jcmcgaffey Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Wow... I did not realize how much rain had fallen at SEA. Much less here since yesterday (only about 1.25 inches) with offshore flow keeping the precip rate lower.Ya 1.63 yesterday and over an inch today. It has been pouring nonstop since yesterday morning with no breaks until now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Andrew called it, lol. I was just reporting what the ECMWF shows. Should I not report what the ECMWF surface map shows for upcoming period we have been discussing? I will do the same thing if and when it show low clouds and fog as well. And I think that might still be the case. Andrew said I would deny any foggy inversion and then post sunny pictures. I would bet on a foggy inversion right now given the time of year and flat gradients. So if its sunny all week then I am wrong as well.

Bryant Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 It's almost like you're taunting me to post pics of the feet of snow I had on the ground last month with this post.So, winter is over to the north, south and east (North Bend) of Puget Sound.

luvssnow_spokane Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Puget Sound got a good 4-12 inches of snow five years ago today if my memory serves me right.You are correct! That was the last time I have seen that much snow. Pretty much nothing other than a melting 1/2 inch since then... Here is are a few pics from my backyard. The good Ol'days! My daughter is now in College (second year) and son is graduating. A lot has changed but we are still rocken' the 1990 Astro Van you see in the background EDIT: it turned to freezing rain about an hour after those pics were taken (around 8am) and rained all day. So, yes it snowed but enjoying it was very short lived and we have gotten s**t since. Destroyed all of our trees too. 4 Quote My Weather Station https://tempestwx.com/station/61434 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvssnow_spokane Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 That Astro van will probably live another 20yrs! I know! .... it is rock solid. We got it used (in mint condition) when my son was three. It only had 27,000 on it. Was owned by an elderly couple who garaged it in Arizona and only used it for golf outings as they were snow birds. It was in excellent condition then and we bought it for only $3,400 and have had it for around 15 years. Many family trips and memories in it. 1 Quote My Weather Station https://tempestwx.com/station/61434 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Have to wonder if PDX will pop into the 50s a few days late next week with the ridging pattern shown. Persistent inversions get a little tougher to maintain going into the last week of January. We will have a chilly airmass going into it and hopefully still some snowcover east side, so that could help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
