It sounds like the perfect time for me to curl up next to the fire, and listen to my favorite <a href="http://www.thedigitalbridges.com/the-beginners-guide-to-radio-broadcasting/" rel="nofollow">radio broadcast</a> show, with a hot chocolate. For anyone who loves the cold and snow, this is our time to enjoy it while it lasts!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16949982896628690168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-59275222157949415662018-02-11T20:26:53.119-08:002018-02-11T20:26:53.119-08:00Still waiting for the Sunday post for the thrillin...Still waiting for the Sunday post for the thrilling epic conclusion...Qwertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00429690391444840673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-91830723878934722622018-02-10T09:01:22.447-08:002018-02-10T09:01:22.447-08:00Very well said!

That accumulated severe winter weather index has us ranked #1 mild non winter ever recorded. Which I swear must break the winter of 3 yrs ago. The leeward slopes are really suffering from lack of snow with brown hills up over 5000 ft. <br /><br />While Seattle and northern Washington has had the grace of precip and some snow due to a northern storm track, it quickly becomes dire further south. Water for irrigation won't be a problem but we'll suffer a lack of spring runoff for green hillsides and wildflowers.Buddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13773392812050013355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-36747098579767165902018-02-09T22:36:00.090-08:002018-02-09T22:36:00.090-08:00But: Last year, according to NOAA, we had weak, sh...But: Last year, according to NOAA, we had weak, short-lived La Nina conditions.<br /><br />https://www.climate.gov/news-features/blogs/enso/february-2017-enso-update-bye-bye-la-ni%C3%B1a<br />Rebecca Timsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11893945762947495364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-14372708601258756462018-02-09T18:33:31.709-08:002018-02-09T18:33:31.709-08:00Super Bowl of Winter Weather final score:

Fair to say the ridge was the MVP.<br /><br />La Nina really only gets a participation trophy this winter. A winter that probably turned the corner 2-3 weeks ago. However there were some notable moments. Particular plays were the White Christmas Fake and Inverse Rain Shadow Conversion. There still might be some controversial tape to review in retrospect if a flag gets thrown on a March snow or wind event. <br /><br />Otherwise, time to get busy on overdue spring training chores and shop for a split ductless AC system for the stadium. <br /><br />Summer is the next big game!BAMCIShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285865892838328830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-45764481470858027842018-02-09T14:13:13.100-08:002018-02-09T14:13:13.100-08:00Seems like you are REALLY trying hard to prove the...Seems like you are REALLY trying hard to prove their is correlation between colder ocean temps in the fall and a colder/wetter winter in the PNW. Last year was not a La Nina year and it was the coldest and snowiest winter I have ever seen. This year is a La Nina year and every time we see a little cold (usually preceded and followed by a pineapple), you are quick to remind us of La Nina. If this is a La Nina year, this skier likes weak El Ninos better... DJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07176249640165096143noreply@blogger.com
