BLI snowman Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I think it's all going to come down to precipitation intensity. I forget what year it was but I think January 2000. I remember going to school and the weather man said 1000 foot snow levels as showers swirl in from the Pacific. It started snowing right when school started and wouldnt stop until after lunch time I think. I think we got a few inches or possibly more. I went home that day watched the news and the weather man showed the perfect heavy precip sit over PDX for several hours dropping the snow level to the Valley Floor. I'll always remember that. That was January 11, 2000. Portland area got a widespread wet 2-3" out of that, does seem like a good comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FroYoBro Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 My brother was at U of O law. He lived in the hills in the southern part of town. Had about 10" and lots of trees and branches down... As a side note, what was your favorite bar in Eugene and PLEASE do not say Taylor's. We lost a tree in the backyard of the house we were renting. Hmmmmm. Probably Taylor's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I think PDX was sitting in the upper 30s while that was happening. Unusual event to say the least. I tried to enjoy it while watching the UO webcams, such is the life of a snow deprived weather nut.PDX got snow with that event too. They were 32F with snow by late that evening. We had a solid 1.5-2" in Vancouver at the time. https://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KPDX/2012/3/21/DailyHistory.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perturbed Member Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 GFS warms up the surface in quite a hurry for the Thursday system, starts as snow and transitions to rain fairly quickly. Still better than the 18z though which had PDX at +6c 850mb really fast. Hopefully the overrunning event is a bit more fun than modeled.

Deweydog Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Nice. I'm not used to seeing you this bullish.Heavy precip, low thicknesses, and hopefully calm winds. Good timing too with precip starting early a.m. Winds look to be the biggest question. If see our typically southerly breezes it'll be a lot tougher battle. 1 Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopper 918 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 That little guy for Monday looks like fun too. I'm starting to like the idea of 2-3 inches if precip is as heavy as progged. At least for areas with a tiny bit of elevation. Yes and it looks to come in during the pre dawn hours, which is never a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bainbridgekid Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Canadian a bit colder than 12z, decent shot of snow on Monday for Portland.Completely dry NE of the low though, unlike the GFS and Euro. Basically bone dry Monday North of Olympia at face value. Still think convergence between the colder air and the Southerly flow should create enough dynamics for moisture up here. The overrunning thing Thursday looks beefy on the Canadian though. The low pulls back to the NW keeping offshore flow going longer.

Gradient Keeper Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I'm sorry you had such a scary experience, I've had a similar experience with a family member before. I know how disturbing it can be. I'm glad she is doing better though. Very scary I can relate. I hope your family member recovered from that is okay. Still shaken up a lot. She is doing much better. Thanks. I'm so sorry to here that DJ Droppin. You're a great son for taking care of your mom. I hope your mom has a fast recovery. I hope your mom loves snow as much as you do so if we can get some it will help her recovery.Thanks. Since my Father passed my Brother and I try to go above and beyond..... and now even more. She likes snow to an extent. Thanks for your thoughts Sorry to hear. Glad she is feeling a bit better now.Thanks very much God dude I am so sorry. Good thing you were there to help. If you aren't currently certified you should think about taking a first aid CPR class. Sometimes you save someone in a situation like that and they live 20 more years. Andrew is was horrifying. I think I should really consider CPR class. Thanks a lot. Oh man that is super scary and difficult thing to go through and I am so sorry. I have been through just such a thing and I know the feeling the imagery it leaves behind. *bro hugs* It is something we hope no one has to experience or witness..... thanks Hey looked at 00z GEM arctic trough almost digs over us. Models seem to be trending a touch colder past few runs. I like that. Ummm I see PDX-DLS -12mb on GEM as moisture arrives. I see arctic blast Gorge east. Block almost holds and reorganizes it was real close to being prolonged blast if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
