crf450ish Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 15 minutes ago, Phishy Wx said: WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM TUESDAY TO 4 AM PST THURSDAY... * WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations between 6 to 12 inches in the valleys and 12 to 18 inches in the mountains. * WHERE...Airway Heights, Priest River, Moscow, Deer Park, Plummer, Chewelah, Tiger, Worley, Hayden, Springdale-Hunters Road, Fruitland, Davenport, Coeur d'Alene, Eastport, Metaline, Spokane Valley, Newport, Colville, Fairfield, Post Falls, Downtown Spokane, Bonners Ferry, Athol, Kettle Falls, Flowery Trail Road, Schweitzer Mountain Road, Genesee, Northport, Cheney, Orin-Rice Road, Potlatch, Clark Fork, Metaline Falls, Ione, Sandpoint, and Rockford. * WHEN...From 10 PM Tuesday to 4 AM PST Thursday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditions could impact the Wednesday morning and evening commutes. This is actually VERY serious, particularly for Fruitland. I used to live there and the topography almost always produces upslope snow events. Happened every time there was a forecast for heavy snow. This forecast is reminiscent of one that I remember in December of 2016. Went to bed with roughly 4" of snow on the ground that had accumulated from several nights prior, woke up with 2 feet of new snow. It was incredible and intimidating at the same time. HWY 25 did not get plowed for a whole day. Yes, an entire day went by with 2 feet of actual snowfall on a state highway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 Looks like we'll end up with a 29/21 spread today. Sucks balls for those without power. It is tough to scour out low level cold in the WV. I'm sure the next storm tomorrow won't totally suck at all. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North_County Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 After some early-weekend waffling, today's runs have pretty consistently hammered my area with snow. Fully prepared to end up disappointed, but if it does happen, really looking forward to snow that doesn't blow away. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes... your area has a much better chance than the Seattle area. But who knows since this a really tough situation for the models to handle and tiny differences in temps can make a huge difference in what happens. 2 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a complicated deal for sure with that trough coming down the bc coast, if that trough wins the race everything will be shunted south even more. 2 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.

TT-SEA Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 SEA got up to 38 today... quite a bit warmer than the ECMWF showed. Probably doesn't mean anything for tomorrow night or Wednesday though. 1 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who knows since this a really tough situation for the models to handle and tiny differences in temps can make a huge difference in what happens. If the winds stay offshore here I'm thinking it will mostly be snow. There is a station on the east side of Olympics that I watch at 2400ft elevation or around 925mb and if that thing reads 32 or lower we get snow here probably 90% of the time. It is a good indicator because it's right of the edge of the mountains sticking outside of the range. 1 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.

snow_wizard Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 ZR looks inevitable for outflow areas at the very least now. Nice cold tongue for King County tomorrow evening.
