Those wind field maps of the strait are a bit deceptive. Every storm so far where there is a dead zone over the Snohomish river valley still get the southerly shift and then the four hour wind wave that blasts in from Whidby.

Somewhat funny-- the NWS forecasts for Seattle and Portland are similar-- yet NWS Portland refuses to (unlike Seattle) pull the trigger on a HWW.

How about all this rain?   SEA is at 6.62 inches for December... normal is 5.72 inches.

Should go over 40 inches for 2022 by tomorrow making it another wet calendar year despite recording setting drought for 5 months in the middle.   Pretty amazing.   

Also should be wetter than normal for the new water year by tomorrow as well.    Making up lots of ground this week.

Quality north bend snow pile47E8366E-76C0-4C2E-96B3-1FA187E8F500.thumb.jpeg.4c4462f93f3365b1bb2cb8f43e03338c.jpeg

That is sooooo much better than the complete mess down there just 48 hours ago.    You couldn't even walk in that gas station parking lot over the weekend... it was a solid sheet of ice.  

Side note... our neighbor has owned that gas station for several decades.   He also sponsors the fireworks show in the summer.   He and his wife were born and raised in North Bend and they are in their 70s now.   They started spending winters in Hawaii about 5 years ago.   I bet I could make them homesick if I sent them this pic.  😀

I hope so, shows barely a breeze up here. 

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just breezy up there. The lows track isn’t really favorable for strong winds in the NW interior. Comes in right over the top of NW WA and the highest winds are going to be to the south of the low.

Guess the westerly surge down to the strait is no longer happening. Too bad. 

Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth!
