snow_wizard Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 5 minutes ago, KingstonWX said: As the current precip blob winds down, it will be interesting to see how cold it gets before the next one rolls in. This break may do many of us a nice favor. I'm hoping we can get some drier air from up north in here later. That can actually help enhance snowfall and of course makes the chances of it freezing up much higher. Death To Warm Anomalies!

Same here. I keep my TV on the ID channel because I like true crime noise in the background and they play it at least once during every commercial break.

It sounds cool on the ad because the sped up the track and cleaned up the sound. When I went back and listened to the Fleetwood Mac version I couldn’t believe how bad it sucked. I wonder how many people went to YouTube to see it performed live because of those commericals?

snow_wizard Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 4 minutes ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: The orientation of the snow showers matters a great deal for me. If they come in from the NW like on Monday I will almost always underachieve or get nothing. If they come from the west or better yet the wsw then they enhance over my area. That was part of how come we did so well in early November, the orientation of the showers trained them right along Waldo Hills and into the Silverton hills. WSW is great for me too. The way this trough played out is usually a good bet for here. Death To Warm Anomalies!

thickhog Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 33 minutes ago, Perturbed Member said: Yep unless you are one of these people like Andrew who has some elevation, showery snow around here is almost always a non event. There are some exceptions of course but we usually need the showers to be quite organized and not moving directly west to east. It is enough of a long shot that I usually set my expectations to 0 when I see this sort of thing on the models. Washington county is especially rough for this kind of stuff. I'd probably be decently satisfied with this climate if I moved up to 1500ft or so. If you can't beat the Coast Range, join it. I’m constantly looking at property on the Chehalem Mountains because you can get up around 1500 feet and have an actual winter most years. East Washington County is a nightmare if you like snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Just looked through the long range on the models... amazing how dry it looks. Even the EPS was really dry for the next 15 days. We seem to be in a repeating pattern of short bursts of heavy precip and long dry periods. The complete opposite of last fall and last spring. Oh... and winter starts in just about 5 hours. 2 1 **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
