I keep hearing this over and over: A warmer earth is more humid, leading to more and more extreme flash flood events. Indeed it has been very humid!! 80 to 85 dewpoints are getting common in SE Iowa!!! But why and the crap isnt it wetter!!!! Our yearly precip is plummeting here!!! The next 60 yr period will prove it. My county has a 6 to 12 inch precip yearly deficit starting in 2012!!!! If warmer leads to wetter IT SURE ISNT HERE!!!! NO DARN LIFT HERE. I HAVENT HAD A .50" RAIN SINCE JULY!!! 2017 TO 2018 I HAD A 18 MONTH PERIOD WITH JUST ONE 1" EVENT!!!! NO LIFT!!!!

Nice snow signature on the Snoqualmie Pass traffic map. Been a while since we’ve seen that. Hope Alpental isn’t too far from opening.

00z ICON too east again.
