This winter is obviously hot trash and they mostly missed out in 2018-19 and of course 2016-17. They did okay in the first half of 2017-18. 2018/19 was worlds better than 2017/18 here. Got a foot of snow with one storm in Jan 2019 and an epic snow squall along the arctic front with 70mph winds and thunder/lightning. 2017/18 was just a lot of dry cold and wind. Took until late March 2018 to get a 3”+ snowfall here.

Probably the most realistic solution at this point, some models bring the low in a bit further south but climate would tend to have reforming in the Olympic shadow when it hits the coast.

Turned out to be rather tepid and transient. You’re right though, it was close! I agree with your general assessment. There wasn’t a block over the Beaufort, though. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow_wizard Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Just thought I would check in with my latest opinions on things. First of all the reason I haven't posted much is because I'm in a relatively rare mode of being somewhat pleased with the latest pattern change, but is tinged by disappointment over the details being so lousy for snow in the Central Puget Sound region. When I have mixed feelings like that I get pretty unmotivated to post. That having been said it's hard to not be pleased by ensemble means that show nothing but below normal temps for the entire 15 day period. There have also been a couple of GFS runs that get pretty good in early Feb. Probably the most interesting thing right now is how rapidly the Western Pacific MJO wave developed compared to what the models had projected. It is probable the wave will achieve higher than expected amplitude as well which should bode well for us. The long range ECMWF MJO model shows an MJO wave remaining in octant 7 for a long period of time which is about as good as gets for us from an MJO perspective. It would be pretty unreal to have a cold February after 2011, 2014, 2017, 2018, and 2019, but it could well be in the cards. Speaking of colder weather....since the official mid point of meteorological winter (January 15) the average temp IMBY has been 38.7 with an average low of 32.1. A huge improvement from the first half of winter. My low this morning was 25, and the ECMWF advertises another similar low on Tuesday. Certainly not a terrible situation we are in, but it still needs work obviously. 6 Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

I don’t know much about Mazda’s other than my sister attempted to drive her 1985 RX-7 in December of 1990 and couldn’t get it out of the driveway. As her little brother I did a lot of laughing at her. Anyway my uncle is a mechanic and he says the newer Mazda’s can be quite labor intensive to work on and he sees a lot of them. Good Old Scotty agrees...He also hates newer GM products and would have called me an idiot for buying one. I hear so much good stuff about Mazda these days. Everyone on Reddit just sings their praises, but then US News/JD power give them terrible predicted reliability. At the same time, consumer reports has them way up at the top. 1 Quote Home Weather Station Stats for 2023 High - Satans Bunghole Lowest High - Not sure Low - I don't have the data Sub 40 highs - Not quite Sub-freezing highs - Try again Lows below 25 - You're joking Lows below 20 - No 2023 Snowfall - LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNewCulverJosh Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 I am going to predict that we all fall in love with a bomb cyclone into Coos Bay that produces widespread 12-18" totals from Vancouver to Eugene, on February 14th. Jesse will buy it a card. Andrew will buy it chocolates. TWL will buy it flowers. Tim will probably buy it some lingerie. Jim will buy it a new sports car. And I will buy it an engagement ring. 2 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
