I just got some of my pics from monday night on to the computer from when it snowed... The flash on the camera didn't work when i took the pictures so only 1 really SORT of turned out... Here are 2 that were ok...

This second picture is a slushball I made out of the 1/4 inch that fell on top of the car... This ball was made a few hours after the snow had stopped so it had melted a little despite the temperature only being around 33-34*F.

Be back later!

Justin, Justin!! If you were a weather spotter, you would be wise to call that into the Seattle NWS....or Portland NWS if not able to get a hold of Seattle in which they would send your info too Seattle.

It looks like port angeles and surrounding areas there are getting slammed... Looks like some time of convergence or something because the cell isn't even moving.

0.72"/hour in Covington now! AMAZING!

The sky to the south and east is almost pitch black now! Woo-hoo!

Covington is up to .72"/hr and the temperature has dived down drastically. I am just on the outer edge and am only getting moderate rain.

0.84"/hour now, check WeatherBug's Covington station.

Slowly moving my way. When my Dad gets home we may go for a little drive! :grrr:

I wonder where snow_wizzard is, he should be getting hammered.

Probably jumping up and down and taking pictures. That or his power went out due to the very gusty winds occuring at the moment.

The whole sky is almost all dark grey. I am taking tons of pictures and the rain hasn't even started yet. The darker clouds are moving my way though! 8-)

Man that's awesome... He must be in heaven right now... Not to try to show you up or anything TT but if i can remember right, a couple of days ago it was you who said nothing ever exciting happens in Covington... Well it looks like they are getting HAMMERED RIGHT NOW... it isnt the first time in the last couple days either. I wonder what the temperature is there now? Probably getting hail and snow pelets with the heavy rain too.

W13 · #4471 Postby **W13** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 8:04 pm

43 F and falling in Covington ... they were at 56 F when this all started.

Rain is starting up here right now, moderately heavy at the moment.

Ravensdale must really be getting pounded too. :eek:

Great pics by the way Brennan.

W13 · #4473 Postby **W13** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 8:07 pm

Currently 42 F and continuing to drop here on the East Hill of Kent.

W13 · #4474 Postby **W13** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 8:16 pm

It looks like we were just a little too far west for this one, although we are getting moderately heavy rain and breezy winds at the moment.

I can't wait until snow_wizzard tells his story of what happened in Covington.

andrewr · #4475 Postby **andrewr** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 8:17 pm

I was too far south and east. I got a little bit of rain, but definitely not even close to what Covington got.

Look out Andy, the cells are headed in your direction!

Yep, Covington absoutely got nailed! Still raining pretty heavy over there right now. :eek:

Brennan... I did not say they NEVER get exciting weather in Covington. I said its the "exception to the rule".

Big difference.

The system is FINALLY moving east and shrinking the rain shadow. Interesting day with slow moving storms.

Justin...Thanks for the heads up!! Brennan...good pics!
PS to all: Just got my SkyWarn Certification in the mail this afternoon and along with my spotter number. My spotter number is King-142

W13 - those cells are not headed toward Andy in Woodinvile.

They are actually headed toward North Bend but it looks like they are weakening with the loss of dayitme heating. Had two rumbles of thunder here and some very light rain.

We had a high of 60 degrees here today.
