March 2020 Weather Discussion for the PNW

[Jesse]

Tears of joy, right?

 

Asking for an uppity friend in North Bend.

 

 

Perfect since he's always speaking for one.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Ensemble improvement and sexi Canadians!

[Anti Marine Layer]

Brrrr. Sprrrrrrrrrringgggg.

 

Sorry, had to get a handle on myself. We should all just move to Redding or something. I heard it's so hot there that the coronavirus just evaporates.

Just reminds me of the seasonal lag which is quite impressive along the California coast. We've had Mays here colder than Decembers and so far every weekend here has been having a trough while we've had the warm weather while I was trapped in the office.

 

I may be a spoiled Californian and a wimp, but it's really weird to be switching to summer time in middle of winter, while in November it's usually sunny with 90 degree offshore flow days and it's pitch black at 5:30.

MASSIVE ENSEMBLE IMPROVEMENT

 

Worth staying up the extra hour for.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

The EURO will be telling.

[HighlandExperience]

Warm Springs.

[TT-SEA]

Goofy old GFS ensembles look really dry.   

[Deweydog]

Dry ice.

[Gradient Keeper]

Who can stay up until Midnight on a Sunday night though... Euro is going to be COLD.

[Deweydog]

Warning shot.

[El_Nina]

Warm Springs.

Massive Reservation.

[Deweydog]

Massive Reservation.

It’s understandable. Hims doesn’t likes it when I’m right.

[Jesse]

Warm Springs.

 

Jinxed seasons.

[Deweydog]

[Requiem]

I can...I'm sick.

[Jesse]

Kinda sad you’re not gonna be able to enjoy this quite as much as you should. And for that, I am truly sorry.

 

Today was negative anomaly loveliness.

[Deweydog]

I can...I'm sick.

You should git some sleep.

[MossMan]

Warning shot.

The real event will be the April 2008 redux!

 

I asked my now wife out for the very first time during that snow!

It snowed a week after I met my wife. It was 65 degrees out when we met.

[Gradient Keeper]

Not warm

Yup

 

 

[Omegaraptor]

Driving through the canyon on Highway 26 is always fun.

[Deweydog]

Happy Belated 25th Anniversary!

Snow is MAGICAL.

[ShawniganLake]

29.7. Brrr.

[Gradient Keeper]

00z ECMWF Day 4

 

Hmmm....

 

[Gradient Keeper]

Day 5

 

[ShawniganLake]

Wow. Lots of snow for Vancouver Island. Winter uncanceled.

That would actually be a historic snowstorm Friday/Saturday here, if it verified.

[TT-SEA]

Was just going to post that about you being buried up there...

 

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Down to 35F.

[snow_wizard]

So...maybe I wasn't so crazy after all!

 

The EPS is fully on board for second round of cold early next week after the impressive cold shot on Friday and this weekend.  With the late week event we are only talking about fine details making a huge difference in snow potential and just how cold it will get.  It certainly appears we will have a run of clear / cold nights with very dry chilly air in place.  A feat that has been extremely rare after March 10 for over 100 years.  Can't wait to see what kind of numbers we put up.

 

Meanwhile it's below freezing here now. 

[MikeInEverett]

06z was the best run yet for snow in the Puget Sound.

[FroYoBro]

Low of 29 so far in the desert of Tigard.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Chilly morning! Good potential for the weekend, but lets be real. Moisture could be pretty limited. Nothing super exciting about a 45/25 day.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Another fact. The setup for this weekend is incredibly precarious. I feel as if we have seen this movie before.

Says you.

 

Apparently its very exciting to some people.

[Jesse]

Low of 29 and frosty out there. Some low clouds have formed now and it is currently up to 31.

[FroYoBro]

Down to 28. Chilly.

You’re going to be this Andrew today huh. Should make things interesting.
