Are the pictures from the above 2 posts from the same storm?

They are I think. 

We need to identify this meteorological feature that spawns these in the same places. 😜

I never thought I'd see the day when Jim would say a high of 53 is a chilly day.

My god. 53 is well, 53.

52 chilly degrees here now with light showers.

Not sure why McChord is always referenced.   ECMWF shows the same high at SEA that day.

I’m seeing some strong bust potential for some locations for the Thursday evening into Friday morning event. Hard to say exactly where at this point. Could be the Puget Sound, could be the Willamette Valley including Portland, could be the northern Oregon/southern Washington coast, could be the I-5 corridor in Washington. 
 

Anything under .50’’ by daybreak on Friday is a bust in my opinion.

Well... its going to rain every day beyond that as well so it's not quite as important like it would be with a one shot deal in July.

Offshore flow seems to be kicking in again... precip on radar moving north just evaporated and the temp is starting climb.   Might hit 70 here tomorrow afternoon.

Weak mesocyclone 

Was more specifically going for Clark County having the large majority of them in the PNW. 

I already got the mesocyclone part down.

Wind is light from east here this evening, I wish it would stay this light with an impending snowstorm, we would get buried.  But with a rainstorm it gets smothered quickly, and it pours.

Getting a glimpse of the full moon through the broken clouds is quite nice.... and also spooky. 

Currently 52

Let the dog out a few minutes ago and it is really bright out there.

Same here! She was bugging me to let her out so I had an opportunity to look up at the sky. It's still mostly cloudy here but getting the broken clouds at time which I can view the moon.  It's bright.

54/38 today, the moon peeking through the clouds is very Halloween like!

Always nice to see this time of year IMO.

A washout +EPO fall here seems to beget a significantly cold and amplified midwinter period far more often than if it was the other way around.

 

That’s depends what’s causing it.

Eurasian High descent/other intraseasonal scale processes triggered this pattern, and there’s a good chance it reverses in November. Not sure we can read much into that.
