Definitely a good night to take grandma out for a night stroll in Omak.

Definitely a good night to take grandma out for a night stroll in Omak.

Sh*t’s getting real up there!

[Blizzard777]

Not tonight. Maybe a half inch at most.

Maybe we don’t want sloppy CZ 33* snow

We want that nice 26* dry blowing snow from the modified Arctic front!

looks like my mind will not let me sleep until I know the answer 

 

[Blizzard777]

Alderaan is about to get blown up again!

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Bouncing back and forth between 36F-37F over the last hour.  Been dry for a bit now.  At least it's chilly out.  Better than endless torching.

 

Surprised there aren't more people on here TBH.

I just ran a 4 hour IR loop. 4 hours ago the southernmost band of moisture was near Westport, WA. Now it's well south of Astoria. Hmmm....

C'MON!!!!

Whoa....

[Rubus Leucodermis]

Currently 22˚F in my neighborhood. That’s supposed to be the overnight low if the forecast is believed. Safe to say it will bust.

21 now...

[MikeInEverett]

Midweek system trending north on the 06z NAM.

Midweek system trending north on the 06z NAM.

Not many chances for much of anything in PDX now.

[Gradient Keeper]

12:30 AM Omak down to 12, dewpoint -1, North wind gusting to 51mph! Major arctic blast working down into the Columbia Basin.

[Gradient Keeper]

Snowing at Olympia now

[Dave]

Getting kind of late, but I'm in it for a while. About to cook up some special sausage like snacks.

[Meatyorologist]

Just coming in to report 2" of snow in NE Seattle. Peaceful evening.

Same location same report. Very peaceful. Hope that band sits over us for a while

[Gradient Keeper]

Reports of 9" at Suquamish. Dang!

[wxmet]

Have a band sitting over me in West Seattle. Hope it parks all night. Big flakes coming down. 

[Requiem]

Good night all, hope we can score some leftovers.

[Rubus Leucodermis]

Reports of 9" at Suquamish. Dang!

 

Quite the snow gradient in Kitsap County. The Winslow area looks only to have an inch or so, based on highway cams.

[Gradient Keeper]

1 AM Arctic front now through Ephrata nearing Moses Lake.

[Oliver]

Fwiw, heavy rain here in downtown Seattle.

 

Also, wonderful placement of the CZ for the metro area that doesn't normally see it, but I think Jim might actually need to be put in a home if he is so deluded that he didn't think it was deteriorating.

 

I've never registered for this forum because you guys are painful to read, but I hit a breaking point tonight. Jim saying that the CZ wasn't deteriorating was definitely my final straw that made me do it. I mean... come ON dude.

[Gradient Keeper]

1:30 AM Arctic front now through Moses Lake. 00z WRF-GFS showed it wasn't supposed to reach that far south until 3-4 AM. Hmmm.. Keep going!

SDOT cameras show snow downtown.

To be fair, I am almost on the water and just trying to rub it in for the weenies. Happy to provide timestamped pics if you do not believe me.

[Oliver]

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

Yikes

[Brennan]

Bellingham definitely did not get 3” of snow tonight... at least anywhere within city limits. I have a friend in Sudden Valley that got 3” and my parents place got just over 2” on the NW side of Lake Whatcom (near Geneva).

 

Here in Ferndale it’s 19*f with NE wind howling. We got a coating of snow that would probably have measured under 1/2”...

 

north county here might do well Thursday. Looks like a classic overrunning snow to rain event.

[Oliver]

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

Dude I honestly think you should seek help. I've watched you for a couple years and even when we have actual results to compare to the models, you still are completely out to lunch. It's only snow man, it's not a huge deal. If you genuinely believe that things are outperforming tonight and are that worked up about it, I truly, honest to god, genuinely support you seeing a professional.

 

If you want to PM and have me help you link up with some people, I would be happy to! I know you have your heart in the right place. Honestly, if you even want a ride to any appointments, I would gladly drive you! Just let me know.

You can leave... bye. Front door is open don’t hit yourself on the way out, ****.

 

Southern Vancouver Island is getting hit hard right now. Anyone in that zone awake with an update?

This is incredibly rude. I was just trying to help a good person in need. Get out of here with your rude commentary, my goodness. I feel so unwelcome.

You are obviously new here, and your message to Jim on a public forum which he has moderated for over a decade, and has known many of us for over 15 years, was extremely rude and ignorant. To think you’re going to make a difference and help someone “you think needs serious help” by making a public post calling them out is looney and totally insincere. And to say “it’s just snow it’s not a big deal” is also rude and undermines who Jim is at his core. He loved snow more than 99% of people love their I-phone, and that’s saying something. Don’t ever come on here and tell someone that “it’s not a big deal.” People live for this stuff man... go seek to counsel the millions of grown men who play video games all day in their parents basement and live in an artificial world. There are plenty of forums out there for those crazy lunatics who actually need help. Someone who loves and enjoys snow, who clearly is emotionally driven to being probably over optimistic when there is any potential for snow, does not require professional help.

Lay off Jim. Awesome thanks.

Wow, Oliver, you've just discovered something crazy: if you go into a community and start calling its members mentally impaired, you'll be asked to leave.

 

Astonishing, I know.

[Brennan]

A ride to any appointments? Are you kidding me?

You should meet our other new member, LaPineJoshLurker.

I was just trying to help!!! I am a good person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gradient Keeper]

2 AM Sharp pressure rises at Moses Lake, so the arctic front still has a lot of steam as it moves south through the Columbia Basin.

[Oliver]

Lay off Jim. Awesome thanks.

Lose some weight and stop hating gay people, thanks.

[Gradient Keeper]

-31F at Prince George is pretty impressive.

[Gradient Keeper]
