That was really wet and heavy. Great sign.

mtep Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 23 minutes ago, snow_wizard said: It was probably the surface pressure gradient having too much of a southerly component to it. Once the Fraser outflow gets cut off Bellingham skyrockets easily. Then of course the next day the moisture was too far south. 20 minutes ago, BLI snowman said: Low placement was a big factor. With the low centered rather closely to your NW over northern Vancouver Island upon its approach, you were at an unfortunate trajectory to really maximize the downsloping southeasterlies off of the Chuckanuts that Bellingham proper is extremely prone to. It was a relatively shallow wind field though, so Lynden and places north of Pole Road never scoured out until the low had passed. I think the same localized downslope warming occurred in some other parts of NW WA near the Cascades, including Winterdog's area, while other places a little further west benefitted from the ESE flow. Thank you both! I really appreciate the info. If you dont mind, I'm curious what the difference was from Randy south? Was there a second low east of the central/south sound that maintained easterly flow for the region? Sorry I dont remember how the maps looked that night I was busy complaining about the 36 degree rain to my girlfriend lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
