February 2015 PNW Discussion

[epiceast]

12z Euro is much better. Colder, and the shortwaves are more pronounced. Hour 240 shortwave should be printed off and framed as the only time we saw zonal flow this winter by those of you who share mountain interests.

[Phil]

 

Cause that's where the facts are at.

 

This really should have been solved by now.

s**t, I forgot all about plate tectonics.

The "scientific consensus" was certainly stubborn to accept that one. Quantum Mechanics too. And stomach ulcers.

 

But have no fear, this time they're right.

[Jesse]

Some people just have a tendency to overreact to it when the water seems to be coming at them faster at times than others.

Claims of my overreactions are overreactions themselves.

[Jesse]

Have no fear. He's taking the science route in college.

What's your degree in?

 

Let's try not to insult the intelligence of others.

[Deweydog]

Claims of my overreactions are overreactions themselves.

I disagree, but at this point it's moot. Weather looks to turn cooler fairly soon!

[Jesse]

I've bookmarked this post.

So no degree?

 

I am legitimately curious. You seem like a smart enough guy.

Didn't you fly off the handle at me a few months ago for a line of questioning like this?

I figure he's accomplished much bigger and better things, what with mocking my science route and knowing so much about the tides!

Glass houses...

[Jesse]

Glass houses...

At least I am working toward an education. Staying at home and taking care of a sick parent the first six years out of High School bites.

 

Also, I wasn't the one that started the credentials questioning game.

[HighlandExperience]

Having a degree these days isn't all it's cracked up to be. Be careful choosing a program.

[Jesse]

Absolutely.

[HighlandExperience]

Absolutely.

Sorry to hear about your parent being sick. I had to help with my father in the last year of my professional program. Really set me back in some ways, but I'm glad I helped.

Thank you. Family definitely comes first with these matters.

[Jesse]

Euro was nice. Now it just needs to verify!

[Deweydog]

Why can't we all just get along. I think we can all agree that as long as you have a degree, high school or college, then you won't find yourself running a weather forum, in a van, down by the river.

Vans are expensive.

[Rustysprocket]

Vans are expensive.

Especially river front vans.

Latest ECMWF weeklies trying to reverse last Thursday's Week 4 pattern. Model clearly is struggling with late March. http://t.co/4tasNStoD9

Well that is good news. Did not know that was going to happen.

 

And that picture must show the exact conditions on Guide Meridian next week. Should be fun.

A banana tree would have perished in those temps!!

It could snow significantly, or it could not.

 

Eye-opening stuff.

[Deweydog]

Looks like they'll have to keep getting their bananas from Boston.

[Jesse]

20F in The Dalles this morning. 

 

I'm sure the freshly bloomed grass widows aren't liking this

[stuffradio]

It was frosty for the second day in a row today.

lol!

[Jesse]

Hoping the Euro leads the way, because the 18z GFS is pretty bland.

Costco parking lot... Issaquah, WA.

 

 

[Front Ranger]

Any believers in the pattern change yet? Is The Torch finally dead??

Could cause a lot of damage with a wet, heavy snowfall....

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Nope.

[TT-SEA]

Indeed.  

 

Not looking good.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

61/28 at SLE today. Wow.

[bainbridgekid]

61/28 at SLE today. Wow.

58/22 at OLM.

[Front Ranger]

Must be a mistake. According to Justin, OLM is headed towards a record warm month. 

[Front Ranger]

Nope.

 

Which question are you answering? This is no time for games.

[Front Ranger]

It has been lately. So there's that.

[TT-SEA]

Not so sure... the GFS has really stabilized since the upgrade. I saw a few funky ECMWF runs last week that made me think this week would be very wet.
