I don't smoke but it looks like the models do.

You sure

[Monty]

Anyone else put snow tires on yet?

I hope I didn't jinx anything...

Yes. But we do it more for driving with possible black ice, pretty common here. Snow is comparatively easy to drive in.

Seeing people admit on the other forum that weather has ruined there life when it doesn't go there way is scary. It's just weather at the end of the day. I just never understood letting it ruin your life or make you mad. We all want the cold and snow but that's just a fun bonus to our lives.

The following work and school week looks more routinely damp and breezy at times. Chilly air due in on Friday may bring on some fits and starts of "chunky rain" for the foothills or Hood Canal as the snow level drops, although it's a ways out to count on that yet.

He has some mental issues. Has openly admitted to taking medication to get him through and model collapses and his inability to except the warming climate is not making things easy on him. He can be a bit of an ass at times but some of his issues are probably out of his control. Sort of like telling someone with depression to be happy. It’s not that easy.

Wasn't that the winter Mount Baker recorded their highest snowfall for the month of January? or for the season?

1998-1999 was the record snow year for Baker

Tracking some lowland snow for Thurs afternoon with some continental air in place. GFS depicts Trace to 2cm.

I think it's too bullish on it. Airmass may be too dry anf precip arrives during midday. We need to see that system drop in overnight or early Thurs.

GEM is having none of it. Gives us a week of mild rain including a 6 day AR event Wed through Mon followed by what appears to be the first arctic blast of the season being primed over the West Coast.



Definite flooding.

[PortKells]

Whoa. That's a nice block on the GEM. Nito suddenly bringing some good news?!
That cold pool on the GFS needs to travel south. Please don't socially distance for Christmas

Not all good news.

8 days of mild snowpack melting rains till we get there!

That AR event does look nasty. I really hope that doesn't happen for the sake of this mudpit of a property I live on.

Really cold air in AK and YK at the end of the GFS run

I never knew he dealt with mental issues, That's no joke. I've lost friends to depression. I hope his medication helps and one day he can move to a better climate.
