January 2021 weather observations for the PNW

[Timmy]

Just rain here but it is close.  

[snow maniac]

Light rain here 36 degrees 

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Looks like you can see low pressure circulation west of Aberdeen off the coast.

[Rubus Leucodermis]

Light snow falling this morning. Ground is dusted with white. Temperature 32˚F, dew point 29˚F.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Some light snow falling now and 34.

[MWG]

Nothing here yet! 29 and part cloudy.

 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Looks like Redmond fell into the single digits again last night. 

[TacomaWaWx]

Just a little too warm here 37 DP of 33 and light rain. Precip doesn’t look like it’ll get much heavier so not much chance of a changeover. 

[Ray]

37 here.  A few big drops of rain starting to fall.

Per the models... the bulk of the precip on the coastal radar will be sliding to the SE and won't move through the interior of western WA.  

[Chewbacca Defense]

Light snow and 31.8.  Hopefully the city will be sending a plow truck down our street soon to try and get control of this.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

FWIW the 12z GFS shows snow from about PDX north on Wednesday morning. 

[MossMan]

I have a slight dusting in the landscaping. 
33 degrees. 

[Winterdog]

35 and very light rain here.  Uncomfortable and so PNW like.

[MossMan]

Snow picking up again. Very wet stuff. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Temp has dropped to 33, just a very light dusting so far, snow is extremely light. 

[umadbro]

Splat test is positively negative.

37 with light rain.

[MWG]

Some very light snow at the moment and 30 degrees.

[smerfylicious]

Rain/snow mix in Mill Creek. It's like Fall 2.0

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Tuesday night/Wednesday morning does look like a decent chance for PDX/north. Aside from that, maybe some minor lowland snow chances here and there depending on precip timing, but nothing overly exciting through hour 216. Trough axis continues to trend West.

[seattleweatherguy]

36 with a dp of 34 rain just a tad too warm

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Wife said it turned to snow about 1400' on the way up the hill this morning. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Well hello...

What is it saying about 2m temps in that time frame? Yesterday it was advertising a full-blown arctic blast.

[MossMan]

Just lumpy rain at the Smokey point Costco. Going to run up to my old house since I’m close to compare conditions. Yes I am crazy. Here is a video of my drive up to our neighbors at 700’ on my way out a bit ago! 

[SalemDuck]

12z shows a nice arctic front at day 12

[SouthHillFrosty]

36 and light rain. Closing in on 700 days since I’ve had a inch of snow

So was yesterday’s. It seems to keep moving later day by day.

Closing in on 35 days here. Here’s hoping both of our counts get reset to zero soon. The overall pattern is favorable.

[BLI snowman]

Clown range almost gets there. 1060mb high in the Yukon.

[Blizzard777]

Even if it was cold enough to snow here this pattern sucks for my area. 

37.6 winds remain calm, 32 dp

[Jesse]

38 and light rain this morning. Aside from the airmass not being very cold to begin with, the timing was pretty unfortunate for seeing flakes this morning, with cloud cover moving in right at sunset last night. Spent most of the night at 39 degrees.

Looking like an extended period of opportunity could be coming up at least.

[ShawniganLake]

About a 1/4” of rain this morning. 33-34F.

I had basically the opposite happen here, which allowed me to get a dusting despite low precip rates and my low elevation.

Think our flakes will come Tuesday evening. Looks like a good bet to drop us to 34 or so. Outside shot at some 33 degree slush.

Slightest dusting on the ridge this morning...

[MossMan]

Was just a rain/snow mix at my old place, no accumulation. Back home and here is my massive accumulation in my weedy neglected area. 
And the PNA...Other than those 3 Tim members it looks like it could be a short lived spike. 

[Jesse]

Pretty impressive the way the jet looks to hammer California the next 7-10 days. Very suppressed look.

[MR.SNOWMIZER]

Still holding at 34 with wet snow falling. Just some slush on the cars.
