The Summer was very dull in terms of convection west of the Cascades for Clackamas and Multnomah counties. There was only one brief t-storm that developed near Camas and drifted southward. It only lasted 30-40 minutes. At least it wasn't scorching hot though. This fall so far we've had a few minor wind events, a few t-storms, but yeah that big 'dynamic' event not yet. You're another mainstay here, another favorite of the forum, Justin.
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.
