Timmy Supercell Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 And as of 11am K-Falls is now reporting 47 degrees and sunshine with a 33mph west wind... And another notable thing, most of my accumulation happened with temps 35-36 degrees. Can't say I've seen that too many times, at least with events more than an inch or two. It was heavy enough that I'd say more inches would have happened had the temps been 30-32...

VancouverIslandSouth Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I'm not a fan of WRF snow maps but if this has any shred of truth Environment Canada is going to get a lot of flack for its winter storm warning and forecast of 4"+ in the lower mainland. Perhaps the WRF is seeing only freezing rain over there? Personally I have a hard time believing that area will be missed by the snow. http://www.atmos.washington.edu/wrfrt/data/2017020800/images_d3/wa_snow24.36.0000.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I think i will get some for sure. The faster and heavier the precip comes in the better.

Well South/Central Oregon got it in December, Northern Oregon/Southern WA in January, now Central WA has got hit in February.

The northern extent has shifted south a little, Victoria didn't do very well until this last event. What's been lacking is the classic Arctic shortwave with a low pressure system forming in northern BC and riding down the coast. That's almost always a sure way to get a good snowfall to Seattle-Bellingham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VancouverIslandSouth Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 You like the late Feb/early March timeframe? Yes, albeit with no scientific backing, but it would be roughly inline with the frequency of cold snaps this year.

Tenochtitlan Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Yeah, I guess Bellingham has been halfway between Seattle and the SW Mainland for how good this winter's been. I've had 12 or 13 total days of snow on the ground. it's such a pretty night, the moon is shining on 4 inches of snow. The WECU thermometer read 22F on my walk home, so it's below the NWS forecast low already. best snow night I've seen since 2012 in Seattle I'm hoping we get an inch or two more tomorrow. I always love it when snow falls on snowcover, which doesn't happen too often around here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx_statman Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 -7/-25 today in Cut Bank, MT (2/7). Coldest day there since 11/30/2014. So this turned out to be a pretty impressive shot of Arctic air into MT. Its too bad (or fortunate for those sick of winter weather) that more of this cold air didn't slide into the Columbia Basin and down the Gorge...or we'd be dealing with another major winter storm tomorrow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
