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.

The 'special sauce' is the post-processing, normalization and weighting that they d
yea, thing is this unit it only 3 years old. I think something was wrongly installed. I can't figure out who installed it, I called the contractor of the house and they haven't gotten back to me. no sticker or anything on it. no warranty I'm aware of.

Looks like a tree falling onto a power line caused it.
‘Rob Fraser, mayor of the NRRM, said the fire started when high winds blew a tree over and it fell onto a power line, causing it to catch fire.
"And then by the time our firefighters were able to get down there, the wind had whipped this up into a fire that they weren't able to handle with the apparatus that we had," Fraser told CBC News on Friday night.’
