Really, really lovely cumulonimbus action tonight! I just happened to have my drone in the car and got some solid shots of DT Seattle/Lake Washington/Mercer Island/Bellevue looking north from Skyway. Alas, the focal length of the lens doesn't do the vertical height justice and my WB was off rendering it into semi-gross HDR territory, but still... fun looking weather! It was quite windy- I was flying right at 390 ft and the drone was giving me all sorts of warnings about sustained winds/gusts.
A most incredible snow storm. At times the snowfall rates have been as heavy or slightly heavier than January 2017. Temp 27.5, Dewpoint: 27.1 with gusty east wind and very heavy snow continuing. I'm at 11 1/2" now! UNBELIEVABLE!!!! This pic does no justice at all.
NBM is quite an interesting product! Their weighting algorithm is moderately complex and dynamic, though does has some drawbacks as we saw yesterday. For those who don't know, NBM is an attempt by NOAA to create a super probabilistic forecast model that ingests output from all the models above and outputs forecast guidance for local offices that help them to gauge the relative odds of particular weather outcomes. The 'special sauce' is the post-processing, normalization and weighting that they d

You should be embarrassed and shamed for supporting such a horrible person. No excuse for you Andrew. Morally bankrupt.
The ones in NB look perfectly healthy. Also saw lots of healthy looking palm trees along Lake Sammamish when we were boating a couple weeks ago. I was going to post some pics but decided it's not worth the silly discussion that follows.
They do just fine in our nearly Mediterranean climate. They don't exist in Montana.
When they first started allowing fires to burn I couldn't figure out what was going on. Several years ago they allowed small lightning caused fires to smolder near Liberty, and it eventually turned into a sheit show. I finally came to realize the policy about fire suppression had changed. In the case of Liberty I think they would have attacked the small fires if they had known how out of control it would get.
