HighlandExperience Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 GFS Shows a solid 3-6 inches for Seattle area. I'd say 4-8 inches up in Whatcom county and Vancouver BC. I'd be happy with that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VancouverIslandSouth Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 Yeah the GEM is pretty much exactly the same as the GFS A little warmer tomorrow night/Saturday and further offshore with the initial low, but perhaps a bit better with the Sunday system.

snow_wizard Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 I find it hard to believe the East Puget Sound lowlands will have a good .10 to .15 of water equivalent (WRF number) tomorrow morning with the current single digit dew points. If so ZR or sleet seem pretty likely. Outside chance it could snow, but not likely. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

bainbridgekid Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 not here. I am about 5 miles south of port orchard at a friends house and its coming down good. Ground is white.Nice. You're still near the front edge of the band, so makes me wonder if you'll pick up a half inch or so in the next hour. Makes sense it would snow there much quicker though since Easterly flow is upslope out there. Hard to imagine much more than flurries East of the Sound with this band.

luminen Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 This climate is strange. We can go several consecutive winters without any meaningful snow and then we have one winter with tons of snow...depending on location of course. It just goes to show it doesn't take THAT much for a big snowstorm here. It's just a matter of getting past a certain threshold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
