We are under a wind advisory until 10 PM tonight.  As far a snow goes, my area is only expecting maybe an inch.  The west side of the state is under blizzard warnings.  So this won’t be a good day to be tr […]

Yesterday was sunny but very cold.  The low temp on my weather station read 0°F yesterday although temps from the airport showed 4°F as the low.  It is always a few degrees colder here in the country so that’s not […]

A new calendar year has begun, and a week-long cold spell in the Pacific Northwest is ending (at least for the West Side!).  A push of milder air and south wind has begun today, which should lead to classic […]

Yesterday was cloudy with light snow falling most of the day.  The heavier snow came later and overnight.  We got what was predicted (3-6 inches) and I’m happy with that.  At least there was no freezing rain an […]

Our morning has seen temperatures falling since early morning and the snow is expected to begin late this afternoon.  Most local meteorologists have settled for a forecast of 3-6 inches for most of southern lower […]

There seems to be some difference of opinions on how much snow we’re supposed to get, but the majority of weather gurus in our area seem to be set on 3-6 inches.  A few others are saying that it could be as much […]

We are expecting what could be a major winter storm on Saturday night and into Sunday.  Forecasters haven’t given us a definite snow amount yet but it could be significant.  The guestiment at this time is 6+ i […]

December has been mild and temperatures have been above average most of the month.  We haven’t seen much in the way of snow, and what we did get, melted right away.  We had some snow showers late yesterday which d […]

After a mild day yesterday, today is much cooler.  Our deck was a glare of ice this morning and I found out the hard way.  But all is well and nothing hurt but my pride.  Highs today aren’t expected to rise mu […]

My picture is what I saw this morning at 4:30 as I looked out my window.  We did receive a little over 2 inches of heavy, wet snow which was hard shoveling.  I had to do it so my fur baby would go out and do her b […]

Our Christmas Day was actually very nice.  Temps were quite warm, light breezes, and no rain which was predicted.  We had great weather for cooking out and light jackets were adequate.  Today looks beautiful ou […]

Merry Christmas!  As I write this around 10am, it’s 37 degrees outside in my Orchards neighborhood with light rain.  I don’t see any signs of slush mixing in…but I imagine a few hundred feet up in the hills a f […]

We aren’t going to have any snow for Christmas but I don’t really mind.  I haven’t really been in the Christmas spirit this year.  Maybe my surgery had something to do with it.  My knee is doing fine but still gi […]

Running out the door to head to my energy trading shift, but thought I’d post a quick update regarding the historic arctic blast and our accompanying lowland snow chances before then. Hope to have more tomorrow […]

Where we have snow, there is about half an inch.  But an earlier snow shower gave partial covering to the bare areas and not sure if we’ll get anymore.  There is a line of snow just to our north which seems to b […]

It is very chilly out there this morning . Our 10:15 AM temp is only 22°F (-6°C) and winds are out of the west northwest at 8 to 13 miles per hour. Highs today are only expected to reach the upper 20s. Our snow c […]

It’s been the buzz of Pacific Northwest weather geeks for several days now.  And at this point, models are zeroing in on the basic pattern.  So it’s time to say:

Our region is looking at a significant winter c […]

The Pacific Northwest has seen tons of mountain snow over the past 10 days. Since December 9, Snoqualmie Pass has seen approximately 8 feet of snow, and all of the major Cascade ski resorts, from Mt. Baker in the […]

We had intermittent snow showers most of our Saturday, and we received about another inch of new snow.  We now have 2 inches of snow cover.  It’s amazing how much it brightens up the inside of the house.  On dr […]

I got up to 1.5 inches of snow on the ground and it’s been snowing steadily since then.  I’m guessing that we now have 2+ inches.  The birds are having an eating frenzy this morning and I’m glad that I filled a […]
