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
We’re due a pull back. The truth is you have to walk in the middle, prepare for recession, invest in things needed year round despite recession. It’s an annoying fact of life. Also, get good financial counseling for your time in life and learn.
There are some parks I want to go and see down there by Mt. Lemmon. I remember driving up the winding roads and the temp dropping quickly in the middle of summer. Nice place to visit for sure.
That's fascinating it doesn't freeze. Is it because of the water being so pure and clean? I skied up in Heavenly Tahoe and that lake is formed by an old glacier and it also doesn't freeze completely. If I remember correctly, its due to the water being so pure and clean. You can see 30 feet down! I took a boat tour that had a glass bottom and the visibility of the water was amazing. This is a memory I will never forget.
