Ken in Wood Village Posted April 30, 2023 Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 The next 60 hours are looking interesting. I wanted to look and see what the thunderstorm potential was for a friend who lives in Post Falls, ID. Looks like he could get hit multiple times and some of those thunderstorms could be severe. I actually love this time of year when we see thunderstorms. Again, if I had the money, I would storm chase 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacomaWx Posted April 30, 2023 Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 Ended up with 76/52 yesterday and a much more seasonable 61/48 today. Despite the significant summer like warm spell to end the month we still finished -1.5F below average this month. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascadia_Wx Posted April 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 Another silly overachiever today. Most guidance had PDX in the low 60s for highs and they have been at least 65-66 so far. Much like yesterday when around 80 was widely forecast but they hit 85. I always like weather patterns where we underachieve compared to guidance, seems they are pretty rare. 2 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT-SEA Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Remember the discussion about the exaggerated snowfall maps all winter distorting perceptions? I really think the ECMWF cold bias is related to the perception that temps are always overachieving in the warm season. Today was not even that sunny but it appears that the ECMWF will end up too cold at SEA and PDX by about 4 degrees. And I think the ECMWF is main source of local forecasts in the short range. So if the ECMWF shows 65 and the official forecast is 65 then its all good. But it showed 61. And the same two will mock this post even though I am right... and they will continue to lament the overachieving temps. Add 5 degrees to the ECMWF output and then determine if actual temps overachieved. 2 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 850mb temps were right at normal today over Portland. Onshore flow is weak with ULL offshore. Normal high is 66 today and actual will probably be 65. Seems like the high ended up right where it should with this pattern. But it is fun to watch the cold misers squirm and complain so I probably shouldn't be too logical about it. 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverFallsAndrew Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 May is a big month for rainfall in Central and Eastern Oregon. The upcoming pattern looks pretty solid for those areas. Going to be some great fishing out that way in the next few years if everything goes right. 2 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

Font has changed tonight. I like it better than that strange one that was in use the past several days. Quote It's called clown range for a reason.

hawkstwelve Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 I'm messing around with some things to try and get them back to a more normal feel/layout after the hack. Will try to test most changes on the non-production side but ya'll might still see some fluctuations for a little bit longer. Also, please shoot me a DM if you find any piece of the site that looks funky theme-wise over the next couple days so I can fix it. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawniganLake Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 2 hours ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: I burn pretty much every day from whenever it dries out enough to get a pile lit, until it dries out and a burn ban gets put in place. I usually only light 1-2 big wet piles a year like the one Randy complains about. Usually I just burn in my fire pit, sometimes I keep it going for days, just throwing a little in at a time. Not sure how Randy would handle the grass field burning in late summer... Here, you’re only allowed to burn yard waste 1 month in the fall and 1 month in the spring. And you can only burn on days with an appropriate venting index. You can bring yard waste to the dump for free anytime though, which has cut back noticeably on the amount of smoke from people’s yards. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a number we call to tell us if burning is allowed that day. Up here in the foothills it's generally open every day during backyard burn season which generally runs March 15-mid-June and then October through December 15th. But because we have over 2 acres we are exempt from some of those limitations too. Often when there is an inversion or light winds, burning will be restricted in the valley, but that's not much of an issue up here. Smoke must settle in Mossman's area. 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!
