Wednesday, March 28, 2012 10:53 A.M. Photo Credit: Jenni Whalen So, I was talking a peek at the weather models this morning, and unfortunately, this morning’s runs look even wetter than before! I’m not complaining, as this will be great for our mountain snowpack, but it is sure to be an inconvenience for many around here. […]
Entering a Period of Stormy Weather
Tuesday, March 27, 2011 6:31 P.M. Today, I was woken up my multiple birds chirping right at my window. It was wonderful, and even though they woke me up way too early (my first class is at 11:30 on Tuesdays), I really appreciated them. I even personally thanked the birds, but seeing as it was […]

Monday, March 26, 2012 10:34 A.M. UW Quad: 3/22/2012 UW Quad: 3/24/2012 Both of these photos were taken from http://seattlejapanesegardencommunityblog.blogspot.com/. It’s a new quarter at UW.

Monday, March 12, 2012 1:26 P.M. Hi everybody, I recently finished writing a short essay about extreme weather events due to global warming, so I thought I’d post it here.

Valentine’s Day Forecast

Snow Update
Thursday, January 19, 5:20 P.M. Hi everybody, this is just a quick update… the snow has stuck around longer than forecast, and freezing rain has mainly impacted areas south of Seattle, sparing the Seattle area itself. The snow has been going on all day here, and I’d say UW got about 2 inches out of […]
Ice Storm Warning
Thursday, January 19, 2012 11:06 A.M. As if snow wasn’t bad enough… After the major snowstorm yesterday, another storm was forecast, but precipitation was only supposed to make it to Olympia. The models turned out being wrong with this storm, and precipitation is located all the way to the eastern entrance to the Strait of […]
