Also I’m pretty sure Lahaina averages like 9in of rain a year so they don’t get a lot of rain. The Terrain on the south and west side of the island pretty much reminds me of eastern WA. 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatyorologist Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 It was really nice driving through the Umatilla forest Monday with the rain coming down. Eastern Oregon needs the rain and it was quite a relaxing sight watching steady stratoform (and cumuloform!) rain fall on such a parched landscape. 2 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacca Defense Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 .03" out of the storm this morning, thankfully I was able to get diversion trenches dug before the flooding got too bad on my property. My neighbor is in the middle of getting their roof replaced, and thankfully the crew got the tarps up in time. We both really dodged a bullet there. Currently 71 with occasional sun breaks. 1 1 Quote Britton Rd Bellingham Weather Station: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KWABELLI103?cm_ven=localwx_pwsdash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWbyNW Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Heat wave coming to the PNW next week. A reminder to all, come to Everett's waterfront to cool off. Check out the ongoing summer events and lots of great restaurants! Take the free ferry with family to Hat Island (5 min boat ride) and have a picnic, play on the beach, etc! Temps here will be low 80s (likely just high 70s) compared to everyone else's high 80s and 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWbyNW Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Some good news on the smoke forecasting. The biggest producer of smoke in the PNW (outside of BC) is fires in central Oregon. It is all blowing east. That of course will likely change when we have the heat wave next week, and any change having winds blow west or north could be bad for the region. But for now, clean air for mostly everyone in Washington and Oregon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fall and winter are goated, and fall is my favorite season. Chillier darker days with rain pouring outside while drinking evening coffee to football on the TV.
