My earliest 3" or plus snow was 11/19/11. Nice event. 

I was supposed to start a 2 year job assignment in Spokane this fall. 2 weeks on 1 week off. I was really looking forward to it. COVID had other plans. Maybe next year. Even being up there last November was nice, real winters they have.

I logged 2.5" on 11/17/2011 and 1.75" on 11/05/2011. 5.3" for that month.

I bet the new average snowfall numbers (1991-2020) for November and March are switched around at my place. It used to be 4" for Nov and 2.5" for March. Yet according to my notes I have seen more 3-6" inch snow days in March and a far higher number of days which I observe snow falling, which includes wet snow.

Unless November has plans to come back as one of the major contributing winter months again but I'm doubting that.

I think we start that way but end up with a snow event around Turkey Day.

I felt I did pretty well last winter in terms of snow. January was a total torch, but we had a decent snow event. February and March were chilly with several snow events. Overall probably the 2nd warmest winter we’ve had behind 14-15, but middle of the pack for snow. For what a lame winter it was, we probably overachieved for snow.

No matter what happens this winter, it will be a lot better for Seattle south. I do not think we even got an inch last year winter

We didn't have a high temp below 40F all winter. Worst all-time.

I notice the EURO seems to be moving towards a solution of cutting off energy around Day 4.5 to 5 with a cut-off low shunted southward. Ridge offshore merges with upstream block. With that cut-off out there anything is possible including an unseasonably or rare mid-October cold snap. C'MON!!!!

 

18z GFS running now. C'mon Drunk Uncle!

Dåmn.

 

What makes it particularly bad is it’s hitting the same area Laura hit. It’s going to make much more a mess of things than your average Cat 2 storm just because it’s following up on buildings already damaged by a Cat 4 (and in most cases not repaired yet).

Very much a nonevent so far, we have a wind advisory and a SCA, and have not seen crap for winds, and just barely enough rain to wet the pavement.  Currently 61 after a high of 63 and a low of 55.  Very bummed to see the SCA extended to Sunday, I was hoping to bomb out to my favorite campsite on the islands and get one last trip in.

Probably (as in: almost certainly) not gonna get as cold as the drunken uncle claims it will. -10°F is the record coldest temperature for all of October in Bozeman.

Ah but it dropped to -14F just last October at Gallatin Field (-9F in my backyard) which is now the new record. So while the 18z is probably off the rails it is not unrealistic.

I honestly hope we don't see another early season arctic outbreak like that again. We lost four of our trees as our deciduous trees were not in full hibernation yet. You can still see the early cold effects all over town with nearly a thousand trees not making it either.

Hopefully we see that very excited little guy every time a model run comes out this season instead of the sad guy.
