TT-SEA Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 12Z ECMWF does show Seattle and the stadium in the rain shadow from 1-4 p.m. tomorrow. Game starts at 12... and there is rain shown from 10-1 on the same run. So looks like maybe some vigorous showers to start the game and then some sun breaks in the second half. http://s11.postimg.org/he7c6hqs2/nfc.jpg Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poulsbo Snowman Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Dude... I lived in San Diego for 12 years. I know the deal. FOLLOW ALONG... Fred said he does not like the fact that days are getting longer and brighter and he said its all downhill until October. I said that I DO like seasons here. THE NORMAL SEASONS OF THE PNW. Why do i have to to move to a place with no seasons and nothing but sun because I like our seasons here?? Short winter days and long, sunny summer days. You are either not reading or very dense. People who like dark all year long should move to Juneau. That is not normal here. I will take our normal weather. Looking forward to summer now! (for the record... I am not angry but just have no idea what you are talking about and trying to be crystal clear for you) Que the a**-hattery--"You are either not reading or very dense." I didn't address you in that manner--I was just engaging you in a bit of friendly banter. But I've learned my lesson again. So, go stick your head in a box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MossMan Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 For me, as soon as mid March comes along I am done with winter and just want dry, sunny and warm until mid October with an occasional thunderstorm mixed in and perhaps a heatwave or two as well. I do think we will see snow next month however, perhaps even a big event! And we always have sloppy snow in March no matter what it seems like. 1 Quote Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border.

The thing is that whenever a cold shot shows up in the models, it seems to end up being the default, ridge slightly too close setup. Obviously things could and will likely change, but it sure would be nice to see something drop down slightly farther west for a change.

ShawniganLake Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Quite a potent system looking to develop offshore today. In my area, seems like we might expect winds gusting in to 45mph range early tomorrow morning. If the center comes ashore about 100 miles farther south than modelled, it could be stronger. Looks similar to the storm in early November that knocked out power for 2 days here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the ridge will balloon into Alaska in the next 48 hours before disappearing, I bet hour 264 would remind everyone of Nov '10 event. Lots of different flow perturbations over PNW, so at least snow is likely. I bet the cold crew headed by Jim & Tim will be here to ruin everyone's parade soon enough though.

richard mann Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 The 12z ECMWF says the possible cold snap is on again. There have been a minority of very cold GFS ensemble members as well. The ensemble mean shows a massive area of above normal heights over Alaska and the Aleutians late in week two. That would normally be favorable for us, but this season has been unreliable in that regard.With looking at the fuller more hemispheric perspective, 3-hourly, I'd been noticing a somewhat better leaning toward cold settling over Alaska a bit better than it a has been. — Not very well at all over the past month or so.

More basically, with cold north setting up at all nearer to us, more chance for its making it here from other than east of the Canadian Rockies—the if more typically cherished and hoped for "retrograde". — Main and more primary cold's dropping more southward, either more directly or from the NW more. The main cold that we're getting right now and have been, has been from all the way across the Pacific—and not, from more Northeastern Asia.

I agree, There has not been any consistency that stands out to me yet but the models have been showing some promise. Not necessarily that we will get something major but enough to give us legit cooler weather with the potential for snow. I honestly encouraged by some of the longer range 'glimmers of hope' but only about 35.34557432% confident that it means snow for us. -- As Jim and some others have shared there is some positive signs (ensembles and runs) but at this point it does not mean it is even close to verifying.

ShawniganLake Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Quite a potent system looking to develop offshore today. In my area, seems like we might expect winds gusting in to 45mph range early tomorrow morning. If the center comes ashore about 100 miles farther south than modelled, it could be stronger. Looks similar to the storm in early November that knocked out power for 2 days here.The NAM is the furthest south with the low, bringing it into central Vancouver Island. That would likely mean power outages for southern Vancouver Island. The WRF is closer to North/central Vancouver island, which would bring the strongest winds north of here.
