snow_wizard Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I think its going to take work to overcome our dry air mass and we do not have the moisture push we had last Thursday.

HighlandExperience Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Anyone notice the feature on the sat loop that has broken off the main storm and is headed nw toward us? Like i said a few hrs ago we might get a push of precip off the coast from west to east. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT-SEA Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I've noticed it and advertised it. It was not on the models. Its been on the HRRR model on all day.

snow_wizard Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 You can actually see some shear going on when you look at the radar in snow mode.

Phil Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Good deal!Yeah, this was probably just a warm-up. Surf zone amplifies around/just after New Years, blowing up the NPAC high again while the Scandinavian ridge attempts to nudge poleward. End result: More winter.

Phil Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Thanks Phil!!! This time I mean it!!Haha. You're welcome. While the (initial) longitudinal location of the block may be somewhat challenging, eventually (through discontinuous retrogression), you will score an Arctic blast and some additional snowfall opportunities.

FroYoBro Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Just took me 2 hours to get home. 217 was basically a parking lot. Pretty good snow here in Tigard.

Took me over two hours to get home. It normally would have taken 20 minutes. I saw 2 buses stuck on the side of the road with kids. I also helped push a few cars up a very slight incline in Tigard. It is a mess. BUT I LIKE SNOW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 1/3 inch short, best I can tell.It's about the same here too. It's been pretty windy though, as I said earlier, so there are some spots that are still totally bare and others with 5-6" drifts. I'd like to think that even though the DZ isn't all that dynamic it could still be a boone to any location it stalls over. They tend to go semi-stationary some times. Also winds are lightening up now so I could get some more uniform coverage. I'm being picky now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
