My snow depth is 2-3 inches. Nothing fell today. This is still an official White Christmas, correct???

Makes no sense to me either, that's why I thought I'd share it...

It’s a holiday mystery.

60-burger already achieved here at 11 a.m.!

Santa left quite the lump of coal in Eugene's stocking with every model except the Euro showing systems splitting right over Oregon and drastically reduced QPF for the coming week. A few days ago they were promising 6"-8" of rain. Now the NAM is showing 0.9", and it will probably prove to be the most accurate. Yes, this is a weenie post.

Eugene was in the 60s in early January 1969 after the snow/ice storm farther north. Then of course they had the massive snowstorms later on that month.

Maybe that could happen this year!

It's possible. Next snow event could well be a south valley special.

Up here, we’re now overdue now for our own patented way to achieve a snowfail: a big dry blast that furnishes the cold air for points south to get the goods.

Been off the forum since this morning (or yesterday morning now, I suppose). Really shocked to see how quickly the snow vanished for many of you on Saturday. Mine basically looks the same as it did before the warmup, except coated in ice, and slush developing in the low spots,  even with temps reaching into the mid-40s.

Looks like we dodged the flood bullet in the warmup, which has been occupying a lot of my headspace the past 48 hours.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Looks like I spoke too soon. Sounds like ice dams and possibly the king tides caused a very rapid and scary rise near the mouth of the Nooksack. Marietta was evacuated in the middle of the night.

Ah yes, I'm very familiar with taking one for the team by suffering through bitter dry wind so that Puget Sound can get dumped on. A "Sumas Special."

Just drove to Bellingham.    Temp was 48 all the way from Snoqualmie Ridge to north of Arlington and then started going up.   51 at Randy's exit and then peaked at 54 just before Mt Vernon.    Then dropped back into the mid 40s once we got to Whatcom County line.   Sky was the brightest around Randy's area.    

There was some road spray the entire way and yet never saw an actual rain drop.   Combination of time of year and relatively warm temps with near 100% humidity.  The roads don't really dry out in weather like this. 

Some big snowbanks in the Tulalip parking lot and some big snowbanks left over up here in Bellingham too.   Lots of branches down between I-5 and my parent's house north of Lake Whatcom.

Yeah it’s dry here at the moment finally. 48 at my house. The moisture thing is interesting, this is under my covered portion of the deck, every everywhere is soaking wet from the high moisture content and I’m assuming the cold ground conflicting with the warm air temps?

I haven't posted any new pics taken today for the same reason. Sad-looking melting slush is not very festive.

It’s awful… But even most winters that delivered the goods had big

Merry Christmas everyone! Glad to have been a part of these fun past few weeks! Currently 49.0. I’ve been hearing rumors that a SSW event is supposed to happen in early January so I’ve got a feeling late January is definitely on the table for some fun!
