Part II- January 2020 Obs and Discussion

[SnarkyGoblin]

Ya, the low definitely isn't petering. It's growing, if anything.

 

And still plenty of moisture northwest of the Seattle metro.

[Blizzard777]

This is like watching the Hawks game all over.....painful !

[TigerWoodsLibido]

37F with light rain.

I was wondering about that moisture northwest of Seattle. Hoping it can link up with the rest of the CZ

[Blizzard777]

37F with light rain.

You win.....extra painful!

[Blizzard777]

Tried to sleep but I see that arctic air moving south.....pretty sure that’s holding together.  South winds here down to 5 mph so the energy feeding the CZ may be running out. Standing by

We’ve got 6” in Redmond, WA now, and it’s still snowing hard.. Started at about 9 o’clock..

Sweet! 

[luvssnow_spokane]

its reorganizing because of the boundary.  Southward movement should commence--and will probably be enhanced because that front appears to be quite dynamic.

I am not seeing that at all. It is not reorganizing it is just falling apart. Seen this many times before. I hope I am wrong but it is definitely decaying rapidly.

By the time the bag of chips gets past around we will get this

[runninthruda206]

wow it definitely stalled right where the models predicted. amazing 

[Blizzard777]

   

I think we will get something...just having fun

[luvssnow_spokane]

Per NWS Seattle...

 

To bad moisture will be gone for us down south. Looks dry along the boundary in the central, the stuff northwest will no impact the central sound. 

[ShawniganLake]

Jade City -38F ... No idea the wind chill

I was only using environment Canada’s site. I’m sure there’s some cold spots around

[luvssnow_spokane]

Not tonight. Maybe a half inch at most.

[snow_wizard]

I'm getting really excited now.  We have a major plume of moisture building along the north slope of the Olympics and then feeding right into the c-zone.  King County may get nuked.  Already seeing a few flakes here.

[MossMan]

One more.

It will not work out that way... it will hang there and fizzle. Just like models showed.

It looks pretty close to my house now.

[snow_wizard]

The sky really has that look now and snowing lightly with light fluffy flakes.

[Gradient Keeper]

Ahhh, makes sense. Yeah.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Yup. Big oof.

[snow_wizard]

It's obvious the models have underestimated the c-zone.  It's way more robust than was progged at this time.

[snow_wizard]

It sure is nice to have it reasonably dry snow right off the bat!

[Requiem]

Yup. Big oof.

In the same camp, dw

[wxmet]

Not sure about that precip over the Olympic Peninsula and its effects on King County.

 

Originally thought it was part of the Arctic front and might drop down into the CZ to give it some life, but it has remained pretty d*mn stationary for a while with no clear movement SSE.

 

Only time will tell.

 

 

The thing to watch is the action over the Kitsap Peninsula. It's move towards the south and east. 

[luvssnow_spokane]

     are you watching the radar? That is not a robust convergence zone, but a dwindling one. Lol! What am I missing?

Only time will tell.

The models showed it hanging there. It will not be a factor for the central sound.

Look closely and you will see the moisture training into the c-zone.  This could be a big surprise.  It's already snowing here.  Quite a bit earlier than I expected.

[Deweydog]

Conflicting reports!!!

[luvssnow_spokane]

 You are wrong.

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

You are wrong.

The radar I'm watching clearly shows what jim is decribing.

[luvssnow_spokane]

We shall see...     it will pretty much die where it is at. Watch! 

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Best restaurant in the world. Only Dewey will get it.

[luvssnow_spokane]

Goodnight all! No snow for Bonney Lake.... 

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

We shall see...     it will pretty much die where it is at. Watch!

 

Antichrist. Ha

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

I can see Tim shaking his head from here because we are trying to find something good about the radar!

[luvssnow_spokane]

I love Christ and snow. Which we will not see in bonney lake tonight.
