Gradient Keeper Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Good news. Low level cold is now intensifying. I had bumped back up to 40.5, and earlier the winds were keeping my temperature steady, but the past 45 minutes the winds have become very gusty and temps/dewpoints are nose diving now 37.5, dewpoint 25.9. The first signs of that low level arctic air in the Columbia Basin surging into the Gorge and east of I-205. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Meatyorologist Posted December 3, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Went on a walk. Still buzzed after a party I threw this evening. Phenomenal day and a fitting end to the night. I love this place, this is the stuff I live for. At my house there's about 75% of the snow I saw 200' up on top of the hill. Still white everywhere. 13 1 Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 My son also told me it was dumping snow here at home... based on the radar. Which is not true. Just flurries here and no accumulation.

Back during the massive December 2008 snowpocalypse on Christmas Eve I shoveled the driveway and a large path all the way to the end of our cul-de-sac something like 250 feet in hopes our family friends could make it for our annual Christmas Eve get-together and dinner. After hours of shoveling of snow just over 2 feet in depth with drifts even higher they called and couldn't make it. Lol That SUCKED. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
