Radar is just picking up snow echos in northwesterly flow coming off Duncan.Was snowing lightly in Duncan for a couple hours earlier. Getting the odd light flurry on and off here in Shawnigan lake.

Front Ranger Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 18z GFS backed off on the foot the 6z/12z showed for Thursday - now much closer to the Euro and much more reasonable, IMO. Anywhere from 3-7 inches along I-5 corridor in Western WA from Thurs night-Fri morning. It's funny, much closer in accumulations, but not closer at all in how it handles the approaching low.

Heavy Snow Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 I'm currently thinking a widespread 4"-6" snow for PDX Metro turning to ice sometime Thursday night. I don't see PDX thawing out until sometime Friday. I will see the 00z runs tonight and 12z runs tomorrow before making a final forecast.

luvssnow_spokane Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 FWIW, Scott Sistek over at KOMO is going with the Euro solution, forecasting 3-5 inches up and down the I-5 corridor in Western WA. Also mentions the possibilities for wind in the foothills, freezing rain, and potential for more snow events over the weekend and next week. Fairly bullish, but reasonable and I think he will end up mostly right. The Euro has been much more consistent in the strength/track of the low than the GFS. In the Euro we trust.I have tremendous respect for scott as he is my favorite public met up here. He usually is very good at calling this stuff overall.

Sometimesdylan Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Good morning everyone. 13 outside right now. Think I'm getting some snow later this afternoon, models showing anywhere from 3-6 to 8-14 inches of snow tonight into tomorrow. The GFS has the most, but has been consistently showing/growing in its forecast. The euro didn't show much until just yesterday. Overcast right now... something is coming in the sky. Can't wait for finals to get done with. I wanna be done with OB and Pediatric nursing!!! It's funny reading back on this as NOAA was predicting 3-6 for tonight and had issued a winter advisory... Between what the models were showing in liquid amounts and what the radar was showing with the precip arriving faster, I was thinking the CZ was going to set up over Juneau and not 40 miles west of it like NOAA was thinking. Well, NOAA just upgraded it to a Winter Storm Watch with 10-18 inches The text group I have here for weather was pretty stoked I guessed it (hopefully! still have to see...). Would not have done it without the knowledge I gained reading you guys! Currently snowing at a moderate amount, probably picked up a trace in the last hour.

kokaneekidz Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 You need to look at the marine section to realize they don't have a clue where this Low is headed. Hence; What is much less certain is the track and strength of the surfacelow which will impact winds Thursday night and Friday as the lownears the coastal waters. Confidence in the wind forecast for thatperiod is low. Kam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighlandExperience Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 It's semi-negligent on their part, I would agree. It's one thing to not take a swing at snow accumulation forecast yet (even though we are within 48 hours, I could understand), it's another to not even discuss the possibilities, models, trends, outcomes, etc. Alas, this is not the first conversation we have had on this forum about this topic. Happens all too often when they don't know which way the forecast will go.Seattle nws plays it conservative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
