December 2019 Weather Discussion for the PNW

[bainbridgekid]

In Leavenworth for the Christmas lights and it's 34 and raining. Really hoping to drop a couple degrees and see if we can pick up a dusting of snow because right now it's just nasty out. Still quite a bit of wet snow on the ground from the big snowstorm on Thursday.

Hammer is about to drop.

[AbbyJr]

He misunderstood my post.  I said a flatter ridge around New Years would lead to a better outcome for us a few days later because it allows a future high pressure cell to piggy back over it which causes an amplified offshore block.  Phil knows I'm not that dumb.

What exactly is a flat ridge compared to a regular ridge?

Ain’t got no a** on it.

It should switch over. I checked out web cams surprised to see so many people there on sunday.

The airstrip near there is 33 degrees at 1200ft so shouldn't be long.

It was an absolute madhouse.

 

Hope you're right.

Looks like this may be a complete fail for the Oregon Cascades. Radar returns seem to be dwindling already and more focused over the valley...

[Jesse]

Looks like PDX is about to surpass 4” for the month.

 

At least we can put years like 1976-77 to bed now.

That 5-10 inches prediction is aging as well as R&R whiskey.

We already had because December 1976 was quite a bit cooler. 

 

Right now the numbers are frighteningly similar to December 2004. Let us hope we end up having the January that 2005 was supposed to have!

The 2004 similarities have been STUNNING since September.

The directional flow totally failed my area. Not a sprinkle last couple days.

[Deweydog]

2004 turned pretty blocky right about meow...

Cats affect the weather.

If you say you could be incorrect or wrong why are you so adamant about it not being able to happen? Just curious.

Because nothing is 100% certain is this business. I’ve been humbled by Mother Nature on more than one occasion.

Do you think this is how seasonal analogs work?

You do realize you act like you are 100% correct in this stuff, right?

They are currently sending new versions of the movie to theaters with improved effects since the release.

[Jesse]

Of course not. You clearly know better as always

That would be Scotch. Not very good, but should be referred to as Scotch

This December will end up way wetter than 2004 for much of WA, at least.

Always wondered where your humility came from.

Scotch is a type of whisky. Without the e.

This doesn’t compute. Either I’m right or wrong..how I act holds no relevance.

Haha. I love you man.

Apparently you do too, via your secret HAARP source.

Lol. More like a insatiable desire for a rematch. When I’m wrong I take eons to run through reanalyses and figure out what the hell happened. I don’t take it lightly.

Nuff said.

[MossMan]

Down to 38 degrees. Sounds like Jan 1950 is back on...Sure looked that way when I popped into Target this morning...bare shelves and things disheveled on many isles! Prepare now!

[FroYoBro]

Biggest GFS run of the winter tonight. 

 

My diaper is on and ready to go.

Three weeks of analysis of a three week Arctic outbreak bust?

Why bother with the diaper? Just let it roll on out on the ground..

Spring color appearing!
