Increase the chance of Puget Sound Snow
There are some situations that local meteorologists are really worried about: when both temperature and precipitation are about to snow.
And the situation tomorrow and early Tuesday is like that …. on the brink.
The latest run of the UW WRF model is painting a more snowy picture over the western lowlandsas illustrated by total snowfall through 10 a.m. Tuesday (below).
Several inches above the north and south Puget Sound. General snow on SW Oregon and Portland. Snow loading on the Cascades.
The latest NOAA/National Weather Service HRRR model forecast has mostly snow in the lowlands north of Seattle (see below).
I should note that there is a lot of uncertainty regarding Puget Sound snow.
In my podcast today, I talk about this situation and describe the complexity of this snowfall event. The “inner baseball” of the western snow, including the rain ball, the convergence zone, and the sea influence.
