Sunday, January 15, 2011 10:02 A.M. I-5 by Northgate, Washington on Sunday morning – KOMO News First off, I’d like to apologize for not posting a blog update yesterday. I was doing tons of math homework and review, because after jumping into Calculus 125 at the University of Washington, I’ve discovered that I have a […]
Revised LAWES Scale
Friday, January 13, 2012 3:11 P.M. Don’t judge me… this is the most relevant picture I could find. I first invented my LAWES scale in November of 2010. It has been hailed as one of the most innovative weather scales of the 21st century by the followers of this blog ever since, but I have […]
What a Convergence Zone!
Monday, November 28, 2011 4:22 P.M. 05:31 pm PST Sun 27 Nov 2011 Sorry for the lack of posts over the Thanksgiving weekend, I was at home and the internet there is dreadfully slow… so slow that it is impractical to use.

This convergence zone brought tons of snow to the central slopes of the Cascades, […]
Yesterday’s Weather, Turning Colder
Saturday, November 11, 2011 1:59 P.M. Before I elaborate on what I think the weather will be like, I’d like to point out the strength of the front we saw yesterday. Yesterday’s front wasn’t big and didn’t produce a whole bunch of rain, but it was strong and consolidated, and it really packed quite a […]
A Rather Cool and Unsettled Pattern
Friday, May 27, 2011 10:16 A.M. First off, as an addition to my last blog post, I thought I’d mention that Seattle gets tornadoes too, but they are very weak and are not part of supercell thunderstorms. Instead, they are called “cold-core” funnel clouds and come from localized areas of circulation within a thunderstorm. I […]

Wednesday February 23, 2011 11:15 A.M. Hey everybody! Just a quick morning update. It still looks like some places are gonna see six inches of snow, except the band has shifted a little northward into Snohomish county. Seattle still looks to receive at least three inches or so. We won’t really know until later this […]

I don’t know if I’ve ever told you, but I hate rumors. But not weather rumors! Weather rumors create an exciting atmosphere (there’s a […]
