Rain coming down and 28 degrees, not freezing on concrete yet but certainly is on surfaces 

Wow, that's some warm air coming in over the top(or you posted this much earlier). Not sure what time you posted this.  I've got 20f and sleet at 7:45

[TT-SEA]

12Z GFS shifted north again... Chris get some snow this afternoon!  

[Snownerd3000]

Don't forget, this guy wants to see your weather pics and vids. 

[Roman-Dallas Snow-Zone]

I'm seeing power outages up to 12,500 state wide now. Mostly in the WV counties 

[BLI snowman]

Snow picking up in intensity here.

Here’s some pics from Milwaukee this morning at my parents’ house. This storm was about 15 inches on top of 5 from earlier in the week. Power has been off and on for the past day. A pretty good one for Wisconsin standards. 
 

14.4 F for a low here this morning, you all know I’m in a very warm microclimate within Seattle so that is impressive to say the least.

My dog said hell no to going outside

She is way down in Eugene right now.

16f and blowing snow in OC. Woke up to a fine powder outside but the snow is mixing slightly with sleet now. 

[Sandy rocks]

Also starting to lightly snow here. The wind woke me up. I have large trees near the house, we cut back the branches but obviously missed some. It's 17 degrees. Had light snow last night that's blowing around now.

Looks like there wasn't much wind either.

My cabin is -28, my friend up there a few miles from me is -36 as well. Just a bit colder than 2021.

It's a pretty big bummer that all the home weather stations bottom out at -40. Even some of the ASOS/AWOS's bottom out at -50. How are we supposed to beat that -70 all-time record?!?

[TT-SEA]

I think we all agree this is the most important thing to be watching today!

Timmy is going to get hammered with snow, as well as the Clark County folks. Those sleet and ZR numbers are pretty astounding Sleet won't cause too much damage at least. But 1-2" ice amounts in Lane County, wow. High impact storm.

I will keep you posted, my work computer faces a big window looking out over the backyard!

And this is the model so it will be further north than this even. The radar is scooting north pretty quick

Too far east.

[ajreich]

I’m not sure if the video will come through but this is outside right now. Crazy, never experienced anything like this here. Currently 13.6 degrees.

The most important weather is always the weather that is happening in your own backyard.

If he does start getting some decent accumulations that far north I’d say it’s a pretty good sign for folks in olympia and Tacoma though. Chris lowkey is one of the best Weather indicators for precipitation moving onshore moving east.

You need a better one for sure, it is strange they stop there.

[FroYoBro]

Pdx at 18 degrees, gusts to 40 with snow falling.

We don't get to experience that very often.

Changing headlights is so annoying.   Why in the hell can't they make it easy since its obviously something that has to be done as part of routine maintenance.    Its like they make it extra challenging on purpose.  

So you shelled out the $5.99 for the trail version of Peacock?  

I’m about ready to sell both vehicles and go back to 1990’s SUV and truck. Headlights were a 5 minute change in those vehicles I had back then. 
 

And I tried to figure out how to get Peacock on my tv but it’s over 10yrs old now and doesn’t have that app, and my Amazon fire stick is telling me I can’t put that app in my shopping cart…I might need to stream it on my phone I don’t know. 
 

What has this world come to!!! 
 

I’m going back to these…I am informing my wife of that when she wakes up!!

Some light sleet in there at times but it's 95% snow. 100% as it intensifies.

I've yet to total more than a dusting since the start of winter at my place. 

[Ellsworb]

Sky clear and temp still 14 degrees.  I can't imagine we see a flake of snow today with the easterlies coming down from chinook pass across Enumclaw and, eventually, the east shore of Lake Tapps.

Not much of any precip up this way until the flurries started 20-30 minutes ago.

I accepted it yesterday…But I’m back to being pissed off today that we missed a massive opportunity for an epic January…By 50-150 miles. What a waste of an amazing airmass! If that polar lobe would have rotated offshore just even 50 miles on Thursday we would have gotten clobbered, now if this current system would have just moved another 150 miles north we would have gotten clobbered again! Ahhhh! Instead of frolicking in snow that would have been falling with temps in the teens I get to look out at a brown dehydrated looking landscape! And to top it off I will be in the garage with my Mr buddy heater changing the headlight bulbs in my wife’s Subaru Outback…Can’t wait for frozen contorted skinned up hands and taking half the car apart to get to them!!! Great design Subaru! 
 

(Snowmizer is probably laughing at this lol)
 

And putting an NFL playoff game on a paywall streaming service is making my blood boil!!! 

Im in a bad mood today!!!

 

That’s all I can do Randy….I feel your pain though  

[The Blob]

Yup snow is falling and my son wants to go play in the snow.

I have a Davis VantagePro2. Unfortunately they all stop there.

So close to a reload the middle of next week.
