BLI snowman Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 It was nice but it was certainly a long ways from the 20th century's best events. Which were generally a long ways from the 19th century's best. And on it goes. We won't be approaching 1861-62 or 1892-93 any time soon, there's really no question about that. 1915-16, 1949-50, or 1968-69 are about equally unlikely at this point.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 It was pretty amazing up here with both duration and snowfall as well as temps...no so much down there? Temps weren't as exciting down here. I think SLE hit 14 and EUG hit 10 on 12/16/08, but aside from that first cold shot temps, especially low temps were especially underwhelming. PDX never got below 20. There was quite a bit of snow Salem north, If you count Dec 14-25th as one sort of big event, it was the best continuous stretch for snow of my lifetime in the valley.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 On this date in 2017 a very overlooked snow event hit the Willamette Valley. It was not as significant in Salem as 12/14/16 and much less interesting than 1/10/17 at PDX, but it was the most widespread event of that winter in the valley. And thankfully the major airport stations actually measured snow that day! EUG: 4.5"SLE: 3.0"PDX: 0.4" I think a lot of the south and west metro had 1-3" with the event though so the PDX number I don't think is representative of a lot of places in the metro with that.

Yeah I remember it was supposed to be ZR south of Albany, but was snow from Eugene north instead. Cold air was much more well established than people expected. 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

Brian_in_Leavenworth Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Good article with a short documentary about January 1950, and it even has some color video from 1950. All from Tacoma. https://tacomahistory.live/2019/01/07/unforeseen/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deweydog Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 Two years ago right now the models were being scrutinized VERY closely. And Bryant was in a pissy mood. Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLI snowman Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 Cool little video. Of course, the cold/snow was not actually over by the 20th as the video implies... Yeah, a bit of a mischaracterization of 1949-50. The winter had already been cold and snowy before mid January and continued to be after the 20th.

The winter had already been cold and snowy before mid January and continued to be after the 20th. McMillan Reservoir just east of Tacoma also saw: - a 5" snowstorm in mid December, along with another minor snowfall- a 4" snowstorm around New Years, with a couple smaller snowfalls the following week- a 6" snowstorm the last week of the month and another smaller snowfall But the 16" blizzard that brought a 15/5 day obviously blew the rest of those events away.
