It’s Been a Wet Fall
Very rainy last three months of 2015.

Yes! A Strange Weather Year
Summary in today’s Seattle Times confirms it’s been a strange weather year. Certainly it’s been abnormally warm:

It Has Been Very Rainy
I see that since November 1st, rainfall total has been 18.43 inches; the second heaviest rainfall for that period ever.
Snow Glow

After a couple of hours of heavy, wet snow tree branches are sagging low to the ground. With the Christmas lights in front of the house, it made for a pleasing vista through the living room window.

Snowy Mt. Rainier
These kinds of numbers always impress me:

Nine feet! The Weather Service also noted that Mt. Rainer will be colder (-18 degrees) tonight than the South Pole.
Snow on Mt Si
I couldn’t tell yesterday if the snow level was low enough to get to the peak of Mt. Si but it sure did this morning. The official low here was 43 degrees and Mt Si had a clear dusting well below its 4167-foot top.
It’s that Time of the Year: First Snow on the Mountain
The higher elevations have had several snowy days but this morning we got our first glimpse of white in the foothills, at about 3,000 feet I think (although the Weather Service says 4,000).
