Abbotsford_wx Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Most people meaning the general public. I wouldn't say that most of us don't care, but most of us know when the ship has sailed. When it's February 1st with nothing good on the horizon, my mind tends to start focusing more on spring. It's pretty hard for this climate to string together a decent number of cold and snowy days after mid February. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow_wizard Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 As of tomorrow it will have been a month since my last sub-32 temp out here. Have had a few 33 degree mornings but wind and low clouds during good radiational cooling setups for the valleys have really kept things up in this part of the Gorge. I have managed to scrape up a 27 and 32 in the last two weeks. Exciting! Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

snow_wizard Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 You are so obsessed... you realize most people don't care at all. And many of the people being impacted by cold and snow would rather have it warmer. There are a fair number that aren't happy about the situation in the mountains. And yes I am obsessed.

Even the wet months since that time... and there have been many as 2014 was one of the wettest ever in Seattle... have featured at least some decent weather at times. Remember we had the wettest spring and early summer ever last year.

I know for a fact that another 2010 or 2011 is coming. Also the type of spring and early summer that Jim detests. And everyone else living here.

VancouverIslandSouth Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Looks like there will be a bit of a pattern mixup in the mid-range, energy pouring out into the GOA seems set to dislodge the Hudson Bay vortex that was a fairly persistent feature of the past month. This looks snowy for the BC North Coast and Alaskan Panhandle. Not a lot of hope for snow on the South Coast but we may see some more dynamic weather for a change. http://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/gfs/2015020118/gfs_z500_mslp_namer_24.png Coastal SSTs are sure toasty, could add a few extra degrees of warmth than we would normally get under SW flow. http://www.ospo.noaa.gov/data/sst/contour/washngtn.fc.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until we do those warm SST's won't go away. Obviously the closer we get to spring the less difference the warm water will make to the observed temps.
