Phil Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 1 minute ago, SnowHawks said: February 2nd and 3rd 1916 Seattle two day snowfall 38 inches per Seattle Times. So if you have a large pool of water (Pacific) and the right conditions(not warming the atmosphere as your low pressure lands), then yes large snowfalls can occur in the Puget Sound. 38” in 2 days is certainly believable. Certainly not *impossible* Seattle could’ve seen 6 feet in 3 days. It’s happened in New England despite less of a moisture source, so odds are it can happen in the PNW too. I just want some details on how/where it was measured. If that info is out there I’ll believe it.

But again, I’m open to being proven wrong. As I say the event involved a 28.20 low taking a flat track across southern WA. Well documented. There were two major surface lows with an endless firehose taking place between the time of the two lows making landfall. There was also a huge amount of backwash snow behind the second low. It happened. There is also information on it from the Signal Service which was basically the old weather service. I do not post stuff that I haven't proven to my satisfaction. The research I have done is part of the book I've working on for about 25 years now. Slow I know.... There's a town called Yale in SW WA that had 10 feet of snow BTW. There are just too many towns that reported these crazy totals to doubt it. The interesting thing about the Puget Sound area is all of the towns were right on the water. Can't imagine what traditionally snowier places might have been like. 1 Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

I can’t imagine what 1916 was like in my area. 135” of snow in 40 days with very little thawing between snowstorms 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 February 2013 and 2015 were the only ones since I’ve lived here we didn’t have any snow. We even had an inch in the otherwise torchy February 2016. 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!

It really is fascinating and I have scraped a lot of data together over the years. That includes some of the consequences of the event. There is even a map that was drawn at the time showing all of the low tracks that month. The two that nailed Seattle are very obvious. As I also posted above. Something crazy was going on with that winter. Sacramento's 24 hour and storm total precip records were set in late April! Those records really haven't been approached since. It was well documented and recorded in Sacramento and up in the Sierra. I am thinking the polar vortex setup shop right off of the coast of Washington that Jan. Then again further south on the last week of April. How else would truckee at 5900' get 130" of snow in the last week of April! Extraordinary winter all around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice December event, but otherwise disappointing. Don’t get me wrong I loved the last week of December, but the next couple weeks look extremely disappointing. Long range is looking terrible. My snow depth in my yard could realistically go as follows.

That’s more than I’ve seen in the last 23 months combined. And the pattern turns much more La Niña like towards the end of the month or early in February. -PNA/SE ridge, cold west/warm east. You’ll get plenty of snow then. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 Insane amount of snow for Oroville. Max depth in the dry climate is usually 4 or 5 inches on the ground. Looks like about 14 -16 inches. 7 2 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
