Providing timely weather forecasts, updates and meteorological tid-bits for residents, visitors and agriculturalists in the Methow Valley of WA State

[Ecology - Central Region @ecyCentral]

Even in arid climes we do rely on normal precipitation to help with soil moisture and water supplies.

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

The Week Ahead: Cool mornings topped with warm sunny afternoons. Maybe even a surprise 70 degree day in there mid-week. Enjoy it #Methow!

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Wow #Methow, did that 63F feel good today or what?!

We might be behind on moisture, but somehow we'll manage to get through the week ahead...it just keeps getting better.

As we wait for the sun this week we are excited to offer you all a new Corvid 19 indoor drinking game. Tune in the Coronavirus Task Force Press Briefing & take a drink every time a new speaker touches the lectern in the same place as the previous speaker. @cnnbrk @realDonaldTrump

A dab of moisture was a good thing this week for this little gal and her sunbathing friends. Gradually warming throughout the week with temps above 60 F next weekend #Methow to start brightening the hills and our days. #aprilshowers #Flowers #spring

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Hang in there #Methow! The wildflowers need a shot or two of moisture this week before sun and 55+ return next weekend! Bonus Feature: UV light degrades the virus, so be sure to bathe in it when you can!

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Is that a shit storm of public outrage showing up on the radar tonight?

Better use one of your federally funded sick days tomorrow to get your fill of Big Valley, Lewis Butte, Rex Derr and other State-owned lands #Methow

[Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife @WDFW]

In response to @GovInslee's Stay Home, Stay Healthy order, WDFW and @WAStatePks are closing all state-managed parks, wildlife areas, and water access areas for at least 2 weeks starting tomorrow, March 25. More at https://t.co/17KUKv6N7N. #WeGotThisWA #SocialDistancing #StayHome

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Here comes a change #Methow. Get out today and soak up all the glorious sunshine you can to fuel yourselves through the week ahead!

[NWS Spokane @NWSSpokane]

Next weather system sagging down the Pac NW Coastline this afternoon to bring gusty winds and increasing chance for showers on Monday. Not as windy Tuesday but rain and snow showers will become more common.
Temperatures respond by cooling back into the 40s and 50s. #wawx #idwx

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

High temperatures will drop appx 10 degrees from Sunday to Monday in the #Methow. Soak it up while you can!

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Oh, and NO, trailhead restrooms have not been stocked with toilet paper yet. Nice try!

[Oka-Wen NF @OkaWenNF]

If you plan to go out in the woods, practice social distancing & be aware there are no garbage services this time of year. Most restrooms are closed & not cleaned on a regular schedule until they reopen in the spring. Plan ahead and be safe out there! #WednesdayWisdom

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Welcome Spring! The NWAC Station in Mazama just registered 61F. 😀 https://t.co/DYmRVRhNU3
Take that you f*cking virus!

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Hard to draw much from this one, though the mountains should see a nice dump of snow over the coming week...

[NWS Climate Prediction Center @NWSCPC]

In case you missed it, here's our final temperature and precipitation outlooks for the month of March. https://t.co/JI2DUvhln5

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Below normal temps and below normal precip for the 8 to 14 day period ahead. February's word of the month is "firm"!

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

@crankijames Ha! Agreed...though we'll flirt with stubborn warm air for at least the next week. Gotta get on it early and spend your afternoon enjoying a waffle cone somewhere...

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Have you ever played Put-Put Golf @ Sheri's Sweet Shoppe in #Winthrop? That's how this week is going to feel...a little snow here and a little snow there, all adding up to a good time!

The weather week ahead will be challenging in the #Methow. Expect a little bit of everything with east flow helping to keep temps down. Freezing Rain likely to be two words you hear a lot this week.

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Yes please, eh!

[NWS Seattle @NWSSeattle]

Want more snow? Check out this video from St. Johns on Newfoundland which received epic amounts of snow and blizzard conditions overnight! St. John's experienced a one-day record snowfall of 76.2 centimeters (30 inches)!

[MethowWeather @MethowWeather]

Go ahead #Methow, leave the freezer door open a bit longer than needed this coming week. Temps will dance right at the edge of rain vs snow.
