Pretty cool show on Rainier this afternoon!!!

[Front Ranger]

Even with the abrupt change towards less troughing days 8-10, the EPS still doesn't show Puget Sound 850s going above normal until day 10, and even then it's a fairly weak signal.

[Cold Snap]

It’s coming!!!!

Pretty weak cold signal as well except for the middle of this week for a couple days.   Most of the cold air goes around us and focuses on the SW.   Looks pretty close to climo overall.   And generally drier than normal.

The WA mountains sure could use some more snow.

Pretty unlikely there is much meaningful snow up here.    The ULL sinks south offshore later this week along the coast.   The mountains up here need it to come straight inland with cold onshore flow behind it.    Not in the cards for the mountains of western WA.

Today = perfection. Morning clouds gave way to afternoon sunshine. Near 60. It’s why I live here.

Even snowed downtown Seattle. Crazy. Wish I could remember stuff like this. Havana syndrome really messes with the memory

Loving the new option to view the entire forum as opposed to switching between regional subforums. So much easier.

Hahahahahaha. Holy s*** I see what I did now, it’s that button on the top right of main page. Somehow was oblivious to it until now.

Again, what?  Did you smoke some homegrown Stampede Pass green tonight?  There is nothing that changes the view of this forum on mobile or PC...

GFS doesn't show precip in Texas now... but still not favorable in terms of clouds.

[Sunriver Snow Zone]

Amazing 12 ecmwf, and great 00z gem, 00z ecmwf not loaded all the way yet. Arrived at twin falls idaho a little bit ago to stay the night, starting tommorow I'll be camping in areas where I'll have no cell signal so I won't be able to model ride until the 5th, hopefully the current trend continues. IM BEGGING FOR IT TO BE CLEAR IN TEXAS!

 

 

36 currently and 68/20 day at my home station. Good night!

Not sure where you are looking but all models ran on time normally today.

Here is 00Z ECMWF.

The GFS is useless for cloud cover.

Silver Falls #'s haven't come out yet, but Detroit, OR had a -1.7F departure in March and Marion Forks was at -0.9F. 

Interesting, I checked out January 1950 at Marion Forks. They had 196" of snow that month and a -6F departure. Impressive, but 1949 was a full 8F colder.

In the mountains, perhaps. None of ECMWF, NAM 3km, or HRDPS show any snow in the lowlands.

Nether does the CFS, GFSxtreme, and Tarot-Pro. Any continued snow talk will result in a ban.

Pretty sure that was an April Fools joke.   

[SilverFallsAndrew]

One more day to get through until

conditions begin to improve.

0z Euro was ridgy in the 8-10 day range. CMC not so much.

“April foolsed ya.”  As my kids say.

BC has 105 active wildfires. 6 new starts in the past 24 hours.  At least 90 of those fires are holdovers from last season, that continued to smoulder under the winter snow cover.
