Expect up to 25 cm of snow tonight and another 25 tomorrow with winds up
to
100 km.
Potential for a 'weather bomb'. Spring sure seems far away!



Here on the West coast, opposite problem. We have the Pineapple Express
hitting us. Was winds to 60+ yesterday and lots of rain, 5" North of San
Francisco and was 67 degrees in San Jose. At least it is cooling off today
and supposed to be cold rains tomorrow. Real danger in the Pineapple
Express (tropical storm out of the Hawaii area as opposed to out Bering Sea
generated normal winter storm, is the warm weather. Melts the snow in the
Sierras. In 1953 and in 1964 we had major flooding in the interior valleys.
I think it melted about 20' of snow pack in 2 days.
