Is it just me or is this system coming in south of what was modelled?

We need it too. Like 80 miles south so we can keep the freezerbox working in our favour

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Are you near Bremerton National Airport?

about 7 miles west straight shot.

moisture closing in on SEA fast

Is it just me or is this system coming in south of what was modelled?

it looks like it is coming in right where modeled up in Snohomish to whatcom county. The stuff that is coming south looks to just be chunks of moisture breaking off from the main band.

[Randyc321]

Moisture now wrapping around both ends of the Olympics.  Will this be a surprise convergence zone?

 

Never mind,  I looked at it from farther out and see it looks like moisture popping up on a boundary.  Is that correct?  Sorry for the questions. 

 

Lighting up the EPSL now.

[TT-SEA]

Radar shows some moisture over us but it's not doing anything.

 

We have some decent snowbanks here too. The sledding tracks on the left are from my daughter earlier.

 

[Cloud]

In the past, it was always fun following S. Sistek’s real time updates. I miss it.

“Tomorrow’s low is DEFINITELY further south than modeled!!!”

[jcmcgaffey]

That little blog of moisture is heading right towards me but I think it will dry up before it gets to me.

[Weiner Warrior]

“Tomorrow’s low is DEFINITELY further south than modeled!!!”

Plus at least 3 degrees. Going to be all rain!

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Got up to 34 today, down to 27 at the moment. Snowed another 1.5" while I was at work so 3.7" on the day. About 7" for storm total 

[Blizzard777]

That southern precipitation is wrapping around to tight.....gonna slide right by me

[ewnichols25]

Puntzi Mountain Airport west of Williams Lake BC hit -55 this morning and is already down to -34 right now. 7 degrees colder than last night at this time. The station could approach its all-time record low of -63 degrees if trends hold.

[Randyc321]

Its snowing

[The Swamp]

looks like even when things switch over to rain in the next day the swamp will be shadowed

[Cloud]

South wind now at 10mph. 33F

[weather_fan]

Sadly its heating up ..upto 33 in Queen Anne

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Mark Nelsen just mentioned the coldest weather of the season was in November.  I have always theorized Dewey was Mark's alter ego.

That’s the best compliment I’ve got this decade.

[Cloud]

That band of moisture may just kiss Seattle as it begin to rotates N over the Hood Canal. Still the factor of it falling apart as it venture through it.

[wxmet]

Radar starting to fill quite a bit..

[TT-SEA]

Just out cleaning off my satellite dish with my jury-rigged pole and the south wind is just roaring. Seems like its warmed up a little... the snow seems less powdery. Nothing is falling and visibility is good.

Still pure powder here so haven’t had a dish issue yet.
