I know the highest elevation there.  Don't try to be smart, be helpful.  What did that bring to the conversation really?

A downvote and a weenie.  Looks a lot like 2012 forums.  Be better.

Gross spring come Saturday evening 

[snow_wizard]

This looks like a BFD for Seattle.

Full week of cold and snow

There is already some hints of things getting cold again around New Years.

Looks good here right now but I’m not a huge fan of only being 40 miles north of the screw zone here. Things aren’t settled yet but I think the odds are on our side here.

Most likely happening.  Been watching this for a few days.  2000' snow levels probably but potential for surprises.

I'm kind of interested to see how the wind will make the snow blow and drift as we get later into the week.

BTW this run pushed the snow band tomorrow night south a little bit.  We get at least some with it if it's correct.

I'm torn between rooting for snow at my location and minimal ZR through the Gorge/Portland FRI.

Not so bad.  Higher peaks get snow and we get beneficial rain.  Would you rather have a Rex Block??

No, I actually like extreme rain events.

[snow_wizard]

Arctic front almost to Sumas now.

I still think there’s a worst case scenario of being a bit too far south here even. I don’t think it’ll happen but with the major model volatility I’m not gonna spike the football just yet been a lot of ups and downs this week.

I have some amazing stories of heavy rain in Bothell.  I don't know your age but the early 2000s were epic in Bothell for heavy rains.

I've been there a couple of times. My mom used to date someone from there before he passed.

One summer we were up there, I think it was 2004, and there was an epic thunderstorm. It was so awesome his cocker spaniel was shiiting everywhere. It was epic

-8 at Burns now. -12 in Lakeview.

Yep, ain't easy being a Portland area weanie the past few years. Didn't you get at least a few inches this season being on the west hills though?

Eventually we will get a 1/2004, 12/2008, 2/2014 or 1/2017 caliber event again....

Thanks, @Kolk1604.  With Tim not posting I was wondering when the warm up would be posted.

Cheers from the market.

Pretty similar but a lot of the bands were just north of you.  Of course I don't have to tell you the difference between Woodinville and Redmond.  Microclimates are so much fun.

We need to shut down the Pacific until we figure out what the heck is going on!
