BLI snowman Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 10 minutes ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: That early December 1956 event was pretty great, and no one ever talks about it. 1956-57 was very cold throughout and sometimes gets lost in the shuffle of our great winters. Probably because it was on the drier side and lacked any single massive snow event. The early December event was quick but intense with snow down past Eugene (!). High in the teens at BLI, the 3rd earliest on record at that station. Then we briefly thawed out before going into an extended fake cold pattern in late December. Early January had some modest continental cold before the arctic stuff and snow hit in the middle of January and then the major arctic outbreak. PDX had 12 consecutive highs below freezing with that, which is 2nd all time behind 1930. Then we topped it off with a pretty dynamic February, which included another very late season forgotten arctic event between 2/20-2/22. Pretty big ice storm for western OR with that and a lot of snow for the Seattle area. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Salem had 8.2" of snow with that early December 1956 event, basically two 4" snow events with a 34/18 day in between. Looks like Eugene had about 5" with the early December event. Eugene did really well with the January 1957 arctic event. Looks almost like a December 2013 situation where they had a 7" snow fall followed by some fairly outlier cold lows (-4). 3 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

bainbridgekid Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 11 years ago today was probably the strongest arctic front in Seattle (and especially Kitsap County) since 1990. I was driving home from Bellingham to Bainbridge for Thanksgiving that day and it took over 7 hours. 4 hours of that was to get from UW to the ferry in Downtown Seattle. Came home to more knocked down trees than I've ever seen on the island (even more than the Hanukkah Eve storm in 2006.) Meteorologically it was fascinating because the surface low came in significantly stronger and further North than anticipated which caused both much more snow and MUCH stronger winds than expected. I remember the WRF that morning gave zero snow North of Tacoma and Seattle ended up getting 4-6". Anyone else have special memories from that storm? 5 Quote Everett Snowfall (510 feet elevation) Snow since February 2019: 91" 2023-24: 6" 2022-23: 17.5" 2021-22: 17.75" 2020-21: 14.5” 2019-20: 10.5" 2018-19: 24.75" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in East Bremerton at that time up on John Carlson hill. About 375' if I remember right. That was a good house for snow during the late 2000's. But anyway, I remember it being very cold and snowing several inches powder, and nervous that the wind was coming. We had discussed it ad nauseum on the forum. Wind storm was not a surprise. It was beautiful and then shortly after dark the wind hit. And I mean hit! The first blast came like a bomb. It was awesome, for a while. The windows went completely white from all the powder coming off of the roof once, and the windows were shaking. Then it was howling like mad. Five minutes later, poof, out goes the power. And so it was for five days. Five very cold days without a generator. We had a gas stove (lifesaver) and a fireplace without an insert. Cold times. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really increases the chances for a satisfying outcome for us. Would love see something like early December 1956 and then the big stuff in January. I’m not sure I agree with that. At the very least it’s a double edged sword. Your cold advection source is not Alaska to begin with.
