Weak storm coming
Thursday, April 1, 2010 12:05 A.M. So there’s a weak storm coming in later today. Not much to talk about. APRIL FOOLS!!!

Another Big Storm and Tons of Snow in the Mountains
Sunday, March 28, 2010 9:23 P.M. Hey all, I’m sorry I haven’t updated in so long. Junior year man… if you are an underclassman, get ready for it. It’s intense. And the fact that I want to be successful in life is what is keeping me bogged down with work and causing me stress. I […]

Return to a Rainier Pattern
Monday, February 22, 20109:10 P.M. It’s completely my fault that I haven’t made an update lately. The weather has just been too gosh darn boring. I believe I mentioned in an earlier post that I hate El Nino winters. Well I do have some good news for those who are with me on that. El […]
More on the Misconceptions of Global Warming
More on the Misconceptions of Global Warming Friday, February 5, 2010 10:53 P.M. There’s really not much to talk about as far as weather goes. More of the same boring stuff. There is only ONE reason I like El Nino. That reason is that it often results in good tuna fishing off of our coast […]

Sunday, January 31, 2010 11:58 A.M. Wow. It has been a long time since I last posted something. I’ve been very busy with finals and studying. Now though, I hope I’ll have a bit more free time. Right now we are stuck in a pattern of storms coming to our south and us getting the […]
More severe weather down south, calm up north
January 19, 2010 5:51 P.M. Hey guys. So as I’m sure you noticed, we were very warm today. The high at Komo’s downtown TV station was 60 today, and the low was a balmy 52. Even though the jet stream has gone to our south, we are still under the influence of a warm, moist […]

Tuesday, January 12, 2010 3:37 P.M. Hey everybody. Just a brief update now… I have to catch the bus soon… but we saw some pretty heavy rain amounts here as a Pineapple Express was stalled over the area. Amounts of an inch, higher south, were common in the Puget Sound area, while places in the […]
