Expecting it just keep creeping up until we're 33-34 by about 1-2 hours after the precip starts, that would be what would typically happen in this circumstance. Often with ZR we are low enough we don't get a big dramatic warm up, but we sit above freezing while places a little lower are dealing with the ice.

Cascadia_Wx Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 (edited) Running colder than yesterday at this time with the cloud cover. Currently only 26 after a low of 16 here. Managed to decouple a little last night with clear skies, but it’s pretty crazy that my low temp for this event (13) was in the afternoon on Saturday, and entirely CAA driven.

Phil Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 2 hours ago, SpaceRace22 said: Also, I know that meatyorologist and Mr Nyberg think I am a literal child for liking the GraphCast (xoxo h8rs) and gave me a good scolding last week for having the audacity to mention it, but I just found this actual skill data comparison for it and it blows even the Euro out of the water. I've also seen some literature claiming that GraphCast especially tends to handle extreme events better than the other models, so I think this is very likely the primary model we are going to be using on here in the future. In particular, I found it interesting how there were a couple times recently where the GFS or Euro (or both) fell off a cliff, but the GraphCast didn't. Look at the periods around Oct 17th, Nov 20th, Dec 30th, and Jan 4th on this chart for some examples of GraphCast completely outperforming the others. Anecdotally, GraphCast did seem to have this whole event over the weekend down better than any other model, so there is very likely a new king in town that I will be there for trusting above all the others in future events. At least around the mid range/5 day-ish period. Still a lot of use for the traditional models in the long and short range periods imo. Poor GFS. Keeps falling behind but trudges on despite its inevitable decommissioning and replacement. 2 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ms. Anthrop Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 58 minutes ago, Blizzard777 said: 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 Good luck to you as well, I hope you've got it mitigated and fixed! Ours is going to be quite expensive, me thinks. There was definitely a leak in the control room because the spray of water took the fire control panel out; the FD finally just turned off the alarm a couple of hours ago so they don't have to come back and check it every time. And as the fire suppression system is totally off, it means that we get to do hourly "fire watch" checks of the building. Other than that, we don't know if any of the other pipes have been affected... which worries me greatly given we don't know when we can get someone in to check. Oh, and the HOA president is out of town so it's me and couple of other folks trying to bodge together a fix. LOL good thing I have an excellent homeowners policy with USAA. All this hassle and no snow to show for it. Not sure I want mother nature to throw us the bone of an ice storm at this point. BOO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
