Perturbed Member Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 3rd day in a row of waking up to a light coating of snow. Still snowing here and the radar has been juicy but it is just a hair too warm to stick well. Probably doing well if you're above 500ft here. Of course the Coast Range microclimate is delivering even at the lowest elevations: 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowerGarfield Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 13 minutes ago, Rubus Leucodermis said: I bet the main difficulty is navigating the phone tree and finding the right person to call. @Chewbacca Defense if you are a weather spotter, you get a spotter ID (some offices don't do ids) and a direct number to call the NWS if certain weather thresholds occur. For example in Spokane's CWA, we call if we get more than 2 inches below3k ft and 6(?) if above. They also love to know mix precipitation, hail if over penny(?) size, etc. Notably they don't care about lightning. The phone number is a direct line and you call saying I'm spotter x at specific location. Here is weather condition Y and how much we have. Condition is stopped/ongoing since Z time. Then you hang up with no chatter or questions. 2 Quote Garfield County/Pomeroy, WA: 2023-2024 Snowfall totals: 14.3 inches HIghest snow total (per event): 5.8 inches total 1/11/24 - 1/12/24.

Snowlova Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 No snow. I’d rate this winter a D*. That arctic blast in Jan was pretty neat tho, recorded the lowest temp imby that I’ve seen and it was nice to see that we are still capable of a somewhat 1950 arctic blast (just needed some snow cover!). season total 0.2 inches of snow. worst since 2014-15. 24-25 should be fun though!
