smokeybandit Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I'm all for a massive storm to end the season. Got an inch of rain so far today, much needed. Might get some accumulating snow overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 About 2 inches of snow up here, following the changeover that happened around 630pm. New WWA for 4-7 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I had the temps for snow, just ran out of moisture. Only a coating once it changed over. This coming weekend is still looking interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Ended up at 5 inches of cement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gallopinggertie Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Had a nice cold core thunderstorm yesterday in Portland. It poured rain and small hail with some gusty winds and a loud clap of thunder. The NWS put out a special weather statement for it, which was like a consolation prize for the severe thunderstorm watch last week that turned out to be a nothing burger.

Will we get more this week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Just goes to show how far away the models are from anything out more than a couple days. That big snowstorm, still showing big numbers even last weekend, looks like just some nuisance snow showers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 so you guys were trying to highlight this? low topped rotating cell, while it is snowing in Denver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Yes, that cell that threaded the Elizabeth/Kiowa needle. That's by far the most thunder I've ever heard with snow. I ended up with nearly 2" from the afternoon stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayjawintastawm Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 Seems like Elbert County causes practically anything that goes through there to rotate. Must be a great big hidden fan or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend once proposed setting up a myriad of large concrete structures at the OH/IN border, possibly with spiral structure, to make tornadoes lose their spin as they cross into Ohio. New Mexico is expected to get up to 5.5" of snow in lower elevations in the plains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could attract tourists from as far away as... Colorado. Driven that a bunch of times, and by that stage, anything is worth stopping for.

Chinook Posted Friday at 04:47 PM Share Posted Friday at 04:47 PM The end of winter. The snow-water equivalent is now going down for almost all areas. Who got the best snow? This plot doesn't say, but it implies there was a big north/south divide around the CO/NM border. La Nina winters typically don't have too much precip for AZ/NM. And of course, intense dryness preceded the Los Angeles fires, which was kind of like a hurricane worth of damage there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted Saturday at 04:07 PM Share Posted Saturday at 04:07 PM I was going to say that I haven't seen 77 this early in Wyoming, but I guess the record of 80 is from two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayjawintastawm Posted 15 hours ago Author Share Posted 15 hours ago Got 0.1 inches of snow last night, total 2.1" in April. Lots of chilly blossoms on the trees, but it didn't get super cold (low of 30 here) so things should be OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
