I had about 16” of snow on the ground with temps falling into the mid teens that evening. No power. Trees down everywhere. It was epic. 

We had a wet snow shower at some point, so pretty much the same.😍

Yeah... it was pretty ironic to be playing the Packers in the snow at home.

ECMWF keeps shifting north and east with each run with the heaviest snow tomorrow... the 12Z run does not even show the central Cascades and Snoqualmie Pass getting much at all.     Previous runs also showed Pullman being buried (tracking for my son) and the last couple runs have shown the heaviest snow farther north over there.   Looks pretty snowy for Spokane now.

North wind was wild and took out our electricity as the front went through! 
When I left for work the following morning people were still trying to get home from the evening commute before!   Crazy fun night!

It will probably change up until the actual event. October 9th, 2019 was suppose to be light snow or snow flurries. Parts of Spokane got 5-6 inches of snow.

Sorry Tiger. Things will get better soon I’m sure.

Nah like, I genuinely am bummed for you that you didn't get your first freeze yet. Apologies if that came across as condescending.

PDX was never expected to get a freeze with this pattern. 36 was actually a decent overachievement. Still managed to score a freeze IMBY though.

Change in the ECMWF appears to be related to that low cutting off much further west over the Pacific.  Could be its cut-off bias coming into play.   Time will tell.

There was actually a slight southward trend with todays 12Z.  And also with the NAM. I am in the central cascades, east slope, and it shows a bit more snow for me than the one last night.  Also a bit of an increase in the QPF.  Main detail according to the Spokane NWS is that a north trend brings in warmer air, and that may lower our snow totals.  A tough forecast for sure.

12Z EPS also pops up another ridge after day 10...

Can sorta see the progressive pattern developing via those anomalies, however. 

I think it’s only a matter of time before things go zonal for a few weeks.

Some warm ups and cool downs mixed in there as well?

Yeah... my guess is the second week of November.

November 8th is 17 days away. 

Yes... my guess is that the flow goes zonal after the first week of November.   

Hopefully its focused to the south in northern CA and OR and not on WA.   That would be a waste.

I should take a drive to my uncles Summer place near Orondo. Would be a much nicer than the AQI of 505 that I had the joy of the last time I was there. 

Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth!
