Gorgeous sunset from Mt Tabor park. Lots of big, downed trees on the north and east side of the park from our ARCTIC WINDS three weeks ago. But honestly the damage wasn’t quite as bad as I feared. I guess the historic shelter took a pretty good hit but that part of the park was cordoned off.

Posted by Skagit Weather,

I was intrigued so I looked up the average high and low temperatures across WA for August of 1899. Olga's average low of 45F is pretty impressive as it's about 4 degrees colder than anything we've seen in the last 50 years. The fact it's so much colder than every other location on the west side does make me wonder if there was an error with the thermometer at that time or maybe it was just incredible cold winds blowing off the straight. The Seattle average high for the month was almost 10 d

Well my dog just died and it really sucks because we couldn’t be there with him when he died. The person that was watching him took him to the emergency room and next thing we know we are getting a Fa

Up to almost 1" now.  Just absolutely ripping right now and hours to go per radar!!

We will need more photos. I'm super excited for you! Out of curiosity how do places like South Bend or Raymond do compared to Aberdeen and Hoaqium? How does that Bay impact snow?

Give me a minute on pics, but SB and Raymond don't tend to fair as well in these kind of events, although I can confirm via my mom in Westport, WA it is snowing there tonight currently.

Mostly snow in Capital Hill in Seattle. 37 degrees so not close to sticking, but clear big fat flakes. Headed home to dry (for now) Everett.

Excellent score for all down south. Still windy as all get out with little to no precip so taking this as our typical sign that we won't see anything meaningful. With that, I'm headed to bed to see what awaits in the morn.

 

Good luck to all the night owls enjoying the splats!

You are probably going to score big from this. If that UW run from earlier that showed you getting like 16 inches verified that would be insane.

Mountlake Terrace dropped from 41 to 36 in under 30 minutes with the approaching band of rain/snow. Almost certainly snowing there now. Should flip to snow pretty quickly for most above about 300 feet IMO. Accumulations may stay above about 500 East of the Sound though.

No need to be sorry, it would've been an amazing phone camera 20 years ago, so I'd still count it as a good camera now. Looked like it was snowing pretty good in the vid you posted, enjoy it!

I don't think precip will last long enough for that.
