Tuesday, January 17, 2012 10:05 P.M. So, the latest model runs have come in, and they are moving the storm even further south. For snow lovers who live in Seattle, this is bad news. However, I’ve been watching the radar, and I believe that we will see more snow than is currently forecast by the […]
Small Changes, Big Effects
Tuesday, January 17, 2012 11:39 A.M. Valid 04:00 pm PST Wed, 18 Jan 2012 – 36hr Fcst – UW 4km 12z WRF-GFS 24-hour snowfall As I was looking over the models and the spread in forecasts being made by different people and organizations, I was thinking about some changes that should be implemented in UWs […]
I’m Losing Sleep…
Monday, January 16, 2012 1:03 P.M. I’ve tried to be as objective as possible with these forecasts, because while Seattle freaks out over the “s” word, it needs to be made clear to the public that there are drastically different types of snow events in Washington and not all of them are serious. Now, it […]
The Spiel on Snow After the Spiel on Snow
Sunday, January 15, 2012 9:47 P.M. I gave a schpeal on snow this morning, and now it’s time I give another one. Many places around Seattle saw significant accumulations today while other places saw very little snow. My brother reports that my house down by Lake Washington between the floating bridges got 4 inches today, but […]
The Spiel on Snow
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 […]
LAWES 2.1
Wednesday, January 11, 2012 11:14 A.M. I don’t have too much time here, but I thought I’d give you an update on the forecast for this weekend and beyond. It seems as though most forecasters are much more conservative as far as snow goes. In fact, here’s what the KOMO forecast had to say this […]
Sea-Level Snow Looking Pretty Likely
Tuesday, January 10, 201212:48 P.M. Photo Credit: Alistair Grant I’m actually taking a class that discusses the current weather over the world once every week, so I thought I’d go ahead and post my notes on my blog! Of course, it will be more of a summary/story of my notes, because my notes are pretty […]
Inconsistencies in the Models
Monday, January 9, 2011 11:06 A.M. As I sit in the Ocean Sciences building waiting for my “Climatic Extremes” class, I can’t help but wish for more exciting weather around here. Thankfully, some of the models are giving me some hope that we could see change, but other models give us weather that is even […]
My Weather Station!
Thursday, January 5, 2011 9:38 A.M. I hate to say it, but the weather so far this year has been incredibly boring. Sure, we’ve had a couple rain events here and there, and we did have a windstorm on Christmas Day, but for the most part, even thinking about the weather around here has […]
