  1. The cyclical roller coaster here when catching up on the thread after a few hours is something to behold. It goes from it's looking bad, it's looking worse, looks really bad, throw in the towel, followed almost immediately by some model which suddenly gives hope, followed by a few more that follow suit, followed by more that show no storm, followed by heated debate, followed by a model that says GAME ON", then some quiet... and then... repeat. Every 90 minutes or so.
  2. As TWC, Accuweather, etc love to do, they make it impossible for ~15 million people, and by far the largest viewership area on that map, to have any idea what they are thinking for their area. They feel it is more important to remind me in giant font that I live in New York. Not that I'm hanging on TWC's word, especially 4 days out, but either make your forecast clear or don't bother with the map.
  3. Thanks. And, as was the consensus here yesterday, despite that 2.5 I measured this morning, by 2PM there was still less snowcover in my estimation than there was 24 hours prior. it was gone from whatever grassy surfaces it had accumulated on that much, and in had receded beyond where it was yesterday.
  4. I don't mind it. The enthusiasm and the good natured way he takes the criticism is better than a lot of us. One quibble, and happy to be corrected by anyone on this: It's "Wintry" not "Wintery" right? Always bugs me when I see it written the latter way.
  5. Forget it. Imagine the sun angle, not to mention the moon angle, by next week. What's the use.
  6. From the lack of observations I'm guessing this was one of those rare south shore specials? 2.5" (maybe slightly more) on grassy surfaces. 1.5 on the sidewalk. Clung to everything too. While there's definitely pavement showing on my side street, it's a bit of a snowy/slushy mess. Will enjoy the look before it's gone by this afternoon. Nice little event here.
  7. End of "A Christmas Story" intensity and type of flakes falling here. Beautiful.
  8. I was 99.85% sure this was sarcasm, but I was waiting for someone smarter than me to laugh first. Thanks Nibor.
  9. Just stepped outside. 45, sunny, and nearly calm. Given what we’ve been experiencing, beautiful. For today at least, 45 might as well be 65.
  10. That's great - same here, 5th grade! It's the storm that got me hooked.
  11. We're one day short of a new moon on Sunday night (only 3.8% illuminated.) Let's see what you can do with that wise guy.
