Chowders Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 2 hours ago, MossMan said: I am currently grading this winter an A- The massive amount of rainfall in November, the big westerly windstorm in mid November, the near summer like day at the beginning of December followed by chilly weather leading up to Christmas. A white Christmas Eve and Christmas, over a foot of snow between Christmas and New Years, a low of 3 degrees, over 7 straight days below freezing, and I currently have more snow on the ground right now than I have had on January 6th dating back to 2013 in my picture folder. Though I did have slight accumulation on my roof in 2019! Now all we need is one or two more fantastic snow/cold events late month thru the first part of March and the grade goes up to an A+! Oh and I see they cleared the measuring sticks at Sharis! If you look now he shoveled the roof too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joelgombiner Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 They definitely happened in the past, but the intensity and frequency of all these AR's reeks of climate change... [https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/2015JD023586] Much of the focus of recent research has been on the response of precipitation in warming projections. Few studies have focused on the explicit response of ARs, as intense moisture transport events, to warming. Dettinger [2011] was the first to investigate this topic using an ensemble of projections from seven global climate models used in the fourth Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment report. Comparing historical simulations to end of the century warming projections, he found an increase in moisture transport and an increase in the number of years with many ARs. Investigation was furthered by use of data from CMIP5 in Warner et al. [2015]. They identified ARs using the 99th percentile of moisture transport along a transect just off the coast of North America in 30 years of historical simulations and RCP 8.5 projections from 10 different models. Similar to the findings in Dettinger[2011], Warner et al. [2015] found a robust increase in moisture transport within ARs, but little change in lower level winds. While focused on the eastern North Atlantic, Lavers et al.[2013] found similar increases in AR intensity as Dettinger [2011] and Warner et al. [2015] using an ensemble of five models participating in CMIP5 and a different method to identify ARs. Quote Useful weather links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Aquarium stores will have submersible pumps for sure. Hardware stores should have water pumps as well. I would take everything off the garage floor for now. You may be able to sweep a lot of water out with a big broom depending on the layout. If the water can come up through the floor, it will drain out as well when the rain stops and the water table drops. 1 Quote Useful weather links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 We have had 3-4 inches of rain out here today and yet the Snoqualmie River is not projected to get anywhere close to flood stage. I am not sure why... but guessing its because all the precip in the mountains came down as snow and not rain. Normally this much rain in one day would cause some significant flooding issues in North Bend and Snoqualmie. 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...

VancouverIslandSouth Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 2 hours ago, snow_wizard said: If I was going to move to Whatcom County that would probably be my top choice. Sometimes Sumas just gets so consumed with dry air they don't get much snow. Lynden seems to have a good mix of holding onto cold air, but still get moisture in most cases. Or just jump up to Hope, it's still 16F and snowing there. It's typically the longest coastal hold out when it comes to sustaining Arctic air and gets huge amounts of snow for the elevation. Pretty incredible gradient in the Fraser Valley now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
