If that pineapple and ham go onto a pizza, there will be words, Nito.

I can forgive your flip flopping about #teamsnow, but pineapple on pizza is where the line is drawn.

The 12Z EPSGram continues to hold off on any idea of significant heat in the 20C+ range. It's mostly in the 10-15C range.

Ham and pineapple pizza is the best! :lol: :lol: :team: :evilpine: 🍕

A lovely day here, high of only 9.5c but at least it wasn't raining and the sun even came out. There were some intense downpours yesterday, or windy. No damage from the wind, it just blew the rain sideways.

Aww noo Ms. Creeker there's a reason the emoji is called EVILPINE :lol: :lol:

That said, pineapple or not, I think we can all agree that we must unite against the evil that is the Swedish curry banana pizza. (yes, that is a thing)

Lightning on Mount Seymour but sunny on this side of the Inlet. 32kA positive CG

Update: Looks like a nasty PSCZ has set up south of the border, enough that the NWS Seattle WFO has issued a Special Weather Statement. Storms are moving east along the Snohomish and Skykomish River (Lake Stevens, Silver Firs, town of Snohomish) but not much lightning associated with them

Yup very troffy again today. Low snow levels again too. Variable skies today with some very spotty angry clouds under this troffy weather regime :shock:
