I love a day off from school for “Tulip Day!” Great report, and crazy that there was snow on Saturday at Pine Hills. You gotta love crazy spring weather!

Thanks for this–from the Ruskin-quoting high-schooler who’s become a true weather pro!

Fabulous post Charlie. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. The more people talk about what needs to be done, maybe the easier it will be to get through it! I hope!

I am sure you would like to get out to Crown Point today!

Awoke to a surprisingly brisk wind and heavy rain on Whidbey Island, WA, this morning. Hope summer comes back for one more command performance!

Thanks for this, Charlie!

Snowing lightly here in Madrona, Seattle, Charlie, but not sticking so much–at least not yet. As much as I would like another huge dump of snow, it’ll be good when life returns to normal too!

Still many area customers without power this morning. Thanks for the summary (and the photo credits!).

I am bowled over by your photographs and stories! Nature’s power is both beautiful and humbling, and you’ve captured it magnificently! Keep having fun, stay safe, and keep posting!

As the Irish say: May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your side. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your car until you capture an awesome view of one of nature’s most terrific shows! Be safe and have fun!

Glad to see you back online. I may have to call in sick on Monday!

Love your post and your enthusiam! Charlie, you are the Cisco Morris of PNW weather forecasts!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your awesome experience and putting to words the feelings we all shared. What a great day!

Thanks Charlie! Any update on the columnar cloud numbers or on coastal cloud cover more generally?

Seattle Times today also says rain is unlikely “Little chance dry days to end soon,” although a possibility on Sunday. Was interested to see that the record low was 47 in 1974. I was working as a camp counselor in the Cascades that summer, and I remember pulling out some long underwear. Hard to imagine today!

Fabulous narrative and beautiful photos. Keep up the great reporting and stay safe!

This explanation is a little above my pay grade, but I got some interesting tidbits out of it. Thanks!

This is really interesting! Thanks for sharing! Who knew a balloon could get that high in the atmosphere?! (OK, “who knew health care could be so complicated”–I get it!)
