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 North Cascades to Mt. Bachelor in Central Oregon, opened for limited operations last week. I haven’t […]
Sunday, March 2, 2014 5:55 p.m. And the hits just keep on coming. After our not-so-close brush with snow (it’s easy to get excited looking at models beforehand, but when push comes to shove, this is Seattle, and we live right next to Puget Sound and the Pacific Ocean and are protected from cold air […]
Tuesday, November 13, 2012 7:05 P.M. Hey everybody! I hope everybody had a nice Veteran’s Day weekend. I didn’t do much… besides sleeping of course. Funny story actually… I was going to bed last night (at my house) and our dog was already asleep on my bed. I tried to move him… but that guy […]

Wednesday, October 19, 2011 5:41 P.M. Yesterday, I wrote about the variability of autumn weather in the Pacific Northwest and how we can see big changes in short periods of time. Today, we didn’t see a monumental change in the weather, but it definitely wasn’t like yesterday. As I was walking back from the IMA […]
Wednesday, September 14, 2011 6:38 P.M. Hi everybody! I slacked off on writing my weather blog this summer, but now I am back and I will resume a regular schedule. Thank you Nicholas Efthimiadis for the friendly reminder to stop being so lazy! In all honesty though, there wasn’t much to write home about this […]
October 17, 2010 Hey everybody, thanks for continuing to read my blog, it means a lot. I know I’ve not been writing for a while, that generally means I just have a bunch of homework to do, as was the case this past week. I still have a ton of homework to do, but I […]
