The problem was many cars were trying to do 60+ mph in the slush there were several accidents, they had to close the road to clear all the accidents and the closure created a big backup where it took 1 hour to go 3 or 4 miles. I'm not kidding when I say Seattle drivers are some of the worst drivers I have ever seen and I've lived in a few different parts of the country. Thanks for the forecast it does look promising for a big snow event. I was hiking by Quincy and it was sunny and cool its remarkable how big a difference the rainshadow can make.

I live in kitsap county and at times we have are little micro climate over here that is totally different dynamics than Seattle and surrounding foothills. I also enjoy looking at your UW charts and learning more about what the picture is telling us. Thank you again, Matty Jack!

Maybe need something like a VU meter.<br />On the issue of no data void in the Pacific: How do you reconcile that with calling for additional Doppler radar for the Oregon coast? You've mentioned this several times in previous columns.

This suggestion, should it come to pass, would create an interesting traffic flow on I-5 in the late afternoon. Some of us have that memory of driving on I-5 (1990?) when all hell froze and BMW's were abandoned in the fast lane. I'm assuming there is little chance of that, however. My wife and I have our second vaccine Friday afternoon and will be hightailing it north to South Whidbey Island in case there is a convergence zone event. kevinlynch1https://www.blogger.com/profile/11900427711172659276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-83117428229841359982021-02-06T09:54:43.295-08:002021-02-06T09:54:43.295-08:00PRUDICT THA SNOW!!!!

I have to adjust the volume a few times.<br /> It was something that happened to me as a community radio station announcer years ago. I had to watch the dial closely. <br /> Thanks!Rowan Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06835515792500862373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-61269274469675639222021-02-05T22:33:08.495-08:002021-02-05T22:33:08.495-08:00Yeah,it flip flops daily.Good sci-fi;about a week ...Yeah,it flip flops daily.Good sci-fi;about a week ago the 00Z run had a cold upper low in the 510s HPa range stalled over W.Wash for about 3-4 days around Feb 10-14.❄😂❄Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03855312259314603071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-8289285535507733552021-02-05T18:50:23.319-08:002021-02-05T18:50:23.319-08:00LOL at the 18z GFS.

I live on southeastern Vancouver Island and the situation you described with a northeasterly flow is the time where I start watching (and hoping) for sea-effect snow. Fingers crossed.

I really enjoy your blogs and podcasts, and value your in-depth forecasts, and the interesting weather topics you discuss each week. That said, I'm sure I'm not the only listener from SW British Columbia that would love to hear more detail on the weather forecast up this way if you can squeeze it in. I have yet to find any bloggers/podcasters that focus specifically on SW BC, though your broadcasts do largely fill in the gap for folks in BC like me who like to have a more detailed explanation of upcoming weather.Sea Dream of Clyde's Adventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13105964910920543582noreply@blogger.com
