Kayla Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 The low should track a little east and fill, then reemerge to our south. Yeah. Isn't there a secondary low that is forming right now and tracks WSW which seems to enhance the wrap around moisture over PDX later this afternoon/evening? Or at least that's what the euro might be picking up on?

ShawniganLake Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 They have fog. That helps. Its 36 in Seattle with lots of sun breaks.36 with a north wind here as well. Could be worse. It's 41 in Victoria with 30mph northeast wind and no snow on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deweydog Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Man, that area near I-5 is seriously having a snowstorm this morning.Reminds me of February 2011. Kelso picked up about six inches with a sustained and well-placed quasi convergence zone. Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.

The Swamp Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Looks like a little wrap around treat rolling in from the east off the cascades showing up on radar. It does show bands of moisture over me but nothing falling. So maybe just a tease. Sadly I think that is just a tease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there a secondary low that is forming right now and tracks WSW which seems to enhance the wrap around moisture over PDX later this afternoon/evening? Or at least that's what the euro might be picking up on?All the models have hinted at a little deformation scud this afternoon and into tonight as the persistent lee side low helps the atmosphere squeeze out the last of its moisture. I suppose it's possible that process may be a little more prolonged with the overall slower cool down. Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.

luvssnow_spokane Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Wrap around moisture is coming off the cascades and causing it to snow here again. I do not expect any accumulation but nice to see snow fall during daylight hours. I have not seen that since 2012. Since then it has always snowed at night.

overcast Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 The variability of our weather in the Puget Sound lowlands amazes me. I just took the light rail back from downtown to Tukwila. No snow downtown, trace-inch throughout rainier valley, and over 3 inches at the light rail station in Tukwila, yet no accumulation a half mile down the hill in the valley, and just a trace here on the hill in Renton. Amazingly hit or miss with this first round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VancouverIslandSouth Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 36 with a north wind here as well. Could be worse. It's 41 in Victoria with 30mph northeast wind and no snow on the ground. About 1/2" of slowly melting snow in this part of Victoria. Everything was covered when I woke up but it's since melted off the roads. Sitting at 39F here with a 23F dewpoint. Looking south in that picture you can see the north side of the Olympics are getting absolutely dumped on right now. I'm still hopefully we'll pick up some strait-effect stuff when the real Arctic air starts funneling in and damming up against the Vancouver Island/Olympic mountains. http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p286/jemeric/IMG_3783_zps8q4hsdx9.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dairyd Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 I'm sitting at 40.8 right now. Not surprising as the cold air is bottled up north of the border until this low shifts south and east of the area. Will it? Or will it just fizzle out? NE wind just arrived. Snow is moving around.
