This is really impressive. Another way you can look at this is, it would take either 3 Mt. Hood's or almost 3 Mt. Rainier's to be as tall as those thunderstorms. That's the only reason why the Portland radar could pick them up 😳 that is impressive for the PNW.

Again, this is the screenshot I took from the Portland radar of those storms up near Puget Sound. 

There are showers on the East side of Oregon as you can tell from the radar. They are not producing lightning for now but that can change in a heartbeat. Let's hope we can get some activity this morning 🤗⛈️

Dry and quiet here this morning.    Not sure there will be any convection up here with this system.   

Based on the models... I am really hoping tomorrow is soaking wet.   The next systems on Sunday and Tuesday appear to be headed into Oregon and then its back to ridging.    Tomorrow is the only significant rain shown here on 00Z ECMWF and 06Z GFS runs.

We were thinking about keeping things fresh with a seasonal theme change for the site so I present to you...

The Weather Forums - Spring Edition!

At the start of each season we will change to a new color scheme that gives off the vibes of that season. So we will be sticking with this spring version until the end of June or so. Figure this will keep the website timely and also add a bit of fun to the kind of mundane blue/white/gray color scheme we usually go for. 

Please let me know if any portion of the site looks funky color wise and I will correct it. Also feel free to drop some constructive criticism/comments if you have any. Kind of a new venture so open to feedback. 

Spring?

Pouring here in SoCal. If they were here, Jesse and some others would be outside having a picnic or hiking up Santiago Peak and telling people how great the weather is and too bad it can't be this way year round.

May rain is pretty rare down there.   It will keep it green longer.

Really disappointing model runs. Seems like the GFS is pretty consistent with summer starting for real here in about a week or so. 2018 redux still on the table. Pretty pathetic rain amounts with these “storms.”
