Ginkgo. They are still putting on a good show up here, too.

Frosty out there this morning. Been as low as 32.2˚F.

Mark posted this last night. He barely looks 16 in this picture but I think he was in his early 20’s. Wish I looked that young at that age...lol

30 and foggy this morning up here

[Port Angeles Foothiller]

28.4

[Ellsworb]

Strong frost on the east shore of lake tapps this am.  I wasn't expecting to wake up to that.

[Skagit Weather]

Breeze for most of the night let temperatures only fall to 37F. No frost, but maybe I'll do a little better in subsequent days.

[MossMan]

32. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

34 light frost 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

36 at Salem, 35 at Corvallis. Coolest spots in NW Oregon. Out east it’s 21 in Rome.

[Phishy Wx]

31 and freezing fog and frost

 

Now eyeing the 2nd half of January as a potential good period

yes, that January

Models should start looking good in about 2 months.   

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Looks like we got down to 44F. Nice cloudy night. Doesn’t appear to be much air movement.

[iFred]

Exposed sensor that is ~15' above ground bottomed out at 27º just a few minutes ago. Ground level hit 30º in Everett.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

CFS indicating a massive arctic BLAST in mid-December.

[Tyler Mode]

Sunrise kind of busted, a few clouds, but too many east side blocking good color.

Looks mostly sunny today, despite the forecast on the radio, fog, clouds and showers?!

Can’t wait for the next winter cancel event.

It's going to be sadder than a Saturday afternoon at Reser Stadium for Husky fans.

@Phil @Deweydog

regarding low back and sciatica. The start of Covid I had herniated a disc in my low back, horrible site pain as well as shooting pain down my leg.  The best things I learned in the process. PT was most helpful, it was slow going but they used KT tape to improve my posture to take pressure off my low back which gave me enough to begin some strengthening excerises.  (Took about 18 months to get to that point, a couple steroid injections too, I rented a low back traction device as well, that helped a ton!). Once I was not in terrible pain rehab began and it’s all about strengthening your transverse abdominus, find hip adduction machine at a local gym, it’s a game changer high reps (15-20) low weight. Glute bridges and clam shells can be done at home. Good luck!

[Cascadia_Wx]

A few morning showers yesterday then partly to mostly sunny most of the afternoon and relatively mild. Hit a high of 56. At least with some evening clearing I managed a 39 by midnight.

Clear with some light frost around this morning, and a low of 34. Should be a beautiful day.

Pretty sad to see a Ducks fan reduced to rooting for the Beavs.

January should be GREAT!

… assuming you like ridging.

[MossMan]

Perhaps we should all move north for the winter.

Big Beavers fan. Always great to see our in state brethren do well. Oregon State just isn't a rival, more a friend. Our real rival is from Seattle and is going to the Big 10 with us. Going to be a really tough transition for UW, their poor recruiting is going to likely lead to a pretty rapid decline over the next few years.

Andrew is bored this morning and showing off his Oregon inferiority complex.   

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Sorry for being off topic, but 2008 was my favorite UW season. 

We all should hope UW loses this week so we can finally ditch that 1991 analog.

Can't wait for Ohio State to curb stomp UW and Oregon every year in the big ten. Doubt they'll ever be better than 8-4.

Fun fact, Stanford has more PAC12 championships since 99 then UW. UW is not a football school.

You are downright obsessed with this right now.

Going to be a Tim-tastic winter. First daffodil posts ~ 8 weeks away.

You seem really upset about their 17 game win streak.   Its just sports Andrew.   It will be OK.   Neither the Ducks or the Huskies are winning the national championship this year.   The rest of the country doesn't even care about PNW football.   

TOSU is winning it all. Can't let the cheaters from that team up north win it.

But I like snow.   

I just prefer that spring get started in February rather than winter just getting started then as we have seen in recent years.  

[RentonHill]

Still some barky boys in there. Ruff ruff. Good to know we are all dawg fans when it comes to the sembles….

[the_convergence_zone]

Are we already coming up on the 10 year anniversary of the last time Oregon made the playoff?? Wow, time flies.

Well good news for you, Jan-Mar is when niño climo is warmest/driest in the PNW region (especially in stronger events like this). Basically opposite of recent years.

Hard to say how resilient the niño base state will be beyond the equinox at this range (could be affected by SSW/dynamic final warming, etc) but the warm theme could extend much deeper into 2024 if +ENSO tropical forcing/circulation persists.

I’ve seen daffodils poking up as early as late December.  So could be less than 8 weeks away.

Or they can win and make Oregon's win over UW in the Pac12 title game end their hopes, thus making Oregon's win vs them look better and putting the Ducks in the playoff.

Feels great to have our moist air back and be rid of that nasty inversion.
