PDX's temperature range of 27 degrees so far this month is the smallest ever for November. Maximum of 63 and minimum of 36.
A remarkably stagnant and stale month. 2025 is absolutely vaulting up the list of worst weather years ever. Dynamic weather just doesn't exist anymore.
Ahhh, hey Randyc321! yeah @Black Hole is Derek Hodges who used to live up the street from me, and if I am correct he has a degree and has worked for two NWS offices now. He is currently with the Tulsa NWS. Pretty neat because back in the day he and I used to post a lot of analysis on the old Fox 12 Weather Blog. Hey @Front Ranger did you use a different name in the past? Richard was definitely memorable for his interesting use of grammar and explanations. Snow Wizard(Jim) to me in many ways was/is the heart and soul of the forum. Hopefully he is okay, and will be back sometime this winter. Andy was quirky in his own ways, but knew quite a bit. I don't know what he's up to nowadays. MossMan, honestly might be my favorite poster? It's possible. Tim is also a fixture here couldn't imagine him not being here. Dewey, a sarcastic 'dog', but I wish he would post more analysis.
It's definitely pepto in this case lol. 90" has happened over 4 week periods, but AFAIK it has never happened over a 2 week period. I think Island Park over the hill is more capable of this -- they got 130" in December 1996 for example.
Nothing to be jealous of here so far sadly -- our largest "snowfall" this season has been 2" and we are about to get dry slotted tomorrow.
One of the first superstars on the forum. 2007 I think There a few guys that ruled the convo.
SnoWiz
TTSea
Atmospheric Wraith (AKA Gradient Keeper, or That Old Gorton's Bastard.
Mossman
DeweyDog
Jesse
Front Ranger
There was Black Hole ( who I evidently incorrectly thought became IFred )
Andy In Woodinville
Richard
Also some Mormon kid named Matt
And the Bainbridge Kid.
I remember people posting and asking for detailed localized forecasts. Like me! Me! No Me! Rockstar's in the early interwebs
I was Randyc321 then but changed my name since everyone calls MossMan Randy. I was by in large a lurker, but did post when i had the nerve. This site was not kind to newbies in them days.
That's all I got. Who else can add or correct?
