Photos are not mine... City of Duvall has closed McCormick Park Indefinetly due to erosion happening. Trails run near the embankment of the river. Repairs will likely be needed before the park can be reopened safely to the public. #wawx

From WSDOT East on X: “US 2 Stevens Pass is now closed between milepost 55 and 85 because our plows are not able to clear the road due to illegally parked vehicles at the summit. If you have selfishly chosen to block our crews and first responders, come move your car off the highway.” 🙄 #wawx

Simply amazing snowy views this morning by Skykomish, WA after back to back Puget Sound Convergence Zone snow events! ❄️ #wawx #snow

The fire at Glasgow central station is utterly devastating. Shops, homes and our transport link to England are being wiped out. I am amazed by the limited news coverage.

This is horrific

The floor rolled. Like waves.

🔵🟢 2014 vs 2026 🟢🔵 For the Super Bowl XLVIII victory parade, #Seattle was in an arctic airmass (left), with feels-like temperatures in the low 20s!! On Wednesday, for the Super Bowl LX victory parade (right), it'll be sunny & in the low-mid 40s! Enjoy & Go #Seahawks! #wawx

Just going to leave this here 😂🥳 (Only 1 point off on the total score in my prediction with KIRO FM last week. No, I didn’t bet on it 🤦🏻‍♂️) #Seahawks

Remember Seattle no jaywalking when swarming the streets 😂😂😂🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

🌧️🌧️ Here comes the rain! Expect a rainy weekend, with totals of 0.5-1" in the lowlands, and up to 2" on the coast. This system will be on the warm side, so there will only be 1-4" of snow at the passes this weekend. #wawx

View of the lenticular clouds near Mount Rainier from the Sounder in Kent on this Blue Friday! 4:40 PM | #wawx

Huge update here on US-2 #StevensPass after major washouts in December caused by historic rainfall and flooding closed the highway - “The Tumwater Canyon segment of Highway 2 is expected to reopen in mid-February, a month earlier than expected, according to WSDOT.” #wawx

Vibrant Thursday evening sunset as seen via drone from Federal Way!! #wawx

Great Falls MT tied its all time February high temperature today with a high of 70F. To demonstrate how unusually warm this is, here is a side by side comparison of what the Missouri River looked like today versus around this time last year #mtwx

A challenge for Lady Aurora last night.... Full moon, clouds and fog, but she still managed to come through....

Mt. Baker rising out of the fog over Double Bluff, Whidbey Island.

Happy February! Rainy start across the region, with 0.25-1.25"! Now, we look ahead to see how much of the region will hit 60º this week (Tuesday forecast below). #wawx

Next system is moving in W. WA this morning, with a rainy Friday in store! With another system Sunday, expect totals of 0.4-1.2" of rain across the lowlands (up to 3" on the coast), and 1-4" of snow at the passes through Sunday night. #wawx

HAWKSSSS

Western Washington will see its coldest morning of the season on Sunday, with lows likely in the low to mid 20s, with some isolated areas dipping into the upper teens. Areas near the water may remain in the upper 20s. #wawx

Looking at Mt. Jupiter (left) and Mt. Constance (right) on Saturday versus early June 2023. Sad to see how our current snowpack (36% of average per NWCC/USDA mapping) is comparable to typical June levels. Photos both by me, from Tacoma. #wawx

🥶🚨 Cold Weather Advisory thru Saturday morning! Expect overnight lows across Western Washington to drop into the mid-upper 20s (some areas of upper teens to low 20s in the coldest locations), while E. WA drops to the mid teens-low 20s. Then, even colder Sunday morning. #wawx

Earthquake! Magnitude 3.1 out here near the Snoqualmie Valley #wawx #earthquake
