Perturbed Member Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Watching this deformation band action on radar must be really stressful for Portland snow lovers west of I-205. Yeah it is pretty frustrating, me being on the far western edge of the metro is about the worst place. On to the next event, hopefully it doesn't screw us this hard.

Perturbed Member Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 It is absolutely not the worst place. For this event it was pretty much near the worst. I was right in the dry slot all of yesterday and now just west of the dband. I did decently with temps, but that isn't too useful with .01 in of precip. In general though this spot is decent, this event was just awful luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seattleweatherguy Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 National Weather Service Seattle WA 230 PM PST Mon Feb 4 2019 .SYNOPSIS...Cold air will continue to spill out of British Columbia tonight. Lingering snow showers will come to end this evening with dry and cold weather Tuesday and Wednesday as weak high pressure builds into the region. Another round of unsettled weather is expected later Thursday into the weekend as another system drops southward into the region. && .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...An upper level trough continues to drift southward to the Oregon/California border this afternoon. Wrap around moisture lingers over the eastern portion of the forecast area this afternoon, but flurries are expected to come to an end this evening with skies gradually clearing from the north. With snow cover and clearing skies, it will be a cold night ahead with widespread lows of 15 to 25 degrees...coldest in the north and outlying areas with substantial snow on the ground. The Bellingham-Williams Lake gradient is edging downward so we will see the Fraser outflow winds across the North Interior weaken with time. It will remain gusty overnight and a wind advisory will be in place for Western Whatcom county and the San Juans. For the remainder of the area, it`ll be a brisk, breezy night with wind chills in the single digits to low teens common. Weak high pressure aloft west of 140W will shift eastward into the Washington offshore waters by Wednesday. This combined with dry northerly flow aloft will bring a couple of mostly sunny days Tuesday and Wednesday with slowly moderating temperatures. Highs in the mid 30s will be common on Tuesday with upper 30s to near 40 on Wednesday. Recent model runs have slowed the timing with the arrival of the next system somewhat. An increase in cloud cover is expected on Thursday with high temperatures remaining below normal in the lower to mid 40s. Models are in reasonable agreement with another system making the trek southward over British Columbia Thursday night...but begin to diverge in the details thereafter. 27 .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...There is still some disagreement in the details with regards to the evolution of the late week system amongst the models. However, both the Euro and GFS have another upper level low pinching off in the vicinity of Vancouver Island late Friday or Saturday then shifting offshore followed by another Fraser outflow event. It looks similar in some respects to the system of the past 24 hours, but there`s plenty of time for the models to fall into place. The hounds of winter still have Western Washington in their sights. 27 && .AVIATION...A low pressure system is drifting south and there is cold high pressure over British Columbia, Fraser outflow will gradually ease through the middle of the week. There will be some flurries near the Cascades into the evening, but otherwise skies will be clearing from the north. Mostly sunny but cold on Tuesday. KSEA...Skies will be clearing from the north this evening. North wind easing. && .MARINE...Fraser outflow will ease through the middle of the week, but we might see another round of that late in the week. For now, gales easing in the north with breezy winds elsewhere. A freezing spray advisory is in effect for the northern inland waters from the San Juan Islands northward--it will cool down some more, so we may yet see that develop, but the ferries were not reporting any icing as of early this afternoon. && .HYDROLOGY...River flooding not expected in the next 7 days. && .SEW WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WA...Wind Advisory until 4 AM PST Tuesday for San Juan County-Western Whatcom County. PZ...Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM PST Tuesday for Central U.S. Waters Strait Of Juan De Fuca-Coastal Waters From Cape Flattery To James Island 10 To 60 Nm-Coastal Waters From Cape Flattery To James Island Out 10 Nm-Coastal Waters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
