Got about three inches of snow on the ground here. 27°F Mt. Baker is showing 10"
Wind has been quiet through the night but there is still a gale warning until 4PM today.
Out for coffee and back home to work on the media computer.
Cliff Mass points to another - potentially larger - snowfall in a few days:
Snow Post Mortem and a View to the Next Snowstorm
Well, reality can be sobering. The western Washington snow event is nearly over now...and yes, the models generally underpredicted the snow totals--particularly several days out. But let's look more closely.
The National Weather Service has a constantly updated snow total map (see below) that shows how variable the snow was. Around 2 inches on Bainbridge and near Tacoma, but 2-5 inches in Seattle (I had 4 inches in northeast Seattle). But amounts increased to the east and north, with around 6 inches in Bellevue and Everett, and even more near the Cascade foothills.
Doing my happy dance - NOT!
