luterra Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 1 hour ago, Eujunga said: Ended up with 0.73" yesterday and 0.13" this morning for a storm total of 0.86". Still much less than what was modeled, but I'm just glad to be in an active pattern rather than endless ridging. You didn't make it to my 1" bet, though it appears that most stations in the Eugene area did, e.g. 1.06" at the airport. We only made it to 0.89" at my place in Corvallis. The almost-straight-westerly, low-altitude AR created some powerful rain-shadow effects from coast range terrain - a smaller version of the Seattle donut hole. Corvallis airport, in the rain shadow of Marys Peak (4100'), recorded only 0.60" in the last 24 hours. Just five miles north of me the 24-hr totals increase to 1.5", and Monroe to the south of the rain shadow is at 1.22". The local-scale variation and shadowing effects of this event were definitely on the extreme side, e.g. less than an inch across most of the Portland metro with areas of 6"+ in the adjacent coast range and Cascades. Impressive lowland totals straight east of the Columbia River gap in the coast range: 4"+ around Longview. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tons of tree limbs, leaves, and junk everywhere. Nothing some cleaning couldn't solve. I noticed earlier this morning the PUD website went down when I was trying to find outage info. Opposite of you, I've only ever lost power at this house once before. I don't have a generator but probably should invest in one just in case. Chilly in the house, down to about 64F with no heat on since the power went out. I honestly didn't think I'd have power most of the day. Again thanks everyone for all the info and updates last night.

bainbridgekid Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 The snow maps didn't used to be like this. They must have changed something. They've always been far from perfect and always had biases, but this is ridiculous. The number of times they've shown literally 10+ inches of snow here within 48 hours while predicting temperatures well above freezing the last couple years has been extremely frustrating. The 12z GFS does think that heavy band will drop Everett to 33 degrees tonight around 4 AM though. Very little chance that comes close to happening though. 38 degree rain is much more reasonable. 3 1 1 Everett Snowfall (510 feet elevation) Snow since February 2019: 91" 2023-24: 6" 2022-23: 17.5" 2021-22: 17.75" 2020-21: 14.5” 2019-20: 10.5" 2018-19: 24.75" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
