MossMan Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 The Euro is far sturdier with the block so it keeps the whole region colder through the end of the week. GEM is somewhat similar but a bit milder overall. Both setup the Puget Sound region for a little overrunning action next weekend, but it would be a quick event.Thanks! I don't remember a time where I have followed this forum so closely...nearly a month straight of possible (and actual) events...instead of endless ridges over us or split flows week after week!

Perturbed Member Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Pretty interesting how much snowier it is just west of the metro, even at 200 ft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayla Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Even the GFS shows 1-3" of snow for the Portland region on Wednesday at this point, and looks likely to keep us in a low level cold pattern trough Friday. Could be worse I guess, but it certainly goes haywire with that cutoff low. Yeah. Just amazing that we still have have very little idea what's going to happen beyond Tuesday even after the 12z runs today.

Winterdog Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Looks like the northern folks on this forum have thrown in the towel. Nearly all those posting today are from Seattle southward with most from Oregon. The past few years our cold intrusions have tended to be backdoor and favoring those living in gorge affected areas. To quote an oft used phrase.. It is what it is. Not much to write home about from a northern perspective on the first runs of 2017. I hope Jim is still with us. Over and out from Arlington.
