MossMan Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 I kinda like Lax, nothing like smog and upside down stripped cars decorating the streets below.That’s why I prefer Burbank! A much more fun landing and take off as well with a short runway and steep climb outs! Less in the way of stripped out cars as well!

TT-SEA Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Just got back from Fall City... gorgeous down there. I was expecting more frost and fog since its like 500 feet away from the Snoqualmie River. We brought some Christmas presents to the farm where my daughter rides horses. It felt warmer there than at home because it was dead calm.

Prairiedog Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Snow storm Christmas Eve!I'm sure I see a warm nose creeping up the west flanks that will kill my chances of any snow. That drippy nose kills me 80% of the time. I'm out towards Estacada. Killed me last winter when West of me got hammered with 12+" of snow. I got 3" and it fell when the moisture just about was over. Not the first time that has happened. I guess I should be at least happy "so there is a chance" of snow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow_wizard Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 I'm beginning to think the GFS is rushing things a bit.

Phil Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Pattern changes are often rushed, from my perspective.

Looks more and more like we will have only a respite between being under a ridge. As I've said before alternating between cold troughing and riding in the winter is a really cold outcome at the surface.
