SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 I think we are all devastated by how disappointing this winter turned out. The worm could still turn, but it now seems unlikely. The pattern is just a meandering mess. It’s been our biggest issue the whole season sadly. 1 2 1 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!

I don’t follow that enough to remember but if so…I am good with taking my chances with a weak Nino. Let’s go neutral or weak Nino! Warm neutral and weak ninos are often fairly dynamic winters 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and Jim have private messaged about this, I DON'T want to complain and look like a asss because i have had a bunch of snow but i still rate the winter lame because it wasn't a region wide event year so far. The fact is if you like winter weather you should NOT live west of the cascades at all. 6-10 days of what i consider winter weather just don't make it a good winter at all. If everyone Had snow from Portland to Bellingham for a week then that would of been much better. 6 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.

Yes, it has been a disappointment how the coming event has fizzled into more of a dry arctic fart than a true arctic blast, but December turned out pretty darn good for me, and I had one of my earliest accumulating snowfalls since moving to this region. 1 Quote It's called clown range for a reason.

Bellingham will feel the cold though. It’s not a great setup for delivering low level cold through the canyon. I’d guess Bellingham sees highs in the mid to upper 30s with brisk outflow and sunny skies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy rocks Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 The worst winters are dry and warm winters. It does not help the ecosystem and makes us prone to wildfires. This winter at least has had some typical weather and some nice sunny days. It was cold in November and parts of December but then we had that ice storm and a bad wind storm. I can't give a very high rating so far. Maybe February will be better. We will probably have a cold spring. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherGeek2022 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 if we get no more better than marginal snow events this winter we shall make up for it with thunderstorms in spring hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An A requires a single-digit low or a storm total snowfall of a foot or more, and this winter has fallen just short on both marks. Last winter got an A (single-digit low on two mornings). D- might be generous for this January so far, but only because the weekend freeze hasn’t happened quite yet. 1 Quote It's called clown range for a reason.

Cascadia_Wx Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 43 with some drizzle this morning. Made it down to 40 earlier. Looking forward to the cold mornings early next week at very least. I think most days will have trouble staying under 40 so cold nights will be the big story. We will see how much we can drag the January average down toward the 1991-2020 mean. 1 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last week has been about the worst case scenario for budging the January average at all, given the pattern. They were off to a good start too until we had that little flurrymaker move in last Saturday morning. That really locked in the mid level gloom, especially at night. 1 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayla Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 4 hours ago, Kayla said: Yeah -30F here is still a very cold airmass. Definitely nothing to sneeze at. I’ll have to go back and look but two -30 or greater air masses in one season is quite rare for even here. To follow-up on this. The last time BZN saw -30F temps or greater in December and January was back in 1978-79. If we see another Arctic airmass in February as well, you'd have to go back to 1972-73 to see a repeat. The 70's were D**n cold. 3 Quote Cold Season 2023/24: Total snowfall: 26" Highest daily snowfall: 5" Deepest snow depth: 12" Coldest daily high: -20ºF Coldest daily low: -42ºF Number of subzero days: 5 Personal Weather Station on Wunderground: https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KMTBOZEM152#history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
