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 […]
Wet and Warm
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 […]
Wet but Calm
November 25, 2009 5:35 P.M. Hey guys! Thanksgiving is less than a day away! I am soooooooo excited. Man… I haven’t tasted that creamy mash potatoes that melt in your mouth infused with a concoction of gravy and stuffing for over a year. And the turkey… I just took a look at it. It’s huge. […]
Woohoo!
November 15, 2009 6:01 P.M. I’ve been having a lot of trouble getting homework accomplished today and focusing in general because I’ve had my eyes on two things. And they are both weather related (of course). First of all, remember how I was talking about how if you brought that band of rain that was […]
Updated Pineapple Express Forecast + Snow to Surprisingly Low Elevations
November 14, 2009 9:54 A.M. In a previous post I mentioned the possibility for snow at some of the higher elevations. And guess what? We saw some! Look at this picture from North Bend by Kathy Hyland from KOMO4 News. North Bend is at an elevation of approximately 1,000 feet, and they saw sticking snow. […]
Flooding Next Week?
November 10, 2009 9:53 P.M. November is a unique month in that the weather changes very rapidly throughout the course of it. The beginning of November is not notoriously stormy; yes, it is usually moderately wet, but there are stormier periods of the year. By the end of November, though, we have reached the stormiest […]
Flooding Thursday into Friday
October 27, 2009 3:07 P.M. I hinted at flooding at the middle of this week in one of my posts last week. Then, that same storm transitioned from a minor windstorm to a major windstorm with heavy rain and flooding to practically nothing. Now, we are back with the idea of flooding, with some wind […]
Flooding?
October 21, 2009 3:38 P.M. Looking at the weather models this afternoon, I noticed that we could see our first flooding event of the season next week if the situation shown by the models comes true. Let’s take a look at the furthest time frame the extended WRF-GFS model from the UW goes out. This […]
