Yes, Im depressed now seeing seattle is going to score big tomorrow. And you are telling us next year will be our turn. Thank you so much! (Nito, whatever you say, I trust you.)
If this makes you feel better, Seattle is scoring nothing.

It does. So much better. Now let's hope Tuesday night's low place is just where we get snow and they get rain.

If it makes you feel EVEN better, models are warming Seattle up with a southerly wind before any precip arrives by Wednesday :dancepine:

If, and only if, this is safely south of Everett (at least until the bulk of the precip is over).

Today was the first -40 reading at Tatlayoko Lake since December 30th, 1968! So today was the 3rd coldest on record!

The coldest was from 1950 at -43.3C/-46F

What makes me feel better is seeing that it is currently hovering around -10c as we approach 1pm.

Haven’t looked at any models in a couple of days. Is there any chance of prolonging our cold snap?

Unfortunately, highly unlikely. Models quickly reverting back to El Niño climo. But there is a chance of a snowstorm Tuesday night. :silent: :wave:

Poor Hummingbirds. I have 2 of them fighting over this feeder. I have to switch it out every 30 - 45 minutes because it freezes solid!
