luvssnow_spokane Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Is this comedy night? What's going on? Now we have 2 snowstorms for PDX, 63 and rain in LR, 0Z GFS is freakin' out, winter cancel, a foot of snow for PDX, and the cold spell is now not so cold. How can all this happen in such a short time??? I honestly have to admit living here as long as I have things play out like this more than they don't... For now it is a wait and see but this is something many of us have been through many times. At this point I just do not care anymore. I was not all that excited about a snow to quick slop transition anyway... Maybe this improves our chances for something better, maybe not. 1 Quote My Weather Station https://tempestwx.com/station/61434 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradient Keeper Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Not really. The WRF, EURO and Canadian were all pretty solid on a major cold outbreak. Even the operational GFS came around the last few days. Until tonight. And now the Canadian is following it. Just feels like the whole thing is falling apart on us all of a sudden, and to add insult to injury certain people are rubbing it in. Maybe it would be best if I just stopped posting for the night.If there is some chance that this were to fall apart.... Yep, it would suck, but well life goes on. We've seen it happen before. There is no rhyme or reason. Things happen. Try not to let this or anything dictate your mindset and emotions dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Swamp Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Here is my prediction. Cold blast not as cold and doesn't push as aggressively south. This will allow moisture later in the week to lift further north. Olympia to Everett will get nailed hard with 5-8" of snow. There will be no change-over to rain. Portland snow fans, sorry, this one is going to miss you. Puyallup will remain in its own microclimate meaning 35 and rain for the entire event. Hell, my prediction has as good a shot of verifying than any others. Your welcome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvssnow_spokane Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 I feel about the same. Amazing how much less I care once the calendar turns to February. I peak in December. Yeah... I peak about mid January after that I know realistically getting anything meaningful around here in out modern climate is like winning the lottery. Anything that does happen this time of year is almost guaranteed to be short lived and marginal specially when it comes to sustainable snow. The only thing I really care about is snow in the mountains at this point. If we get lowland surprises then great just let it stick around longer than 24 hours before going to . That is just a waste.

TT-SEA Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Can I ask you a serious question ? Let me give the answer to your question... I love nice weather more than anything else here. Never was like that before moving here. Whatever. Been discussed a million times. I love snow and cold as well... and thunderstorms... and well-spaced rain/wind events. But nothing makes me happier in this beautiful place than our dry weather days. But I do want lots of rain and mountain snow in the next 6 weeks so it can be beautiful this summer.
