12Z GFS just buries the Hood Canal area on Friday night and Saturday but keeps the precip mostly to the west of King County... similar to the ICON.

This is going to be a major snow event out here it looks like. 4-12 inches will be the range depending on location out here. Further west the better for the most part. Looks like i'm in the 8-10 zone but could be much more or less also. Tricky pattern to nail down amounts.

All thanks to the low sinking south offshore which results in offshore flow and tons of upslope precip against the Olympics and cold air damming.   On the other end of the spectrum... the offshore flow will likely have a significant drying influence west of the Cascades.

The Euro has a half a foot of snow for the swamp….. not believable

Also problematic is half of that falls before 4 p.m. tomorrow and there is a strong SSW wind from now until late tomorrow afternoon.    Doesn't make sense.

The wind issue is not a problem for you tomorrow morning... you are in the c-zone area with lighter wind while its very windy to your north and south.

March 2012 was pretty huge for K-Falls, the cards would have to line up perfect for another repeat. 

15.2" on my personal notes, with my 2nd best March being around 9" in 2019. It doesn't seem too difficult to have a cool March, but snowfall can really be anywhere year to year.

12Z GEM shows the Hood Canal snow as well... but shows only very light precip around the Seattle area with the offshore flow.

Yeah, If IIRC we went from 38/29 on 3/8 to 76/44 on 3/19 or 3/20. Pretty wild swing. 

Oh yeah, looking more into it we actually hit 80 up here on 3/19. Crazy swing in less than two weeks.
