luvssnow_spokane Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 One thing I like about the nearly unbelievable 18z is the setup and the trajectory of the cold. We have not seen this setup in most of the other teases and past fails this year. Something about this run that intrigues me is the setup is much better and much more like what we normally see verifying here, making is "slightly" more believable. In the end I highly doubt it occurs and if it does it will moderate significantly but the mountains may be rewarded, which I am hopeful for. 1 Quote My Weather Station https://tempestwx.com/station/61434 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard mann Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Addressed to whomever here more generally.  Include this in your speculation / evaluation / assessment more general, relative to what's being shown for the 14th. Cold west (whatever there is of it.) should be, having started to move at a significantly more stepped up pace east, on the 12th or so.

Jesse Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 My favorite flowers are the natural breeds that grace the sub-alpine and alpine meadows of the high Cascades for a few short months each year. The wildflowers of the eastern Gorge and high desert that bloom each April-June are also spectacular. Domestic garden flowers are alright, but relatively boring. I guess daffodils in our yard right now are kind of pretty. I'm not biting my nails over potential frost damage, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
