[Skagit Weather]

Ehhh...front passage was pretty tame here. Wind gusts to about 30 mph and 0.2" of rain over about 30 minutes.

Tone to get some shut eye

Looked like the gust that knocked out our power was ~50mph.

06z NAM now within range of the Friday event. Seems south of GFS but north of the Euro and others. Starts out as snow in PDX and North WV.

classic looking storm 

[Slushy Inch]

Wind going to continue. Good bit windier than 18z

[RentonHill]

ICON seems better thru 75

[Requiem]

Tentatively ICON is going further south 

[RentonHill]

[RentonHill]

Mucho cold

 

[Requiem]

Whoa! We went way south this run-- don't particularly expect that but it doesn't seem like areas south of PDX are off the hook yet 

[Cloud]

Rug push. 

[Deweydog]

Icon job?

Wow ICON is frigid single digits in Seattle plus those farther south do better. 

[Meatyorologist]

How iconic.

GFS RUNNING

Well it is Tuesday……..

[Dave]

Torrential downpour. Really coming down. A bit of wind. I assume the Cascades blizzard is just about here.

[Cloud]

This past week is the epitome of model riding. ******* wild.

Seems weird how far apart they are even at day 2

[Meatyorologist]

And the GFS is worse. Kinda think the ICON is on its own here.

Some initialization/terrain issue with the ICON.

Seems to forget about really tall hills on occasion.

ICON is on its own but some model suite is going to end up being remarkably wrong come late week

All that detail and it still feels like a flat earther could snipe Al Gore at a convention in Calgary...

[SouthHillFrosty]

A bit less for Seattle. Walking that line  

[Meatyorologist]

Wowwwww!!!

[RentonHill]

Thank you Portland for your sacrifice

 

[Requiem]

Feels like a bit of a south shift, actually. Bodes well for Portland-Seattle

More next few frames. It wants to slam PS. 

[SouthHillFrosty]

That warm tongue is coming up the sound

[Ken in Wood Village]

Well, I lost power. Don't know how strong the winds were to lose power but I'm guessing it was strong. I'm guessing it was when the front came through.

[SouthHillFrosty]

A little shift south yes. Better for CS/SS down to Centralia
