Snow Events

A little update on the weather out here. Late last week we had a light dusting of snow. This week we had snow on Christmas day. Only a trace amount. Not enough to classify as a white Christmas. National Weather Service states that at least 1 inch of accumulation is required to qualify. However at that, snow fall on Christmas is just as rare here anyway. I came home from work tonight at about 5pm to find 1 inch of snow on the ground. The National Weather Service has issued a Snow advisory for all of the Puget Sound lowlands Tomorrow (Thursday) last I read snow starting with a mix of rain Thursday morning should turn all to snow and leave 1-3 inches of snow on the ground through out the day. It also calls for drying down slope winds near the Cascade foot hills to cause a "drying" effect and cause less accumulation there in towns such as Gold Bar. We shall see...

Current Temp: 32.2ºF
Humidity: 98%
Wind: Calm
Current weather: mostly cloudy

Sorry, I don't have the highs and lows right now, during maintence on the weather station I accidently broke the communication between the array and the base unit. I have fixed it this evening. I should have the station online updating every 5 minutes once again here in a day or two. As a gift I was given a purchase of the weather software, I am just waiting on the company to provide the registration code now. I shall report again tomorrow evening should significant weather occure as forcast.

I measured several different spots in the area and the current snow depth is between 9.5 and 12 inches.
