I have a young group of weather forecasters from the Northwest opening up a page on facebook. I'd appreciate if you guys could take a look http://www.facebook.com/pages/AnalystWxCast-Pacific-Northwest/161174760601863<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />AndrewFoot's Forecast Northeast PAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01991864046660247431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-25153168503305279172011-02-03T14:07:18.922-08:002011-02-03T14:07:18.922-08:00I saw this and I thought you'd want to see it,...I saw this and I thought you'd want to see it, a reader has a question for you about clouds in Bremerton.<br /><br />http://www.flickr.com/photos/mtngrl/5414315536/dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058027582990678467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-72500480545042400022011-02-03T13:40:41.096-08:002011-02-03T13:40:41.096-08:00But some of us want at least some semblance of a m...But some of us want at least some semblance of a more typical La Nina winter here in the Pacific NW, bhd. And the latest 8-14 day outlook (http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/814day/) suggests a significant pattern shift happening around next weekend or so, with forecast confidence being "above average." I've gotta think that one of these times these longer range forecasts are really going to pan out for us . . .Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06672849934921996050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-45988727691851645702011-02-03T10:23:37.026-08:002011-02-03T10:23:37.026-08:00I love that video with the reporter.

Is this what people mean by the longwave pattern? Is there good reason to hope that this is really going to come about by the end of next week after one more ridge?

For example, how does it compare to the difference in pressures inside and outside an average balloon? The pressure difference experienced in going up a chair lift 1000 feet? Swimming down three feet? Puffing out your cheeks? Blowing out a candle?<br />Thanks!Michael Dempsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05189703904171622581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-48236564212371092752011-02-03T00:46:15.986-08:002011-02-03T00:46:15.986-08:00Yea that video shows how bad it can get in the Gor...Yea that video shows how bad it can get in the Gorge - all that sun!! Thanks for bringing the improving weather tomorrow through the weekend, but sorry to hear about yet another ridge next week. Is sun becoming much more common in the winters here, or does it just seem that way?<br /><br />When you get some time, are you able to explain the spike in temperature at the airport at 3pm today? Does it have anything to do with the light westerly breeze from the Sound at the same time? It went from 47 at 2pm to 58 at 3pm back to 45 at 4pm.Wx Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11676337731061824294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-35971468956619374392011-02-02T21:34:16.347-08:002011-02-02T21:34:16.347-08:00Nothing but that irritating sunshine?
