[SnowtoRain]

1.45" event total 

[katabatic]

Relatively paltry 0.19" although I'm hoping to double that amount with the upslope tomorrow. 

[Terpeast]

Finished with 1.14”, first time in many months I’ve had a 1”+ event

.54” here. 

 

[RDM]

.89" here.  A nice soaker, which we needed.  Only wish it was white...  Just 10 degree cooler with some upper level cold...   sigh. 

[Terpeast]

Also didn’t break 50 today. Yesterday was 53. Was supposed to be the warmest days in the 60s in this January thaw.

         It definitely looked in forecasts from early this week that today would be a taste of spring, but that idea disappeared by midweek.

Looks like its pretty much done other than some scattered brief showers.

My sump pump kicked on for the first time since July. Nice to know we can still rain.

Heck of a way to run a winter in these parts. Blech.

Squalls/gusty showers look fairly decent tonight on guidance… thread in the morning? Anyone? Bueller?

NAM is insistent on snow squalls even into the immediate suburbs.

        I'm still very interested in tomorrow, but the simulated reflectivities all suggest very scattered activity.    Should be fun for those who get under one of those heavy showers, and we'll need that intense omega-driven cooling to combat fairly warm low levels.   The simulated reflectivities show rain except for right under the most intense cores.

Columbia imby 1.11” Jan 9-10.

Temps - after around 5 straight days/nights above freezing - have finally lowered enough to turn the Wisp snow guns on. Workers were struggling to keep enough snow at the lift exit areas the last few days, but overall managed to keep things going quite nicely while they saw lots of melting. Fortunately that period is behind us. Today's squall parameters and overall setup calls for a 3-6 from NWS, but the setup, imo, is more marginal with just a few inches outside of the most favored areas. Regardless, better than the 59 and high humidity I saw two days ago. Hope I am wrong about accums because we desperately need it (for legit purposes as well as my own grumpiness for April-esque mud everywhere).

1.64" total. A bit more rain than I expected overnight.

[Paleocene]

i share the sentiments from the notes by my nearest cocorahs reporter.

1.67", went outside this morning to let the dog out in rain and sleet
