It’s another hot one out there today, although the smoke aloft might limit our heating just a tad, allowing us to stay a a few degrees below the model-predicted highs for the day. So instead of really […]

Well, I think we’ve all had a chance to draw a weather number we can settle on this week, perhaps! Western Washington has managed a pretty wide variety of weather so far, and it’s barely even […]

I have family in Maryland. 🙂 I haven’t been over that way in a very long time though, almost 20 years since my last big trip, and about 14 since a short drive through the area, on my way down to DC and Virginia. I think our springs have flip-flopped, you all got the wet weather and we’ve been very dry. We set records for warmest…[Read more]

It’s been quite pleasant for the most part, unless you’re a fan of rain. For those of you rain fan […]

Glad you found the blog! I do my updates mainly on Facebook but when storm season rolls around again I’ll be doing more here. 🙂

Seatac and Boeing came close, looks like.

It’s been ripping pretty decently here, but nothing too bad. Probably not advisory criteria, but some areas have definitely gotten close. West winds beginning to ramp up in the strait now.

Woodinville, but picking up. Gusts maybe in the 10-20 range for now. Not hearing my wind chimes yet, it takes a decent gust for those to go, they’re pretty big. Camano clocked a 50mph gust earlier this hour.

The hail quickly changed back to heavy rain, and then it was over as quick as it began.

A windstorm after the snowstorm would not be good. Breezy I can deal with, high winds, not so much. My trees took a beating from the heavy snow.

I may have to wait until I empty some of the hard drive on my computer. I have 25,000 RAW photo files on here, which are massive. I need to get an external hard drive, but need to wait until I can fit it into the budget. But once I have more space on my computer, I’ll totally do it.

SEA NWS has flood advisories up for south king county, pierce and thurston I believe. Gonna be a challenge with all that snowfall down there. Skokomish River also has a flood advisory up, and there is concern on a few other rivers as well. I think central king county northward might see some minor urban…[Read more]

Haha. So basically you’re trying to code your own forecast models, is that what I’m gathering from this? If so, that’s super cool! I have no idea how to do that, but I’d gladly help anywhere I can, and I’d be happy to study up.

My name is Brie Hawkins, and I’ve loved weather for as long as I can remember. The Hannukah Eve storm in 2006 was what really put it into motion however, and since then I’ve been self teaching as much as I can about atmospheric sciences. Eventually I hope to…[Read more]
