Yeah that's true but they are the same basic aircraft. The 737 Max, whether it be the 8 or the 9 now carry quite a stigma. Temp up to 26 now and headed to somewhere in the 30's.

Deweydog Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 4 minutes ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: Thanks! Yeah, I feel like for low level cold this one beats out all of those except 68', though 2004 was pretty close at its peak. I feel like this one cleaned up what that one left on the table. Maybe I'm missing something, but for what temps in the lower Columbia Basin verified at, I feel like we did about as well as we could have dreamed of with this (In terms of temps.). Maybe one of these days we can couple a low level blast with a full upper level blast and see what happens. Yeah, this one’s duration will stand out almost as much as its bottom end. Not too many examples of being able to pull off a warm overrunning system then transition to a dry inversion so effectively while keeping the spigot almost completely uninterrupted. 12/08 was kind of similar, but was more of a hybrid with the cold upper levels, albeit maritime in nature, on the back end. 2 Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad.

It's been so still that even the tree branches are still caked in it. Without a doubt the longest I have seen snow on the ground in the lowlands without any significant melting.

Seriously, I really love lurking in this forum- with all of the debating back and forth everyone does I've learned a ton, and I really appreciate how well ideas are explained (or picked to shreds lol). Alas, you can add me to the broken pipe brigade. Fire alarm has gone off 4 times in the last hour as we climb above freezing in my condo building. One of our sprinklers has busted. Right now hoping that it's just one of the exterior pipes going from the control room, but we will only know for sure as we thaw out and when we get a plumber in. lol @Blizzard777 if your fix holds, you want to make some extra money by coming north and soldering ours? Goodness knows when we will be able to get someone out to look at it... Already 32.9 in Skyway, le sigh. Ugh!!! I have a heater out there along my line right now as my emergency shut off valve is frozen currently, downstream from my fix (which I had put in last time where my pipe bursted 17 years ago) . I’ll go without water for a bit and make sure everything is thawed before I turn back on. Otherwise I’ve moved onto getting the water damaged stuff out of garage. Good times. Hope yours didn’t do any major damage and hang in there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLI snowman Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 1 hour ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: I'm looking at @Deweydog and @BLI snowman for this one. What would a couple historical comps be for this stretch? This reminds me quite a bit of 2004, but on the other end the temps west of the Cascades have been so impressive. Some kind of hybrid between 2004 and 1968? Kind of similar performance to late January/early February 1996 as well, although the deeper snowcover on the eastside helped beef up the temps with that airmass. Spokane had over a foot on the ground and hit -24 on the 2nd after the upper level support had already peaked. But this one wound up being way colder than 1996 or 2004 for Fraser River outflow, and I definitely think a bit more impressive through the gorge as well in terms of the intensity of the CAA. 1996's advantage was that aforementioned cold pool which got insanely deep in early February as that transitioned to more of a strictly gap based outflow event. 1968 is still on another level from this, but a similar evolution for sure with the PV briefly jumping the continental divide. Very rare stuff and the numbers especially in the northern Rockies attest to that. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
