BLI snowman Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 This is beginning to look potentially serious now. Major slug of precip moving inland now.

HighlandExperience Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Definitely some nice returns off and near the coast. If Jim is right about it sliding inland and not south, this might turn out nicely for more people than expected.Yea looks way more moist than the last snow we had. Frustrated with this virga.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 40 and still somewhat pleasant. Can almost see the sun through the increasing clouds. The WWA is indeed asinine. Dewpoint here is 33 and with southerly flow there is no way there is any wintry precip around Salem below 500' and maybe even 1000'. Salem is 36 with a dp of 25.

It just can’t make it through yet.This always happens with systems approaching from the West like this. We just usually don't notice it as much when it's rain. I think things will fill in for a brief period later this afternoon, but I'll be surprised if the Central Sound gets more than general 1/2"-1" amounts. 1 Quote Everett Snowfall (510 feet elevation) Snow since February 2019: 91" 2023-24: 6" 2022-23: 17.5" 2021-22: 17.75" 2020-21: 14.5” 2019-20: 10.5" 2018-19: 24.75" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
