Brian_in_Leavenworth Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 One way to find new records is to go to NWS sites, go to the pull-down "latest text products", and look for "record reports". Then, whatever you find, look for the "older" one, and then again look for the "older" one, and so on. For example, from Seattle NWS: (you can go on and on and on with these, start here: https://www.wrh.noaa.gov/total_forecast/getprod.php?afos=xxxrersew&wfo=sew&font=120&new=1&version=2 RECORD EVENT REPORTNATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SEATTLE WA1234 AM PST TUE FEB 12 2019...RECORD DAILY MAXIMUM SNOWFALL SET AT SEATTLE-TACOMA WA AIRPORT...A RECORD SNOWFALL OF 6.1 INCHES WAS SET AT SEATTLE-TACOMA WA AIRPORTYESTERDAY.

Front Ranger Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 And SEA didn't report snowfall for a period of years in the 90's and 00's.* It's why Dec 1996 is missing from the list of top snowfall months. Overall, the most recent event felt a lot like 1996 to me. A once in a generation event. I think Dec 1996 was around 21", very comparable to Feb 2019. * They considered it "not important," which to me sounds ludicrous. Sure, it doesn't snow very much in this climate, but when it does, it often has a severe impact on air travel.Yeah, Dec 1996 was fairly similar for Seattle for total snowfall. However, that event only lasted a few days and was basically two huge snow dumps. This event lasted over a week and featured 4 separate snowstorms. And a lot more record cold. It also occurred in February. So overall, I think Feb 2019 was easily more impressive from a historical perspective. 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world.

Front Ranger Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 December 1996 was a fair bit snowier for the city though. 17.9" at Sand Point and 22.5" at the downtown site. I know Sand Point recorded more in 1996, but judging from some of the totals by posters here in Seattle, seems like a lot of them got close to what SEA got. Remember, with the last storm much of Seattle didn't switch over from snow until at least a couple hours after SEA did. Sand Point was definitely on the low end for a couple of the storms this month that actually favored areas further south and west in the city. Quote A forum for the end of the world.

Front Ranger Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 Pretty sad the very small number of stations recording snowfall these days. One of the few that is did this month in western WA besides SEA and Seattle WFO is Monroe. They had 26.2" as of yesterday it looks like. Wow, the updated stats show Monroe has now received 37.3" of snow this month. Their snowfall records are spotty, but that's the third snowiest month on record for them, behind only Jan 1950 and Jan 1969. Beat Dec 2008 by 8". Quote A forum for the end of the world.

snow_wizard Posted February 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 The average for SEA through the 19th was 35.6 which would tie the 1956 monthly average if this were the end of the month. I think they have an outside shot at coming in around that for the entire month, but that remains to be seen. Next in line is 1989 with 35.9 and then 1949 with 37.2. Looks like a high chance SEA will come in at number 3 coldest for this one. Another stat of interest is freezing low temperatures. They are currently at 12 and have a decent shot at dropping to freezing before midnight tonight which would put them at 14 tomorrow. The record is 17 from 1949 and 1989. This is especially impressive when you consider a lot of these were with cloudy skies and active weather. 1 Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

Bham_Guy Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Although it's not quite official, it looks like BLI will set the record for the coldest February in its history (since 1949). If my math is correct the monthly average will come in at 32.54. The previous coldest February was 1989 which was 33.83. However, there is a day missing from that month which would have made the average quite a bit colder. What day was it? Of course, Feb. 1st. For some reason the data is missing for that day. Based on the hourly data that is available, that day would have had a high temp around 8° and a low of 4°, making the monthly average 32.84. This is still warmer than 2019, which makes this record even more legit. Also, I believe this was the coldest month overall since Nov. 1985. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx_statman Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 I posted this in the main thread, but reposting here for archiving purposes: Harts Pass Snotel, WA averaged 12.5 degrees last month. Looks like this was the coldest Feb average at any Snotel or RAWS station in WA state history! The RAWS network went online in 1985, and the Snotel network around 1980. The previous coldest Feb. average was 12.8, at "83 Monument" RAWS in February 1989. For official stations, the Feb. average at Tonasket 11NE COOP was 13.3 degrees - coldest for Feb. at any official WA station since 1936! Narrowly beat out the 13.6 degree average at Twisp 10W in February 1956. In February 1936, a number of stations in eastern WA averaged in the single digits.
