KingstonWX Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 4 minutes ago, HoodCanalBridge said: My wife and I live across the street from the canal in our neighborhood with barely a sliver of a view. It's definitely a goal to be on the water some day! You can get on the canal quite a bit cheaper once you cross the bridge. As my wealthy retired neighbor across the street says, they're not really building much more water front! I have thought about Chimacum area waterfront, Shine, etc. over there, but I just can't replicate what I have here, and I bought in 2012 so I got a smokin deal. Hard to get anything even remotely comparable now, even for the massive haul I'd get if I sold. I think I'd need to move to Eastern WA or somewhere over on the OlyPen to really being able to cash out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Just pounding here. This is already a good event and we still have a solid 6-8 hrs of precip left. 5 1 We come from the land of the ice and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCola Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Rain/snow mix in Belltown. I'm hoping Mother Nature delivers here, since we were left behind the last two rounds. It's going to be close temperature wise though 35 F / 30 F. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I have dropped to 35 and have a real thick slushy substance falling. Who knows, it may happen. It's dumping, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to pick a spot on the water it would be for sure somewhere around seabeck. Million dollar view. Problem is most everything is out of my price range. But you can be on the water and still do good with snow events. I actually love Seabeck. The water and mountain views are amazing, and the snow is amazing, but the tweakers are horrendous. Plus it has the same problem Woodinville does, where it just stays way too dark in a lot of places and gets kinda depressing. Also, Smokin' Robinsons closed and moved to McClouds in Bremerton, so that's almost a deal breaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perturbed Member Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 4 minutes ago, Deweydog said: Sunday’s system is a game time decision on just about every level with a pretty marginal upside. Surface temps at best will probably be in 33-34 range at the zenith of the event within whatever deformation bullseye. Euro shows DPs in the teens and temps in the mid 30s early Sunday AM at PDX. You don't think those numbers will materialize? It seems like that airmass with steady precip should get it done. IMO the question is more about if the precip materializes more than the airmass. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time. In 2022 it was a 5 minute walk separating 2 and 5 inches of snow on the ground. The effect of elevation is bigger on Bainbridge than anywhere I’ve ever lived. In 2007-08 I got 19” between a bunch of different events at 300’ and my friend who lives right on the water literally got less than 2”.

Yes they are, but their concentration is not. You'd be hard pressed to see many tweakers in Bainbridge or in the nice areas of Kingston, outside of maybe some high school kids experimenting or some weirdos camping in the woods.

Ice_is_Everywhere Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 A robust breeze has started here, from the east I think. I think it’s eating some of the precip. What snow is falling is tiny. 33/32dp still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
