Even that low coming in 50 miles south of where is is shown now would have major changes to forecast. Crazy when you think about it. I am normally more optimistic but this one seems like it’s going to be a north of Everett snow event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her neighbors are so nice and they will eventually get it done but she wants to do it quickly so she doesn't bother them.

Lows just don't track south of us to often without any forcing. Atleast the ice would give us some more wintery precip besides the trace of snow we got Thursday. Pretty solid blast though. This did deliver a 27/17 day and a 24/14 day…ice on the beaches and a little snow. Not to mention a low of 13 this morning. I’d take this over the 1” of slush and the 36/28 day we had in January 2020. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 8 years working at the senior community which included big events as 11/06, 1/07, 12/08, 11/10, 2/11 (or 2/10 I can never get that Feb event year correct) and 1/12…And GOOD LORD these seniors do not change their routines one bit no matter what, and everything has to be done RIGHT NOW even though they have nowhere to be. The resident of this car asked us to dig it out (12/08) so they could go shopping at QFC since they go to QFC that day of the week every week. Even though we have a small grocery store on site along with a restaurant. 5 Quote Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border.

T-Town Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 Speaking of heating efficiency or lack thereof, we have a radiant heat system that has to be original with the house (1948). It’s embedded in the concrete floor of the main level of the home. The basement ceiling is exposed concrete and the main floor is covered with hardwood over a layer of plywood. It’s 80 degrees in the basement with the thermostat set to 70 on the main floor. Efficient! We got some bids on ductless systems a couple years ago but the house is large and kind of chopped up so it was crazy expensive. By the way, the thermometer in the photo I bought with my paper route money when I was like 12. Still going strong 50 years later. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman-Dallas Snow-Zone Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 I had a bad nightmare last night while asleep. While all of us had been enjoying our arctic cold and snow we were struck with the massive 9.0 cascadia earthquake. The sheer terror I felt and destruction of the quake and tsunami in this cold was pure hell. I woke up before too long and sighed a breath of relief that it was just a dream... I hope that quake never hits but I know it’s pretty much inevitable at some point. 3 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have noted, the last five years or so have been quite prolific for memorable winter weather events. This one keeps it going. Agree! My own yard testifies this has been a special event. Historic ice build up on Whiskey Barrel Falls and it continues to grow! Been fun to be in the ice box but of course would have preferred some snow as well.
