TacomaWaWx Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Short moderating cold, little bit of snow and warm up to 50's Sounds amazing or more like more of the usual. Sooooo much potential - GONE! This event will be better than quite a few winter's I can remember. Having just "more of the usual" cold snap is better than nothing at all. Not every winter is going to be a 1950 or a 1969 or a 2019.

TT-SEA Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 But you showed the EPS showing continuing cold this morning. Yeah... no. Phil is forcing me to say that the cold will be returning... I guess at some point after 15 days and there are hints of it at the end of the EPS run. That is a complete pattern reset after the warm up. I think its safe to call it an absolute lock at this point. **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...

The weather decides the weather not the forecast models. Just enjoy whatever comes your way!
