Perturbed Member Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Looks like the 00z ECMWF brings the low onshore a bit south of Lincoln City and tracks it NE? Still looks a hair south of the 12z but more precip? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bainbridgekid Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 For who? For what?It's still to soon to know, but I feel pretty good about Seattle's chances. 3 days is a long time for things to keep creeping North. Doesn't mean it will necessarily happen again, but I'd always rather be rooting for a North trend than hoping for a low to stay South. Not really, that low took a b-line for the Olympic Peninsula then it just stalled out. This doesn't have the look of a system stalling out, looks more like Feb 5, 2017. This area got nailed with the Feb 11, 2019 event, but will end up with nothing from this one. This low actually comes ashore and tracks well inland, pretty big difference.Reminds me a lot of that one as well.

Frontal Snowsquall Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 But this event will apparently end up just like 2/11/19 (no snow for PDX). Cause it’s identical? Honestly the models were decent tonight.There's still lots of uncertainty in the track. Right now it's best to take a blend of all the models. I'm liking where PDX is sitting at the moment. We will see some snow. The question just remains to be seen how much and if we transition over to ice. Hopefully we get a clearer picture tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not trying to be a d*ck and am not nearly as confident as Tim is, but it does have that feel. I'd feel better if I lived in the South Sound than up here in Everett though.

snow_wizard Posted February 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 If This happens again this month will be a once in 150 year deal. I dont buy it yet. If this run verifies I will be popping a champagne cork! An absolute masterpiece this month. Even with the one screwing I got still an amazing outcome. Still only cautiously optimistic though. BTW the much colder temps being shown on the ECMWF run would guarantee SEA to end up third coldest at worst for the month of February. That in combo with snowiest Feb for Seattle since 1916 and largest number of freezing low temps for Seattle in February since 1936. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

I have not been wrong yet in predicting school closures this month. It is very likely that they will end up not going to school even once from February 9th through the 26th... and school will have been closed due to snow on 9 out of the last 12 school days by Tuesday.
