3.5 new about 13" total on ground. It sure looks lovely. Wish it was like this 3 months out of the year every year. Just like whitefish Montana... Lol

 

 

I agree.  I have loved the snow on the ground for the past week.  This morning it was 13 degrees and sunny here with the snow sparkling like a million diamonds.  Nothing like it!

You had an epic event in Feb 2014. We largely missed out on that.

Lol that’s nothing compared to what you are experiencing. Just hoping I can move to a place that has real winters. Being in last place 2 years in a row sucks but it’s just the product of my crappy location.

At least you'll always have December 2013!

 

The fact Eugene reached -10, and had 3 straight lows below zero, during a 7 day stretch of highs below freezing still doesn't even seem real.

 

Dec. 7-9 was the most anomalously cold 3-day stretch anywhere in the lowlands has had in decades.

Reading some of TWL lamenting made me remember an age old weenieism. We always take for granted the events we experience and remember the ones we miss out on.

2.5" of new snow here and currently snowing and 32. Won't be long before we switch over, but its been a fun ride this past week.

 

19.4" of snow this February moves ahead of February 2018 for the snowiest since I've lived here (2012-present). Just 0.6" and it will be the 3rd month I've hit the 20" mark.

NWS in PDX talking about an anafront tomorrow and WSW will be going up to cover the chance.  These are somewhat hard to pinpoint and can dump so much snow, or 35 degree rain.

 

___

 

Much to discuss in this
highly complex and evolving weather pattern; will do so as concisely
as possible here. The day shift on Sunday made some pretty
significant changes to the forecast for Monday through Tuesday,
returning the threat of snow down to the lowest elevations by Tuesday
morning.

 

This morning`s forecast package will continue down that same
path, as a slow moving frontal system combines cold air from Gulf of
Alaska and deep subtropical moisture with excellent dynamics
associated with a potent jet stream aimed toward Oregon from the
Pacific. Will get into the details behind our forecast below, but to
summarize, a new round of Winter Storm Watches are forthcoming for
the Greater Portland and Vancouver Metro Area, the western Columbia
Gorge, the northern and central Oregon Coast Range, Lower Columbia,
and the I-5 corridor in SW Washington.

I do think they meant 500', but I like the trace (absolutely no impact) to 6" forecast :)

 

Tonight

Rain in the evening, then rain and snow after midnight. Precipitation may be heavy at times. Snow level 50 feet after midnight. Snow accumulation of a trace to 6 inches possible. Lows 30 to 35. South wind 5 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent. Rainfall amounts one inch to one and a half inches.

Really didn't snow much past my last measurement of 3.3". Snow is more crisp now. Noticed some low clouds drifting in from the east with a few breaks.

Woke up at 6am, took a peek outside and it was snowing, again!  Picked up another 1.5" since midnight. Temp down to 29 with a wind shift to the North.  Dew points have come down the last 6 hours which could make for another eventful morning.  Quick look at obs show a refresh of colder/dryer air up north.  Precip. looks to be spreading in fast from the SW.  Big question, how far north will warm front go?!?!

Interesting that the Portland could get dumped on later today. Should bode well for areas to the north.

 

3km NAM has 4-5" of snow for North Seattle into Tuesday. A lot more just to the easr of 405.

No idea what will happen in Seattle... but there are many cases where Seattle mixes out way before Portland even when the warm is coming from the south. Although that is usually in a strong east wind situation down there and I am not sure that will be case this time.
