Joshua Lake Oswego Posted November 17, 2021 Report Share Posted November 17, 2021 8 minutes ago, TT-SEA said: This event is just 24 hours away and the ECMWF still shows over an inch at PDX. Somehow it still does rain at PDX given that station is over 2 inches above normal half way through the month. Do you need more than 200% of normal precip to be satisfied? If so... you won't be satisfied too often just from a statistical standpoint. Wait until the 18z and 00z runs. That's old news. I don't have a specific target to be statistically satisfied. Maybe when we have a yearly surplus of +10'' or greater for two consecutive years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted November 17, 2021 Report Share Posted November 17, 2021 Even in the wettest month of the year... Seattle averages 12 dry days in November. And out here where the rainfall average is more than double that of Seattle... we average 11 dry days in November. We bottom out in December and January with an average of 10 dry days each of those months. Apparently Hilo Hawaii has the highest annual number of days with rain for any major station in the United States with 272. But even there that still leaves you with 93 dry days each year. 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, it must have been 1989, the lady names the kids in the picture, and I know one of them is the same age as me, and he looks about 5 in the picture...
