snow…IF this happens.

Eyeballing about a -22 gradient through the Fraser. Could see some monster drifts out of this locally if it verifies. Or, more likely, that pretty blue over my house disappears and I end up with a dry blast.

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

We might be in for a ride tomorrow. Dewpoints are crashing around the area!! 

[Nov1985]

It's GFS vs the world for snow past 1am on Wednesday. 18Z EC a touch earlier than the 12Z with the warmup.

Current Temp/DP spreads are really looking good. Great starting point ahead of the storm. As long as we hold onto offshore flow it's looking pretty good IMO from at least Seattle North and West toward Kitsap.

BLI: 32/12

Everett: 34/17

SEA: 38/22

DPs already in the 20s. Tomorrow looks interesting.

Stand by, I think I just saw my first flake of the season.

[Snownerd3000]

Got to run and take my son to Karate.  Will be following on mobile like a true degenerate.

I've been informed that I'll be in Bend for a couple of more days. Fine by me, the snow is still fresh and more walks with the doggie for me. Was 32 for a high at my location so very little melting other than where the sun hit it. Just shoveled the driveway. I did a crappy job due to inexperience and laziness. Made a tiny snowbank that could survive for a while.
