This morning was very cold with our wake up temp at only 10F.  Since then, the temperature has recovered into the low 20s and we aren’t expecting it to get much warmer.  At least we can sort of see the sun b […]

There are many well-known portmanteaus of snow and catastrophic descriptors, with Snowzilla, Snowmageddon, and Snowpocalypse being some of the primary offenders. But what about a more pedestrian snowfall that […]

Snow began before I got up this morning and everything was white.  We are under a snow advisory until 6 PM which has been extended from 4 PM.  We shoveled about three inches so far and it is still coming down.  Th […]

A local meteorologist just said that we will be getting more snow tonight and could possible have some moderate accumulation by late tomorrow.  This seems be be happening almost every day.   The snow should be […]

We have light snow falling at this time and now the forecast is calling for up to 2 inches of snow for us.  Yesterday was bright and sunny and I think that will have to do us for awhile.  The sun is rather s […]

Although temperatures are very cold, the sun is bright and it raises one’s spirits just to look outdoors.  It was only 10F when I got up this morning and it has since warmed into the upper 20s.  Unfortunately it w […]

We had sun almost all day on Thursday which was a welcome sight.  Today, we are back with clouds and light snow once again.  We are still not hearing much about this impending winter storms.  Right now, it lo […]

It’s been said that “snow is the most difficult thing to forecast in the Pacific Northwest.” And while I believe this is often true – our terrain, microclimates, and often marginal temperatures can make snow […]

Yesterday was cloudy, but we had some clearing late giving us this beautiful sunset.  Today has been sunny with a few clouds, and temps are quite mild.  Unfortunately, winds are very strong making it very cold i […]

December 2020 was warmer and wetter than normal. My maximum temperature average (45.7°) was 0.5° above normal but my minimum temperature average (32.7°) was much more significantly above normal (+ 4.5°), res […]

This is about the 4th day that we’ve had these exact weather conditions.  Occasional snow squalls from lake effect keep dropping about an inch to two everyday.  It isn’t much but just enough that we have to keep c […]

It’s been a while since we had a significant, regionwide, winter windstorm hit the Pacific NW. The last major windstorm to hit the Inland Northwest was the 11/17/2015 windstorm, which brought an extended period of […]

Today is just another much like the past 3-4.  Cloudy skies with occasional light snow showers happening every so often.  It’s really getting boring.  I wish it would either clear up and be sunny, or bring us a go […]

TEMPERATURES
It was a very mild December as Average Temperatures were about 3° above the monthly Normal. Maximum Temperatures remained in the upper 40s to low 50s through the first 9 days, dropping to the low […]

Our morning was snowy, but now the snow showers have stopped.  I’m estimating that we received about half an inch but most has melted already.  It’s strange how the weather just isn’t changing from day to day, w […]

Temperatures will start going down this upcoming week, but will continue to be slightly above normal.  Yesterday brought us about an inch of very wet snow which accumulated to about an inch.  Most had melted by e […]

Although temperatures reached the low 40s yesterday, we didn’t lose much snow cover.  I’m seeing more bare spots but the snow is still measuring about 2 inches where it remains.  Yesterday was a mix of sunny and c […]

Our weather lately has been boring.  Everyday is like the one before and I guess I shouldn’t complain about that.  I’m seeing where northern areas of the state got freezing rain last night and we sure don’t need a […]
