PSA:
The NWS always appreciates observations, especially detailed observations that everyone on here is capable of giving. That can be done thru Twitter, as they often set up a feed for that, or the mPing app. That can include final snowfall amounts, when the snow starts/stops, precip type, dew point, etc
This helps them with short term forecasts as well as future forecasts as they can learn from them. A few years ago they had a freezing rain advisory for Leavenworth, but I notified
Not sure if people are aware or not, but WA had a super colossal (Mount Mazama type) eruption about where Mount Baker currently sits around a million years ago. It is called the Kulshan Caldera, and they know it buried the Seattle area with a very thick layer of ash. It was close to a glacial maximum so prevailing winds were northerly at the time. The best deposit of ash they found was around Lake Tapps. Very close to here in fact.
