When are as the last time a sub 960mb low land landfall on Vancouver Island?

The details on track mean we wouldn't see a major windstorm, but it wouldn't take much to change that.

It’ll be interesting to see...very easily could end up making landfall 100 miles SE on central/south Vancouver island. That would put it in the same category as other storms like 1962 1981 1993 1995 and 2006. Were kinda overdue for a big one.

Westerly surge here just blew a transformer nearby and took out the internet. Gusts were in the mid 30s to near 40.

Pressure rises behind the low?

Would likely enhance vertical momentum transfer. All the big blows here feature sharp pressure surges.

Welp, with the non-event overnight the most significant weather event in the south Willamette Valley remains the Labor Day firestorm. Nothing of interest since. That will change in Dec-Jan.

Not all the stations are shown but it was actually quite a bit stronger it looks like. Some spots actually hit 60mph.

Just a breezy fall day here in Bellingham, I’m back working temporarily and they have me downstairs in the middle of the building so it’s difficult for me to GOLU.  Weather station at my house is showing 45 degrees, barely any wind and .65” in the rain bucket.

Last time I did look out the window here the trees were rustling a bit but nothing special.

About the same here, though my temperature is now up to 47°F. Most of the wind action is to the south of us.

I meant on my weather station. I’m about a half mile from the water and protected by a couple of the islands. The winds in the Strait are certainly impressive though.

Look's like Snoqualmie pass turned to a rain snow mix and rose to 34 degrees

Warm sector making its way into Washington now. Mixing out the residual cold airmass that was already in place. That will be replaced with cooler air shortly.

Kind of looks like a reset. Some might see the 500mb heights building in the SE, the positive NAO, and emergence of a NPac ridge at the tail end of the run as a setup to something possibly fun in December. Some might even say that this is all in line with multiple seasonal forecasts that painted once-in-a-generation Nina strength with strong and consistent signals for at least decent DJF troughing.

Getting some moderate winds here after about an inch of rain last night. I have to say though, a wind storm with mostly sunny skies just doesn't feel as stormy to me as one accompanied by clouds/rain. I found these storms more enjoyable growing up near the ocean where you could see storm's effect on the water.

After that burst of winds earlier I went down to Redondo to do my walk. Upon arriving I saw a boat out fishing.  I knew their was a small craft advisory posted but looked like they were doing ok until they decided to come in.  That’s when the story began! 
Took the video of their first attempt.  They tried many other attempts but just wasn’t going to happen as the wind and waves increased.  They finally tried to tie off on the pillars and just sit to wait it out.  I finally made the decision to call 911 for them.  Their was also another fella there and he was on the phone with them as well ( he turned out to be a paramedic).  
long story short they ended up using divers to get some gas out to them as they were almost out.  Then they journeyed towards Des Moines’s Marina which is shelter.  Hope they made it !  
winds were in the 30-40 mph category and crazy big waves at times.

That’s one thing I like about living near the sound is the wind can absolutely rip through here some days. Hope they’re all good. I went outside earlier and it was quite windy.
