As you know these can be very tricky on the transition time and when and where it happens. Sometimes they don't change to rain at all until fropa. What is interesting is how far the low is from us and it doesn't take much for the flow to remain offshore depending on where the pressure falls are along the frontal boundary. Honestly these usually remain snow much longer than forecasted. 1 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warm nose potential is lower on this run. It's also a much more typical setup than yesterday's weird, tenuous reliance on easterlies rushing cold air back over us after the SW'lies kicked out the Fraser outflow. This next go around is a simple overrunning event, with cold air in place and warmer moister air overriding it.

It was basically partly cloudy here all day, nothing interesting, and 99% of my snow has melted. Currently sitting at 35 degrees and boring. Keep in mind that the snow reports and images flooding around social media and the forums do not represent the common scene across the PNW, and in fact only represent a specific subset of very fortunate individuals who happen to live in extremely favored, isolated corners of the incorporated PNW. The majority of us on here, including all those living in the metro areas of our region, have seen next to zero accumulating snowfall since our Fraser outflow connection was cut off on Saturday. People aren't going to fill their Twitter pages with their own bare lawns proclaiming, "Wow, look at how bare my lawn is! I got no snow last night!" Instead, pictures of snow are shared at a vastly disproportionate rate compared to "bare lawn" reports. Turns out, people like snow here. Who'da thunk Occasionally you'll still see a post like, "Hey lookie over here, I live in so-and-so and I got 26 inches in 14 hours!".... Except so-and-so is a refurbished outpost town leftover from the 1862 gold rush with a standing population of less than 50 people and an elevation of over 1500' laid deep within a mountain valley. Hard to call that a realistic portrayal of what "the rest of the region" is seeing. Here in Seattle it's 31F and 90% of our snow is gone. I got nothing today. 5 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacomaWaWx Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Would be cool to get another snow event since I missed the big ones. Have enjoyed the last 2 days of weather though dumping rain yesterday and some snow on and off today. Still a few inches of snow in patches around the area so it’s felt pretty wintery still…getting another snow event would make me feel like I atleast got to enjoy some of this event. 2 Quote Tacoma WA elevation 300’ Monthly rainfall-3.56” Warm season rainfall-11.14” Max temp-88 +80 highs-2 +85 highs-2 +90 highs-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
