TT-SEA Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 We have low clouds here. It was almost like what you would see in the summer except it was frosty when the clouds first arrived. Live view here... this is what a weak marine push looks like on a summer morning. Status pushes up to the top of the ridge and you can see it descending down and disappearing.

Would make sense since it’s been leading the way lately. Let create a separate thread here and post the EPS and GFS ensemble maps and track it and actually score it in two weeks. Lets really quantify it instead of just trolling with anecdotal observations. I can go back and show how the EPS picked up on the cold trough coming for the 3/21-24 period since it first came into view. And showed the warmth last weekend all along... while the GFS and it ensembles were showing cold and lowland snow on many runs for that time frame. I should have been doing this for the last month actually.

OT, but feels like it’s been winter forever here. Minus a warm stretch in Feb, it’s just been endless cold. We’re still dropping into the low/mid 20s every morning, and it’s been snowing on/off pretty consistently (including today). Also have never seen the trees this late before. No real buds anywhere, no flowers, grass is still dead. Even the daffodils have stalled out.

There isn’t a hint of anything “green” minus the stalled daffodils poking out in flowerbeds. FWIW, we usually run ~ 2 weeks behind downtown with trees/flowers. Our daytime highs are similar to DC but we’re much colder at night. Often by 10-15 degrees. Apparently it matters. In the summer, it makes a huge difference since the early morning hours (between 5-7AM) can be somewhat tolerable here, while DC never seems to cool down at night under any circumstance. By 8-9AM, though, everyone joins the swamp party.

TT-SEA Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Phil... this is perfectly normal here for mid March. Everything is right on track for our climate. The University of Washington update this week said the cherry blossoms there (different variety and older trees) will peak this coming week which is exactly normal. The cherry blossoms were out a month earlier in 2015 and 2016. And the grass is always lush green here in March... always.

Phil Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Phil... this is perfectly normal here for mid March. Everything is right on track for our climate. The University of Washington update this week said the cherry blossoms there (different variety and older trees) will peak this coming week which is exactly normal. The cherry blossoms were out a month earlier in 2015 and 2016. And the grass is always lush green here in March... always.What cherry blossom species/cultivars do you guys have planted up there, then? Certainly can’t be naturalized Sour Cherry like here, because ours don’t bloom until late in March. The Sun is much stronger here, our cloud cover is much less than yours, and we *usually* see several days reach the mid/upper 70s by mid-March. That usually doesn’t happen in the PNW, as far as I know.

Not sure about the type of cherry trees. But we discussed this last March when the UW cherry trees were in full bloom. It happens every single year.

TT-SEA Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 And many varieties of trees are budding and blooming now. Just look at the climate zone maps for the US... we are about the same as Georgia. Not debatable.
