Wow, I've been hearing the winds hit the house. We are close to the bent back inclusion where the winds are pretty strong. I'm thinking that thin line was were the strongest winds are that hit the house.

Happy Boxing Day!!! Yesterday’s official H/L at GRR was 35/30 there was no rain/snow. There was 13% of possible sunshine. There was a trace of snow on the ground. For today the average H/L is 34/22 the record high of 61 was in 2019 the coldest high of 10 was in 1993. The record low of -6 was in 1951 the warmest low of 54 was in 1936. The most snowfall of 11.9” was in 2001. The most on the ground was 22” in 1951. With just a trace of snow on the ground on Christmas morning it was not officially a white Christmas here in Grand Rapids. It was the 2nd Christmas in a row that did not have at least 1” of snow on the ground. And it was the 5th in the last 7 years and the 6th in the last 10 years. The overnight low here in MBY was 35 there are still snow patches here but they too will soon be gone.

Well that was enough to wake me up and make me move to another part of the house where the trees can’t fall on me

There's the low over southwest Washington. Sting jet/occlusion now over NW Oregon/PDX metro! Strong winds now through 6 am.

Big surge in winds and gusts are becoming frequent!
