SilverFallsAndrew Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 I thought Mark's cold bias came back in February. I mean for God sake he put a high of 28 at PDX in his 7-day based on one Euro run. And he lives at elevation near the gorge, I think if he hated snow he would have moved by now. It's pretty hilarious someone would think I care whether or not it snows up here tonight., I've had more than my share, time for PDX to score. But full disclosure I do have a $20 bet with Yev that PDX will not see accumulating snow. Not because I don't want them too, just not seeing it. Hope I am wrong for ya'll!

TT-SEA Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 He is appealing to the masses...and the masses do no like snow or any weather that might disrupt their daily lives. I think the masses would be more pissed if he lied to them when he knew a snowstorm was coming... he might make them feel better for a couple hours and then they would think he is an idiot the next day. So I am sure his main goal is to be as accurate as possible.

umadbro Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 I do enjoy watching people get upset over something as stupid as a forecasters body language. I know for a fact there are more pressing issues. Like the mariners missing out on the playoffs for what will be their 18th straight season. With that said, Looks like it'll be mainly too warm for snow tonight. Soundings look like cold rain, maybe some brief ZR.

Guest CulverJosh Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Why don't we all just agree we have received more surprises when it comes to snow than any other weather phenomenon. Well, Tstorms may be right up there as well, but it seems like our biggest snows are always a surprise. I've seen more snow surprises in my 41 years here than I can remember. When things are on the edge, why not wishcast for what you want? We aren't held to the same criticism as people on tv. So let me backtrack a little. I understand where Mark is coming from but I do still agree he has a warm bias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacomaWaWx Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Just wanted to post this here...about 30 inches of snowpack still on Mt.Constitution on orcas island absolutely spectacular!

snow_wizard Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Going to be interesting to see how tomorrow and tomorrow evening play out. Looks to be plenty of moisture in play and the ECMWF continues to shows 925mb temps dropping to -2 during the early evening in the Seattle area. Sure looks like a decent part of the precip will fall as snow for people who have any kind of elevation at all. One of the more interesting things shown on the ECMWF is temps dropping to the mid 30s in the late afternoon. I'm really intrigued by the situation being shown later Thursday night and Friday morning. Certainly cold enough for snow and the models like the idea of decent pecip amounts for the Central Puget Sound. Meanwhile I had a 49 - 24 temperature range today. The 24 ties the coldest I have recorded here in the month of March in nearly 20 years. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

Yeah Mark makes it pretty clear he is rooting for no snow. Does make it more fun when the forecast busts in our favor though.
