SilverFallsAndrew Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 A few low clouds down here in Salem, but just high clouds up at my place. Looks like another nice day.

TT-SEA Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Front did end up slowing down. Quite warm here with a convective looking sky. 64 degrees right now and a fair amount of sunshine. The 12Z ECMWF shows the front energizing as it moves through this evening. Very dynamic looking considering it looks very weak right now. Might be some thunder this evening given the warm conditions now here. And we wake up to sunshine tomorrow. This is some April weather I can get behind.

I'm sure there are plenty of folks who live on the Washington coast that are perfectly happy with their lives and love their location if anything.

Characterizing them all as miserable meth addicts is offensive. Meth use is rampant out there. I never said that everyone was a meth addict... but there are enough to make it a good characterization of the region. You have no problem stereotyping people in other parts of the country. I am sure there are some happy people... but the overall lack of care with their property out there speaks loudly to their general outlook on life. Just a fact. Pointless debate anyways... lets just drop it. Everyone knows the deal with the WA coast. The only reason it came up is because Phil was going to look at homes there.

Timmy Supercell Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I would lose my mind if I lived on the coast. Less cold, less snow, and WAY more clouds. Yuck. I'd like the wind. Seems 60-70mph is more of a frequent occurrence in parts. But just about everything else I might get sick of. It's like how K-Falls gets an excess amount of sunny/clear days and the coast gets an excess amount of clouds and rain. I can't get middle ground in either of these places Right now I'm loving it here, but typically by September and October I tend to enjoy more of the overcast days in the 60's.

I agree, although both the EURO and the Canadian are showing it digging a lot farther west than the GFS this Friday/Saturday. In fact the GFS barely shows anything at all during that period.

TT-SEA Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Who decided that? Me. Jim doesn't want a trough that delivers cold rain and frustratingly warm lows and miserably cold high temps either. He fantasizes about these situations... but they rarely work out the way he wants. It usually ends up much more cloudy and wet (particularly at his location and mine) than he expects. A ridge will do just fine to make Jim happier. Dry weather... cool nights... fair amount of sunshine.

Although, moisture has not been bad since we got here around 5. Either way, nice to get away for a couple days and relax and not worry about anything.

TT-SEA Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 No c-zone or solid low clouds following the front yesterday. That is the best angle for a clean frontal passage. I also see the that the cross-Cascade gradient is a strong +7.3 this morning... so I am not sure why there is no post-frontal activity or even much in the way of clouds.
