About UsLittle Bear Creek Weather is based out of North Woodinville, Washington. We are currently a very small, private weather station. LBCWeather originally started out on Facebook as a local source for weather in the Puget Sound region, specifically North King County and South Snohomish County. We have grown to over 2,000 followers on our page and are still growing. Our goal is to be a resource for all things weather and forecasting for the general public, as well as an interactive resource. We try to be very interactive with our followers, answering questions and live broadcasting/posting/tweeting through storms in the PacNW.

Who We Are |
LBCWeather was started by Brie Hawkins, who runs the private station in North Woodinville. She isn't a formally trained meteorologist, but a hobbyist in the weather world and has self taught the basics of forecasting and more. She is a part time employee at KOMO News in Seattle, working in the Radio Promotions department and an assistant in the weather department, after working as a Weather Intern for 4 months. Eventually she hopes to return to school to pursue a degree in Atmospheric Sciences. Recently, Brie teamed up with WeatherTogether, a unique website dedicated to blogging about all things weather. Our goal is to bring you up to date information on current forecasts, long term forecasts and seasonal outlooks, emergency preparedness information, live storm information, and more.
