Am I reading that map correctly? 91 kts in Hope? That's close to 170 km/h!

Yup, I really do, no drama, happy endings, people are generally nice to each other, it's always snowing and there's Christmas trees...at least the ones I've seen, just started watching them this year and have seen about 6.

The Weather.com 10-day forecast for Bellingham has snowflakes towards the end of the range. Of course, that’s clown range. If the models are still sticking with that scenario on the 5th, then I’ll start getting excited.
It's called clown range for a reason.

The maps probably don’t have resolution to pick up the surface winds in the narrow valley. That’s probably wind speeds at 2000-3000ft. Still incredibly strong.

Gusts up to 100km/hr for sure. The worst will come with a severe band of squalls. The convection charts will be crazy. High based t-storms driven by a sharp contrast in temps above 700mb.

Friday is looking epic.

Call me old but in my experience take what the models are saying reduce by half or two thirds is the most likely outcome. Would be fun if it verified though. :wtf:
