Cascadia_Wx Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Wind has gone calm at PDX, and they are sitting at freezing at the 3 o’clock hour. I wonder if the southerlies will break through there soon. Still have light easterlies here, and holding at 31. Pouring out there but it’s close enough to freezing now where ice isn’t accumulating as quickly. 5 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLI snowman Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 4 minutes ago, Cascadia_Wx said: It’s too bad we couldn’t get a little more snow with the mid and upper levels cooling and cold air remaining at the surface. Kind of like they’re seeing up north today. But that’s definitely wishful thinking. Unfortunate balance. 850s do briefly go below freezing for us today but by then the rest of the column is f*cked and completely saturated, and offshore flow doesn't reassert itself until tomorrow as the upper levels resume warming. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andstorm Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 5 minutes ago, BLI snowman said: Euro agrees with the rest of the models in showing the strong outflow tomorrow. Just keeps temps a degree or two too warm for ZR. It also shows the gorge fully mixing out tonight with the westerly surge behind the low, so that's probably the kicker in terms of keeping our coolant supply sufficient for tomorrow's precip. But the Euro is likely being too aggressive with that gorge warmup as it has been with ours in the metro area. So it seems like a midday dip below freezing is very possible. I think it’s a classic case of EURO overdoing the warmup but GFS seems pretty off its meds with outflow pushing temps back to the 20s with fairly substantial and widespread ZR. Such a scenario would be almost unprecedented in my 40 years of living in this area and being pretty glued to weather events. What is instead likely to occur is areas in Gorge never warm up and they experience a second surge of nasty weather tomorrow and probably beyond. The extended Gorge events are a dime a dozen and this has all the ingredients for another one. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should hopefully keep any ice accumulations light. The precip rates look pretty heavy and the timing would be disastrous with it coinciding with the evening commute, so hopefully we avoid it altogether. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
