All Activity

Never forget the Dgex victory a week+ before 2/6/10 & 2/10/10. It had us down for 36" and we all laughed.

Updated through today: The commentary on the original post is kind of funny. FFS, how much hotter do the Iowans want? Not every period needs to be record breaking, does it? Source: IEM :: 2026-01-07 Feature - Quite Warm Three Weeks

Plenty of snow left but I doubt it will survive past tomorrow night. .

One of my rox mounts actually did break and I had to zip tie to get home with it, had almost 6,000 miles of abuse and then a smooth ride with the wife at 50-60 mph with no bumps and it breaks I do appreciate the Maine insight you have, definitely a different world up here than other areas. Hope you guys do alright down there too, trends look promising. You should have good riding I imagine with the snow the past few days and what's coming this weekend. We need a good season after these past 5 disappointments.

As @Terpeast and @WxUSAF have often said, worry about thermals inside D5.

Kuchera better

Icon.... The 2026 version of the Dgex lol

Yea there's a decent moisture feed with that storm and it looks fairly neutral at 500 mb?

That block north of main is what I like to see for our bigger storms.

I thought you guys might appreciate my windshield

I don't think the storm would be ending fast on the Icon despite that surface map. If you look at the 700mb RH and wind direction along with 500mb vorticity, I think snow would linger. Here are the links. https://www.pivotalweather.com/model.php?m=icon&p=700rh&rh=2026010812&fh=180&r=conus&dpdt=&mc=&pwplus=1 https://www.pivotalweather.com/model.php?m=icon&p=500hv&rh=2026010812&fh=180&r=conus&dpdt=&mc=&pwplus=1

Well... can't say the ICON isn't consistent. Been the first model reliably on board with this. Too bad it's the ICON at Day 7 ^ ongoing at end

Lol. this brings back good memories, but Ephrata (my school district) was often the last to cave. I think they used the same playbook as CTP is often accused of. We'd be lit up because everyone around us was closing, and we were stuck at 2hr delay.

Icon opening 12z with a foothills special

12z models are now wetter again.

Now you got me thinking, maybe it was OPERATION ALERT for I105.

A few days ago that was a rainer.

Our lord and savior the icon

Saw it coming

Thaws are normal as you know so on one hand I'd rather have this now than peak climo in a few weeks. But that also means we have to produce during that time. I'm still cautiously optimistic, but keeping up with climo once you're behind (which a lot of people are) is an uphill battle. Especially this decade. I do like seeing continued activity on the models. Tbh, I've been more checked out here in CT lol.

Better yet at 174

Some BIG parking lot mounds my area. They will be around for a while. Plowed areas in my neighborhood likely gone by the weekend.

Icon at 162hrs looks not so bad. Let's see how it goes.

Its a few torchy days up here above but looks like after Tuesday next week we start going the other way a bit back to normal.
