North_County Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 1 hour ago, snow_wizard said: A couple comments about some of the posts I've seen on here. One is I have never seen anywhere near the amount snow that has happened in the Cle Elum, Ellensburg, and Easton area. I lived there for a couple of winter, and have had ties to that area for decades. This is truly exceptional. Another is concerning the comment on the crazy AR's this season being a sign of climate change or whatever. The 19th century says hello. Greatest AR events ever witnessed in the NW were in the autumns of 1853 and 1861. There is also sedimentary data which suggests the Skagit had a flood in 1816 that puts any modern day flood to shame. Regarding the bolded, I'd be curious how much modern flood control (specifically, the numerous dams in the upper Skagit basin) affect that. Certainly this past November's AR, focused like a laser beam on the Fraser Valley and Skagit headwaters, would have been much, much worse for downstream Skagit communities if not for reservoir storage throughout the system. No such flood control would have existed in 1816. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow_wizard Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 Regarding the snow in Central WA..I am reminded of when we used to go east of the mountains for opening day of fishing season, and there were still thick patches of snow left in shaded areas around Cle Elum. That was mid April, and I have not seen that since. I suppose the early 1970s is probably the best match to the current regime in recent times. Pretty impressive how many times 1970-71 and 1971-72 have shown up in the CPC analogs over the past few months. Obviously no accident there. I just can't over what is going on over there right now. Probably more of a late 19th century through early 20th century vibe than anything. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

Basically it started around Dec 20 and went well into February. At least 6 inches of snow at Fort Vancouver for all of both Jan and Feb.

I took this pic when I got up around 2 a.m. It was barely raining at the time... that is just how fast the snow was melting off the roof.
