April 2024 Weather in the PNW

[Cascadia_Wx]

Lovely evening from the Winco parking lot.

[Cascadia_Wx]

Ended up with a 54/42 spread here. Frequent morning showers then a ton of afternoon sunbreaks with showers widely scattered.

Ended up with a little over .20” for precip. Just about 1/4” to go to hit 2” on the month. We’ll see how tomorrow goes.

I shopped at Winco today, AS WELL. In the fine city of ALBany.

Mariners were being no hit into the 8th and walk it off.   How sweet it is.

And the Nuggets just hit the game winning shot and walked it off against the Lakers eliminating them from the playoffs. What a night!

GFS is slowly coming around for later this week, but still a pretty big split between the operational and the ensemble for a day or two there.

Writing seems to be on the wall. I'm pulling a Tim and going east of the Cascades this weekend.

Look how Oregon is uniquely blessed by the Wednesday night system.

Your Billy Graham/Tony Robbins schtick needs to stop.  Also, who the phuck cares that you met someone from DC that hurt his knee, gimme a phucking break, was his name Tim as well.  Your dooshbaggeryness is out of control and you somehow are still allowed to post on here.  A lot of comments from you lately are just blatant a$$hole statements and gloating about being a bully, were you bullied in high school or were the one being bullied, its tough to figure out, someone your age acting like this on a weather forum is straight up psychotic and uncomfortable to see.

Some weird ULL action on the long range GFS.

I always like the John Day fossil beds area this time of year. Did a really nice camping trip over that way in May of 2005 which opened my EYES to that area as a young lad, Andrew.

Your video reminded me of when I was a cashier at Safeway and seeing/talking to customers about interesting weather right outside but being stuck at the register. So close but so far…

So close yet so far...

Okie dokie!

I just do what others do to play along.   Andrew gets it with the God stuff... obviously since he does it like 20 times a day.   Don't give a flying crap whether you get it or not but won't be changing.

Ur preferences are wrong.

I don't think a single normal person would disagree with my stated preference, its more so that our situations are different. In my opinion, nothing beats a nice 90 degree camping with family, hiking in the morning, swimming and boating in the beautiful blue lakes and green forests in the afternoon, BBQing in the evening, and having a roaring fire under the stars at night. Much better than a slushy inch of snow if you ask me...

And besides, I've already seen PLENTY of snow this winter. Have had tons of days skiing, 92" here this season, and not to mention that I'm about to spend 2-3 weeks at Denali in nonstop cold and deep snow, there will not be a moment that I'm not surrounded by snow. I think I've had my fill of backyard snow for the year...

Don't believe any of it but it sure spreads the troughy mania across the entire country.

[Sunriver Snow Zone]

28 degrees currently which is the low of the day, our high was 42. Not a single drop of rain today despite the snow.

 

Go to bed @TT-SEA, it's wayyy to late in georgia.

And he seems to be one of them.   He makes me actually laugh out loud though so that is nice.

All this celebration for abnormally crappy weather feels like May 2022 all over again.    Also a rapidly evolving Nina that year.    Feels like a nasty offset might be ahead.   Personally I would prefer climo weather.   But we don't have a choice.   I didn't like spring 2022 and sure didn't like late summer and fall 2022.   I might be saying I told you so by July.    And I won't be happy about the heat and smoke either.   

My thoughts as well.

[Tyler Mode]

Happy almost May!!  Down to 38 this morning here in town and 0.06" so far.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Willamette basin snow pack is now back to 101%. SLE is now at exactly average temp for the month. 

[MossMan]

.08” so far on the day, 4.34” for the month. 
39 degrees. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Beautiful morning with life rain falling.

Its hilarious that a post following up on Phil's discussion of knee injuries of all things is what set him on fire last night.  Chris just doing Chris things.

Also... that map is as of 5 a.m. and of course if its raining it will probably be warmer than normal before dawn.   The day will not be warmer than normal.

Fireball set him on fire, seems like. My boy was on one last night. lol

0.01” overnight, so barring any showers today I’ll end April at 1.00” exactly.

Third straight cold April for the Seattle area with Sea-Tac at -1.1 F if I did my math right. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

My co worker in Sun River is talking about snow… 

[TigerWoodsLibido]

50F and mostly cloudy.

Leaving for NOLA on Thursday night for a cruise. My wife and I took 3 years but we finally saved up enough to take an actual honeymoon.
