Looks like more rain moving into the north and central valley.

[jakeinthevalley]

Just food for thought. Carry on my wayward son. There'll be peace when you are done.

Snow in Kansas?

[Phil]

Not bad!

 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Not bad!

 

 

That was a really wicked storm. Very impressive for November.

Looks like Phil has had too much LSD today.

I could do that with scores of your posts.

 

At least we are talking about actual data regarding the actual weather in our area.

. I’m sure if there really was an issue with the sensor then the professionals would have taken care of it or there is a reason for it. I still thinks it’s odd that all the nearby sensors on Wundermap continuously read more rain. Even yesterday when that area got more rain than areas to the north the nearby sensors still had more than SEA.

 

Eh, nothing stands out to me comparing SEA's measurements to the other official stations.

[TT-SEA]

That is one deep trough on the 18Z run later next week...

 

 

 

Pretty rare for a trough to dig all the way down to Cabo.   

[SilverFallsAndrew]

18z is pretty boring.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

18z is pretty boring.

 

Yeah, dry too.  If this weekend ends up being dull then it's going to be a while before we see anything interesting.

[Esquimalt]

'Tis the climate round here.  I can't wait to get out.

Yeah I can just tell this run will be the one that verifies for the next 17 days. There will definitely be no changes between now and then. I can’t wait to get out of here.

12Z EPS shows a wet pattern starting up again around day 9 or 10.    Its been consistent and its moving up each run.

Heading to Phil’s house?

For the last month or so, multiple times a day - I've had several deer make rounds in our property eating whatever they can find. They know the seasons are changing.

You know the rule though right? As soon as you move, wherever you move to heads into its worst 5 year winter stretch and the climate back home changes to good haha.

My brother used to live like two blocks from you. I went and visited him once and there were TONS of deer in your neighborhood.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Live look from the weather window.

 

[Phil]

Live look from the weather window.

 

Quite a few leaves left there.

[TT-SEA]

I was just going to say the same thing.

There's other folks that live in this town that treat deer sightings like a delicacy. Stop their vehicles and pull out their phones.

 

It's like this hill is their home practically. I'm like "hi how's your day" then I close my curtains.

These cottonwoods are always about the last to lose their leaves and the first to get them in the spring. We've had very little wind this year, so that's helped them hang on. I remember during the cold snap in November 2014 they had not even turned yet. But its not just down here, the big cottonwood near my house is pretty much the only tree for miles that still has leaves. 

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Yup, tons of leaves still here. Hasn't been active enough. Hopefully we will be just south enough to get in on some of the bands for these coming systems.

Our cottonwoods hung on until Thanksgiving which was later than usual here... but they are completely bare now after the wind on Thursday night and Friday morning.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Still no high temps below 48.  Hopefully this next stretch into the weekend can get us some highs in the low 40s.

They know what's coming............

What if there was a December 2008 coming along with a January 1950...and the animals know it but we have no idea yet. At least the drought bickering would finally come to an end.

Snow does not end drought.   

[GHweatherChris]

Snow does not end drought.

That is not what he meant.

[High Desert Mat!]

Snow does not end drought.

Those two months mentioned above would pretty much kill the drought down here.

[TT-SEA]

That is not what he meant.

 

 

I am aware.

[Requiem]

I think the storm forecast for CA is stronger (in terms of barometric pressure) than any of the storms that have hit our area this fall. That’s a bit interesting, I don’t think we’ve had a storm at below 990 mb in a while.

 

By a while, I mean since January.

[stuffradio]

Got another .91" of rain since my last report of precip yesterday. I'm getting pretty close to 16" of rain this month now!

1950 was the biggest January here I think (56.50"), but 2008 didn't look like a very big Dec in southern OR. A December like 2015 (33") would definitely be a drought quencher.

Drought talk will never end on this forum. It's ingrained into the DNA to talk about it, even when it isn't happening.
