Stormy!

can we get a state wide version of that WRF High res please?

I think at least flakes in the air are a good bet for tomorrow night. I am leaning towards the Euro solution though it’s just very tough to bet against that model with how accurate it is.

Yeah, that month had two of the more historically impressive anafront snowstorms on record. The March 12-13 anafront hit the OR coast the hardest and dropped 4-8" right down to the beaches basically from Coos Bay on up to Seaside. Biggest snowstorm this century for most of the OR coast. Then the March 21-22 anafront hit a little further east and nailed the Willamette Valley. Eugene had a 36/32 day on 3/21 with about 7" of snow. This Friday setup is definitely anafrontal and an isothermal situation, just TBD if the precip rates are steady enough to drive that snow level down before the system moves along. The 2012 anafront setups were essentially anchored by the incredibly expansive heat dome that developed over the rest of the lower 48 that month. That 3/21/2012 cold front stalled so much that it even inched backward a bit and jumped back northwest-ward into WA.

Druncle still looks good for some lowland snow, looks like best time frame is going to be late tomorrow night into Friday morning.
