Curious as to what will happen tonight in regards to winds-- will be interesting to watch.

I’m looking forward to it. Not going to be a major windstorm or anything, but it should be stormy.

Kind of realistic. 

Agreed. A dusting in my old stomping grounds of Monterey County is totally in the cards!

(sarcasm, but realistic for our region, yes).

Given you know who Leslie Nielsen is I would peg you at over 50 and a Trump voter. I try to find the line between trolling, seriousness, and comedy. If I am ever able to pull it off you will never know which is which.

I'm know who Leslie Nielsen is, and I'm a 28 year old, non-Trump voting moderate-conservative!

I may have under-estimated Mr. Nielsen's popularity.

Probably not, honestly. 

I only know him from Airplane! and I probably couldn't name another film he was in.

I could see it happening later this evening if some of those stronger wind forecasts materialize. Could mix down some warmth.

Although of course we aren't really due for 60 degrees in January. I think it's happened the last three consecutive years with nothing to really show for it the month of.

Our last 60-less January, on the other hand, was AWESOME.

We need to stop the Airplane! quotes. It's just too quotable and will hijack this entire thread. 

And that's what led to my drinking problem.

Last year’s shoe was pretty D**n close to my head when it dropped and the two Februaries prior to that turned out okayish.

As for today, I think we’d need a little adiabatic help.  Dew point spreads seem pretty static at the moment.

Some 40-ish wind gusts could probably help out with the adiabatic element. Time will tell!

I never wish for a windstorm. It is fun to track but only brings destruction at the end of the day.

BUT this is better than the usual circular firing squad. We are going to need to tap into this positive energy later in the month when our dreams get crushed by reality.

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but I was talking to a local met who occasionally posts on here (IbrChris). He said after looking at the EURO weeklies he gives PDX about a 20% chance of seeing accumulating snow before mid-February. Even for my elevation he doesn't think it looks great with snow levels mostly hanging out in the 2-3K range.

I believe it’s actually just like Gerald Ford.

I say there is an 80% chance. We are both right!

I got to hand it to you you are putting in a tremendous amount of effort this year

Look at all the responses that one little troll attempt got. As Andrew just sits back on his thorny throne of SORROW and LAUGHS.

[OysterPrintout]

Talking to my personal weather met bff right now about the models 

 

[Jesse]

I hope Andrew's cholesterol levels are great because he is going to have more hot dogs than he knows what to do with by the time April rolls around.

You are being just as dumb as the Trump supporters who don't believe the manatee mutilation story.
