It's coming right out of Canada. -30ºC this morning and looking to be even colder on the weekend. At least we don't have the snow that we did last year. It takes a village to raise an idiot.

When the lows in Siberia are in the east, the jet stream is pushed up into the Arctic before plunging down through mid-Canada and thence into mid-USA. The normal oscillation of that Siberian low moves it a thousand miles east and west. When it's towards the west, the storm track also shifts west, bringing winter storms down from the Aleutians right down the west coast and through the Rockies. This year, the damn thing has been "stuck" to the east, near the Kamchatka peninsula. So all the storms have tracked to OUR east, as well. Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

Local forecasters are predicting that we could break some record lows overnight. I sent one of my plumbers to a new construction site this AM, but it was just too cold for the materials. Too much risk of splitting and cracking. 4 out of 5 Great Lakes prefer Michigan.

Its on track to be the coldest and the most snow in February since they been keeping records! I got over 3 feet of snow on my property right now, I expect that there will be another foot added to that before spring breaks and we start to see a warming trend!

Forecast high 32 tomorrow, -2 for Sunday, then 24 for Monday. Harbinger of spring when patterns here start shifting like that. For North America the patterns have been unusual this year but hoping the yo-yo-ing still foretells spring. The key elements in human thinking are not numbers but labels of fuzzy sets. -- L.

1minute Campfire Ranger Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 29,895 Likes: 8 Burns/Hines, Oregon, USA	Jan 31, 2013 a buddy called with a desire to head out for some steelhead fly angling on New Years days. It was -32F and it felt much warmer if one stayed chest deep in the river fighting off rig-sized ice paddies. We did not catch anything. With my first exposure to the NW in the mid 60's, I saw people wading the Skagit River in Wa with snow over the entire landscape in December. I speculated at the time that they must be crazy and nothing was worth that experience. I've now confirmed that. This year we are having absolute beach weather here in the PNW. I really wish it would snow and rain. Last edited by 1minute; 02/19/15. 1Minute

Fortunately about 6-7 cottontails are keeping the grass mowed. It's been the warmest winter on record so far here, and one of the driest.
