Meatyorologist Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 4 minutes ago, gusky said: Is this a natural feature, or something weird with the radar? Both! Radar beams hit the terrain around NW Seattle/SW Shoreline, which stands just above 500' high above the Puget Sound (not including our tall evergreens!) Radar beams are blocked and subsequently create holes and streaks in the radar where there shouldn't be. Closer by to the radar and higher up than this area is the Snohomish county plateau at over 600'. This terrain feature creates some "false positive" returns, where echoes off of terrain reaching back to the radar dome are interpreted as heavy precipitation. All this can be avoided by switching to a higher tilt, which scans at a higher angle. The only caveat to higher tilts is that it loses utility faster with distance from the radar, as it scans higher above the ground faster. Tilt 1 is useful beyond Centralia; tilt 4 is sketchy near Seattle and near useless beyond Tacoma, depending on the meteorology. 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...
