February 2019 Weather in the Pacific Northwest - Part 1

[Requiem]

BUT... its coming back on Tuesday morning! 

 

 

 

LOL

[Jesse]

Consistency.

Not sure if you are being sarcastic, but from what I can tell the Euro has been steady eddie. At least compared to the others.

[epiceast]

Heh -

8k unique users today 40/30/20 from SEA/PDX/YVR respectively

all time member counts right now at 346

30+ new accounts in two days

280+ people on line within the past 15 minutes

 

Thats pretty cool.

D**n Vancouver overperforming!!! any breakdowns of the other 10?

[Requiem]

For us Puget Sounders

 

Oh come on, you get BURIED on Friday and Saturday. 

[Perturbed Member]

I'm not sure I understand what is going on with this Monday system but I like the results a lot?

[Guest hawkstwelve]

Totals through 10PM Monday. Nearly regionwide 5-9 inches except for our buddies in the North, unfortunately.

All Pendleton radar technicians.

[wxmet]

Probably need to wait till Saturday when the first storm system is passing through to get a better idea for the potential system on Monday. 

[Timmy]

Pdx gets 5” in 6 hours Tuesday night. You’ve got to be kidding

[ShawniganLake]

Gonna be big for Portland on Tuesday.

[Deweydog]

All Pendleton radar technicians.

Lord help us if the Pendleton radar goes down this weekend.

[Jesse]

This isn’t a Puget Sound forum.

Oh c’mon. Don’t hold that against me.

Clark County FTW

[umadbro]

Whoa

[TT-SEA]

Tuesday morning...

 

 

Tuesday afternoon...

 

[Timmy]

Widespread 15-18” for the pdx metro through day 6...

[Guest hawkstwelve]

4PM Monday - 4PM Tuesday.

 

[Cloud]

For now no comment for Monday/Tuesday since there is no consistency. Just have to monitor the next few runs to see trends.

 

The weekend system however should be very confident

[epiceast]

All Pendleton radar technicians.

Hey, they are hard at work keeping the radar working to track that Yakima valley snow.

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

1 run ia big down south and the next good further north. Been doing that for days.

[Deweydog]

Definitely been one silly run of some kind after another. Throw climo out the window when the Euro turns into the FV3 at 324 hours for days on end...

[TT-SEA]

Tuesday evening...

 

[Guest hawkstwelve]

Euro pretty much swapped totals from Seattle to Portland through early next week.

 

Bottom line is there remains huge potential for a large snowstorm somewhere between the two. Details and placement will work out in the coming days.

[Deweydog]

Less snowy runs ahead.

[TT-SEA]

Wednesday morning...

 

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Here comes big john up the hill at hr 168.

Too much cold air on this run.  

[Guest hawkstwelve]

Too much cold air on this run.  

 

That's a nice problem to have.

[Timmy]

Face value looks like pdx would score a few below freezing highs

Just pretend this in an August icebox 6 months removed. Embrace and enjoy.

[Guest hawkstwelve]

I'm still not sure on the difference between the two or which algorithm has better verification but here is Kuchera totals through 4PM Tuesday.

 

More than the 10:1, FWIW.

 

[VancouverIslandSouth]

The WRF seems to be hinting at some sort of southern event early next week as well, with almost nothing in northern areas.

 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

[epiceast]

I really hope interior west gets a good overrunning/air mass collision storm at the end of this. Gonna be really bummed if we just keep adding 1" (Kuchera) a day for the next week to amount to a big sublimating nothing. It's been pretty ******* cold here.

[TT-SEA]

Wednesday morning...

 

 

Wednesday afternoon...

 

[Weiner Warrior]

Bad run. Throw it out.

[Brian_in_Leavenworth]

I think an important note in this evenings AFD for Seattle is that the QPF might be higher, increasing the snow totals for you on the west side. All those maps assume 10:1, maybe it will be a bit higher.

Yeah, I noticed this on the 12z EURO run this morning. That the Kuchera had higher snowfall amounts compared to the standard 10:1 ratio. It's suppose to be more accurate so it's a good sign.

[wx_statman]

1 degree in Yakima, -28 in Havre, MT on last hourly.
