Weather report Chris??

 

Must be dumping there... Hoquiam is hanging on to the NE wind under heavy precip now.

 

Looks like just rain now though in the Centralia area on traffic cams.

Amazing out here. Still 30.5 degrees.

Managed to squeeze a hike up Angel’s rest in late this afternoon. The extra hour of daylight is definitely nice for that. The western Gorge has thawed a bit but there was still a solid 6-12” up there

If this doesn't belong in this thread, sorry.   Some pics from a walk at my local beach today.   Near Hawley cove, on Eagle Harbor.

Some of the mesoscale models are really bullish for accumulating snow Salem-north tomorrow morning.

I'm hoping Hoquiam can hang on to the colder winds as long as possible. That will hang up the front further east.

It's funny. So many of us played or are big fans of baseball. Baseball and weather seem to go together in such a strange way. Statistics are definitely a common thread.

It's because we had to pay attention to the forecasts to find out if we were even playing!!

 

When I coached in HS, I remember shuffling my pitching rotation based on forecasts. Also fun when you had a backlog of games that were rescheduled before the playoffs and trying to find fresh arms!

The South Sound is getting blasted.

 

Still just flurrying in Tukwila. Keeps going back and forth between little baby flakes and dime sized flakes. Coming down quickly but not doing much cause they're too small.

Looks even better right in Olympia... they hang onto cold really well.

 

I have seen the warm air get to Seattle and bypass Olympia before.

It was lightly raining about an hour ago in Puyallup for a little bit but heavy snow for the past 30 minutes

 

 

Precip rates doing their thing... good sign for Seattle.

That’s snow, Phil.

 

It’s what often happens to rain when it gets too cold.

Snow? I’m not familiar with such a thing.

Okay, now it's picking up and seeing some juicier flakes mixing in. Might be officially starting for this area.

Too cold where you are for that

Bulldozing the apps & replacing them w/ a freshwater lake should fix that.

I'm just imagining the piles of snow in parking lots, especially places like Costco, that are going to persist through March.

 

 

This is going to take a while to melt off....

Heading to Peoria on March 2! First time to ST as a fan. I love talking baseball. Talking, watching, reading, whatever. 

We went down two years ago and stayed with friends in Prescott.  Made the 90 mile commute thru the cactus forest each day.  Caught a couple M's games.  It was a blast.  You will absolutely love being there in the sun.  We sat in the stands one game and sat out on the grass in the outfield for another game.  Couldn't have had more fun.  You go from generally still cool rainy typical PNW weather to upper 80's and low 90's.  Pretty sweet.

In the Midwest at least. Warm fronts have a hard time making progress over deep snow pack and usually end up further south than forecast in the end. Fwiw

All the time. Not just because snow is cold, but melting also absorbs latent heat..so it keep a lid on temps without good mixing. And WAA will of course favor near surface stable layers anyway especially at night.

 

I’d lean cold at the surface no matter what, even if the warm nose is strong and sleet/ZR is the result.

Hoquiam at 12PM was reporting snow with a temp of 33, dp of 32, and a NE15 wind.

 

Most mesoscale models (NAM, HRRR, RGEM, WRF) had them at rain by now. Might be a good sign.

 

 

HRRR actually not doing too badly... still shows Hoquiam mostly frozen precip at noon.

      First of all, that article was about more than just the lunch issue - they're trying to pass laws to reduce workers' compensation when injured on the job and reducing unemployment. Second, how does telling people who work they don't need a lunch break being on the side of the worker, as you like to claim to be? The people who wanted the LA law changed were the rich fat cats you sh*t on in previous (and I'm sure future) posts. See what you say about Tim. See what you said about my aunt. You couldn't be more of a fraud if you tried.

      I'm not the one who constantly uses that phrase as if you're the spokesperson of every person who works. Aka a fraud, just like that senate candidate.

      Who cares. He grew up around rural folks and hasn’t forgotten where he came from. I understand you can’t relate to that. To you and other democrats “working people” is code for criminals, welfare recipients, and illegal immigrants. To the rest of us it means people who actually move this nation forward.

      April 2024 Weather in the PNW

      Cloud seeding is a form of public relations to say “at least we’re trying” to end droughts. Throwing some silver iodide in a cloud isn’t going to do anything to a storm that is large enough to produce appreciable precipitation. It might cause a few sprinkles from a cumulus cloud that otherwise wouldn’t have rained. There are also legal ramifications since it had been argued that cloud seeding is a form of theft — you are stealing the water from areas downstream of where you seeded. The ironic thing is that project Stormfury got axed in the late 60s after they seeded a hurricane and it happened to make a left turn to the Eastern seaboard shortly thereafter. It would be funny if this makes them think twice about seeding in the UAE, although it’s a bummer that they didn’t seed this storm (or at least they claim to have not seeded it LOL).
