Am I reading this figure right that the anomaly is provided in +/- inches from average? So areas that receive little annual precip like the southwest are unlikely to ever show reds and the PNW it would be far more likely to see reds or blues in the winter/spring since our precip #'s are so much higher? Scale is hard to decipher too, the color difference between -1.8" and -3.5" is hard for me to see. Bellingham's normal rainfall for all of April is 2.77" but this 15-day anomaly seems to show a similar deficit but only for a 15-day period?

Good news is that the 12Z ECMWF continues the theme... makes sense that we are due to dry out.

56F and mostly cloudy...no rain. Trying to remember the last significant event here. I guess another month's worth of 90F burgers last summer. There hasn't been anything notable since. Really really wish my family could move. What other spots at this latitude are this fuckking boring?

It was the wettest March 13th recorded at SEA with 1.22”. Snow is reported as precipitation via snow water equivalent.

Pretty sure the 13th would've been a rain record too if it didn't fall as very wet snow.
