Jesse Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Troll. I love when rain is focused with long dry periods in between. 1911 is as good as it gets. Snoqualmie Falls had just over 5 inches of rain September. Not even close to the wettest September... and it all came in 2 weeks and would have been welcomed by that point. And a white Christmas to top it off! Many great winters and great summers back then.Very enjoyable from an observed spreadsheet perspective.

TT-SEA Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Very enjoyable from an observed spreadsheet perspective. I know what good and bad years look like in the historical climate data records. 1911 was awesome. Summer of 1912 was not so great. Big difference.

You never call that out. Same thing can be done with warm season records. You know a nice period when you see it.

A 55/30 day with 0.00 in precip in the spreadsheet would look like a sunny day with a cool start to me. But I bet most of those days in the past were actually socked in with clouds and drizzle though all day. Its always bad. I can show what you August 1912 looked like if you want to see how a fairly ugly summer month looks like in the historical record.

There is truly bare and dormant... there is actively budding... and then there is leafing out. And the weather this week will definitely stall everything again as I have said numerous times.

Does not look like the wall-to-wall cold it has been showing... of course the EPS could have told you that was probably going to be wrong.

Warm across the entire region by next Wednesday per the 12Z ECMWF... pushing 70 in Portland. Then into the low 70s down there on Thurday... and probably close to 70 here by then if the 12Z run verifies. I am sure the GFS ensembles are still cold from start to finish though... so it will definitely stay cold. And the EPS is always wrong.

Still should get a lot, though.Yeah, in reality I’m expecting something like 5-8”. But that’s mostly due to precip/banding worries. Profiles aloft actually look solid for ratios/dendritic growth. I’m less worried about temps because there’s already a coating of ice on most surfaces, and the snow starts overnight tonight, both of which would help lay down a few inches of “foundation” snow to build on tomorrow.
