First off I would like to wish everyone Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and such. A big thank you to all the faithful readers who continue to report their weather observations and insights.
Another year is almost in the record books and boy we have had a wild ride this year, haven’t we? From one extreme to another.
A couple of months ago I would have never thought December would be such a soggy month. As of 4 p.m. Wednesday, Vancouver has seen over 15 inches of rain. It will be interesting to see December’s records around the state.
Yesterday was a busy day in the weather department. Snow mixed in with the rain here in the city — chunky rain we like to call it. Many reports of sticking snow at 500 feet and above. Several readers sent me pictures of fresh white-covered yards.
