If we're going to remain in this repetitive troughing pattern as long as we can score some good convection, hail, t-storms, nice cloud structure, okay. Otherwise I'm not not a fan of rain and below average temperatures. Think Spring Convective Showers/T-Storms, or Sunshine/Warmer Weather. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing about 2009 is that it was evolving into a modoki niño, which this event won’t be (assuming it happens). If you don’t count 2012, you have to look all the way back to the previous cold phase, I believe. I do have a hunch about something, but I’d rather not say anything right now. Need to test the theory first, lest I jinx it. 3 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly would say that a pretty good one except Puget sound had a significant snow and ice event that Jan. And I’m pretty sure MBY got more snow that march and in multiple events while this past march all of mine was from one event. Solid dusting on everything now though it’s a pretty slushy dusting as everything isn’t turning that white but there’s a layer of slush over it. 1 Quote 2023 - 2024 Cold Season Stats Total Snowfall - 0.75” Max Snow Depth - 0.5” Coldest High Temp - 21 (Jan 13) Coldest Low Temp - 9 (Jan 13) Number of Freezes - 51 Sub-40 highs - 12 Highs 32 or lower - 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
