Power is flickering and you could hear some branches breaking. That first wind event of the autumn is always the messiest. I had enough deadwood to fill three trashcans last Saturday, and that was only 40-45mph. I don’t know why trees cling to the deadwood in the summer but immediately start dropping it in October. 1 3 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 The stratospheric PV could intensify to near record strength next month. Thankfully dynamic coupling w/ the troposphere is not strong at this time of year, but that begins to change in mid/late November. If this doesn’t get disrupted (at least to some degree) by late Nov/early Dec, the prospects for a cold start to winter in the PNW (or anywhere else for that matter) will diminish substantially, as midlat/W-Hem response to p8/1 LP signature begins to favor +PNA around the winter solstice.

We had some seasonably cool days with the setup you showed, and then the cold air came in from the east with extremely low dewpoints. The cold was more impressive in Oregon, kind of like December 2013.
