Cloud Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 Fwiw, just catching up on some details, the next low entering from the mouth of the Columbia Wednesday night into Thursday morning is quite ideal for the Seattle area. Temps appears to be cold enough. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanNyberg Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 This is boring, I know, but I want to clarify one thing from earlier because I feel bad. I stand by my criticism of the weird tone the NWS took in their last two AFDs, but I did want to make sure that I clearly stated that I fully respect and admire the folks that do that job. It is thankless and extremely difficult that comes with huge consequences if (and when) a forecast is missed. They are human, the tools are imperfect, and this region is unforgiving. Their decisions on watches and warnings move government resources, effect schools and business operations, and set a general "vibe" for the entire region. A premature WSW can send folks flying to the grocery store, only to eat their extra cereal as it simply rains outside. On the other hand, if they're too scared to pull the trigger, it can leave folks stranded mid-travel, impact the safety of children, and endanger our most vulnerable. While I took issue with the tone of the last few days, I do not envy the job they have nor do I take for granted all that they have to take into consideration. We are sulking about some missed snow totals, but imagine if you had to deal with personally being bummed, but also having triggered dozens of unnecessary precautionary steps. It would make things 1,000 times worse. Okay, now I can rest easy. LOL. You know folks at NWS scroll through boards like this and I just wanted to make sure I didn't leave any impression other than this one. 8 1 2 -------------------- Sean Nyberg IG: @SeanNyberg X: @SeanNyberg Facebook: Sean Nyberg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Meatyorologist Posted November 30, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 Just caught up on stuff. Thundersnow!!! Wow!!! Currently a wet non-sticking snow and a skiff on the grass from this morning. 34F with an east wind. Tomorrow night is rapidly evolving into something potentially very special for the Seattle area. Fellow 'Sounders, this could be not only the event of the week but if all things go right, we may be looking back on it as the event of the season. Lots of moisture to work with, stable, reliable dynamics, plenty of time to squeeze it all out, the temperatures to support it all as sticking snow, and actual precedents to compare it to (unlike today!) Of course it could all go south but the potential is great.
