Here is my weekly weather quiz question. What is “Zero Datum?”
The Jet Stream is still pushing fronts our way and sending plenty of moisture to the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 1-3 show a frontal system that moved in and the next one in line. The graphics for days 3-7 Saturday through Wednesday show more frontal activity continuing through the period.

The Jet Stream is sending an Atmospheric River full of moisture south of the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 1-3 show a frontal system offshore Tuesday. The graphics for days 3-7 Wednesday through Sunday show more frontal activity continuing through the period.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question. What is “Yellow Snow “? (No it’s not that!)
The Jet Stream is sending an Atmospheric River full of moisture from over the Pacific Ocean right into the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 1-3 show a frontal system moving through Oregon between tonight and Saturday. The graphics for days 3-7 Monday through Friday show the parade of frontal activity continuing Wednesday through Friday.
