Skagit Weather Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 No snow here.. Everyone got snow out of this cold snap except usNone here and it looks like it is going to pass within 5 miles. I don't know how it could get any closer and still avoid my location.

Skagit Weather Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 Radar trends look promising for you to see something fall at least.

I'm somewhere between 4 and 6 inches, I think. I have to measure again. It's probably only 4-5. At 8:30 or so it was 3 inches and it snow hard for another hour or two. Still snowing now just much lighter. Very pretty snowflakes. Not little flakes and not the big ones, but very fine lacy ones. Easy to see all of their detail.

snow_wizard Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 I will be very interested to see how my area fares tomorrow. The WRF indicates light easterly surface winds well into tomorrow night. With snow on the ground and thicknesses still below 534 it should be pretty cold.

Dadio Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 In some places I have only 3 inches. In others I have 5 inches. It depended on the type of surface the snow fell on. Starting to snow harder at this time. Hope the temps continue falling tonight. It would be fun to have some more snow in the morning before it starts to melt.
