Perturbed Member Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 The deformation band looks pretty impressive on radar. Respectable snowfall rate building up here again.

Bryant Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Hi all, First post- been lurking off and on over the last couple weeks J. Really grateful we (live in Newcastle, WA) finally got to experience some real winter weather in February, but looks to me we’re now in for a pretty uneventful stretch (aside from some cold nights). Anyways, glad I found this forum, and just wanted to say thanks for the data, insights, and opinions- even though I think some of you may benefit from some anti-anxiety medication ;-). My short bio (if anyone cares): Born & raised Washingtonian and went to UW for Atmospheric Science, which then led me to work for Google maps for a few years. Then decided to transition fully in to the ‘tech world’, leaving behind almost all connections to my college education. I’ve now been at Amazon for ~7 years and live in Newcastle with my wife and 4 month old daughter. Still have a passion for following and ‘predicting’ weather in my spare time, which led me here. Don’t think I have the time and commitment to be a regular poster, but do plan on stopping in from time to time. -JeffWelcome Jeff! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew. Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 I am guessing he is around 1,000 feet as well. Definition of "impressive" is very different though. 830 feet. I mainly meant it was impressive considering this was an east wind setup. The airport closer to the gorge was 37 while it was 29 with moderate snow at my house. Temp wise you just dont see that spread very often during a setup like this. And then my daytime was considerably capped from the constant flurries today. Coming down pretty good once again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epiceast Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Yeah but it’s the cold 500mb pattern that’s driving the boat.yes, but a relatively benign weak ridge would still produce -15 anomaly if there was a foot of snow over columbia basin at this point, because the area would still fake cold.
