Just got to Beaverton and it’s starting to snow. Looks like the band coming up from the South has some juice to it.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

14th snow day for my daughter.

[MossMan]

Morton appears to be the winners this morning.

The east side of that band lifting north moved through here over the last 30 minutes with a little rain/snow mix.   Getting much brighter now.  

[The Blob]

I have snow.

[Doinko]

Starting to snow

[SnowySeeker50]

Low of 32 this morning.

[Meatyorologist]

Not a single mention of the Puget Sound Convergence Zone in the Museum of Modern Art...

But there was an exhibit depicting the many potential profiles of Jesse we haven't seen yet.

[Sandy rocks]

Starting to snow lightly here, looks like more coming. Another snow day for my grandson, it's the 6th or 7th not sure. The school district goes from 600' to Timberline so it's often hard for the district to know how to call it.

[MossMan]

Lovely morning. 

[Blizzard777]

Tigard getting in on the action. My grandson taking it in

[TT-SEA]

Mostly sunny here now.

[Snowdome]

Really weak reach. Culver Josh would have been a way funnier choice.

[Phishy Wx]

got down to 25 last night.  currently 33 dp 23.  said we may get an inch ish  tonight and 2-3" in Friday before turning to rain.

[Cascadia_Wx]

Just started snowing hard here. Still only 33 after a low of 31 so shouldn’t have much trouble sticking for at least the next hour or so.

Had frost and some of the densest fog I’ve ever seen in March earlier. Pretty interesting weather set up.

[Phishy Wx]

just tonights system

 

[Doinko]

Break in the snow the past hour or so but now it's snowing heavily

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Power is out now, I think we officially passed 18-19. Have to do the math. 

[Ken in Wood Village]

I'm out in Beaverton area and it's snowing really good out here

Wow!! What is your accumulation so far on the day? 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Highway was a mess.

Just an inch and a half. Just all adds up. 

[AlTahoe]

Snowing at 1k in the Sierra currently. Total whiteout up here and should get about 8" today. Snow levels go from 1k today to 7.5k tomorrow evening. Forecast is for 6" of rain at lake level by Monday after we have had 270 of snow. Gonna get really messy. 

Above 8k 3-7' of Sierra Cement will fall on top of the 10-15' of dry snow that just fell. Could be some giant avalanches 

[BLI snowman]

Just some light snow up here so far, band is pretty slow. Definitely gonna keep midday temps nice and low though either way.

Wow... 6 inches of rain on top of all that snow is going to be crazy.

Have people in your area heeded the warning to get the snow off their roofs?

Those that can have been out in full force. I tried to do mine yesterday but it was futile. House was built in 1964 so I think it has been through some S&*# and will hopefully be ok. 

[Cascadia_Wx]

Just puking snow here now. Massive flakes. The kind of aggregates that quickly overwhelm all surfaces. Sticking to everything but the roads pretty easily. 32.

Too warm to stick to much here but looks really nice outside

[Omegaraptor]

Some -15 departures for the first week of the month showing up in NE CA. Klamath Falls and Reno both at -13.

Boca, CA has pulled out four -10 or lower lows!

[OysterPrintout]

of the 3 feet of snow the models have shown between the actual snowstorm and now I have to say that this morning's solid 45 min of snow has been the best. All rain now.

I will have to go out and measure... but it seems like you might have snow than me right now.
