Meatyorologist Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 I know I keep updating ever two seconds but this is evolving quickly. The good events tend to do that. Absolutely gnarly sky.

NWbyNW Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 Still hailing. Coming down hard. This might be the longest I have ever seen hail fall and at this size. Over a half and hour now officially. 2023-04-01 13.38.58.mp4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken in Wood Village Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 I thought I would post another radar loop. As you can see, things are getting going. I think the thunderstorms will develop fast and could be right on top of you and not know it until it hits you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloud Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 To me, it’s a bit difficult to differentiate whether the stuff up north is graupel or hail. The texture looks like it should be graupel but perhaps some hail mixed in as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken in Wood Village Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 There is a lot of cold air out in the Pacific. All that popcorn looking clouds. With having a lot of sun breaks, that gives us a lot of instability to make those showers into thunderstorms. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MossMan Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 Most of the action has been a few miles south of me since this morning. Met up with my dog training friends east of Mt. Vernon earlier, had a few moments of hail but otherwise dry. Cold though, currently 39 at home. 5 Quote Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth!

Meatyorologist Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 Turning really dark to the west despite radar remaining relatively blank. I wonder if there's a cumulus tower shooting upwards faster than KATX scans. Would make sense since the best lift is now entering north Seattle, where the environment is quite primed. 1 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even a sprinkle, just some grey clouds and gusty winds as the lifting mechanism (advancing cold air pool) fell apart fast. Actually really funny how things played out given today's holiday. These parcels are sharing no pause spilling their contents all over southern snohomish county though. There have been red echoes there for like an hour now.

TacomaWx Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 Had some moderate rain earlier but we’re just a little too far north with this WSW flow coming in. Flow needs to turn a bit more southerly for us to get nailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacomaWx Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 As cold as this airmass is, april 2022 was a beast in its own league. That was mid month and we pulled off 2 days with trace accumulations of snow.

Yeah this isnt much different than April airmasses we have seen in 2020, 2018, and 2015. Potential to be in the same league as 2012 which was a very cold early April airmass. Early April 2009 seems like a decent analog too.
