11PM Welp, the most recent European model run has stuck to its guns and brings the low further north than other models. This run brings a 53mph gust to SeaTac and a 52mph gust to Boeing Field near downtown Seattle. Also brings a 63mph gust into the north end of the Long Beach Peninsula. If this verifies, there will definitely be power outages and tree damage. Although this model is the king, hopefully it is incorrect. We are planning to do an early morning forecast video, and then we will do a live chase near Seattle if this continues to trend. To watch our most recent forecast video, follow the link. This was filmed before the 0z European run.

Here are a few photos I took in Snohomish, Wa today as the Snohomish River crested just below moderate flood stage. This was around 7 feet lower than the peak of the flood back in December.

I was thinking about heading out for one more snow chase tonight. But, we’ve been grinding hard this week and I need a good night of sleep. Gotta accept my limits. Sorry everyone, but thanks for riding along the last few days! 03-13-26

❄️ I’m eyeballing a pattern that finally has the potential to deliver some substantial mountain snow to Washington state. It is still a ways out, but data has been trending positively toward a snowy pattern for the mountains starting Sunday Night-Monday March 8-9th. It is far enough out that there is still time for it to trend better or worse. I am encouraged that the models have been holding pretty steadfast so far though.

Before that timeframe though, the mountains will get a little snow tomorrow on Wednesday through Thursday, March 4-5th. There will then be some weak systems Friday through Saturday that will bring some light lowland rain and light mountain snow as well.

Long story short though, I’m more interested in what I’m seeing early next week. If you are a skier or snowboarder or just want our snowpack to improve for summer, start doing your snow dance!! As of now I am planning on doing a snow chase and associated livestream in Monday with how things are looking. The pattern may stay active beyond Monday March 9th, but that timeframe is a bit too far out to have high confidence in what will happen. Stay tuned!

Had a successful northern lights chase January 19-20! I’ve got some time lapse material that I plan to put together from this.

Go hawks! Currently I’m working on putting together a bit more of a long for video using a lot of the extra flooding footage I captured. I could just upload it all as one big b-roll clip, but I think I want to put some more work into it instead. This channel will primarily be used for livestreaming storms in Washington state and occasionally elsewhere. When there’s is really interesting weather on the horizon, I will do forecast style videos. When we get into quiet times, similar to now, I will work on doing recaps of storms I’ve chased. Let me know if any of you have any feedback or suggestions. Thanks everyone!
