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
June also for Southwestern Oregon. Does this data include the June 2021 heatwave? My guessing is if we do another 30-Year Trend in the next decade or so then the pink will slowly creep north towards Western Oregon and Washington with June trending the warmest.
Another thing I noticed is in parts of Alaska, February is the warmest. That makes sense because over the past 30 years we have had some big time February Arctic Blast here in the PNW while there is big ridging in Alaska. In my opinion this trend might also continue and the February will slowly overtake October as the month trending the warmest up in Alaska.
If my hypothesis is correct then that means Spring will become shorter and shorter as Winter ends later than usual and Summer beings earlier.
