No, but they were in my final 3 lol. I'm actually a marlin of Virginia Wesleyan University. Sadly, we are changing names soon because of a rich donor.

The students weren't the only ones on Grounds enjoying the snow today!

Looks like your retention spot kicks some ass!

I was in high school too. I remember getting out early that day. We had a family Christmas gathering that night and still went. We passed dozens of cars stalled out in the main roadways - no plows could keep up. I also recall it being bitterly cold after that snow and school basically got canceled an extra 3-4 days before winter break. Magical time! Freed up some 1 am evenings with the boys playing call of duty lol.

White rain gradually turned to powdery snow at 1.5" hour rates, ski resort locally is opening this weekend and saying wow, glad we didn't invest in snowmakers after all. ... 32 F, hills are nearly impassable locally.

Old Dominion? Do we have a Monarch in this chat?!

hrrr remains north/wet and p far off from consensus global look

Right or wrong, it is still comical to see the Euro with a big warm surge via an anchored Bermuda High and SER starting the week of Christmas. Can't make this stuff up.

Chicago per model consensus is on track for a top tier cold Dec 1-20. Here are the 15 coldest Dec 1-20 at Chicago of the last 75 years (top 20 %) in reverse chronological order: 2016, 13, 10, 08, 05, 00, 89, 85, 83, 76, 72, 63, 58, 56, 50 2025 appears at this time like it might compete with many of these.

I have awarded you the Americanwx.com Prize for Occasional Posting Adequacy! This is a real prize, honestly. On a related note, we got a nice draw…

2009 I was in VA Beach at college/with my ex gf and missed it unfortunately. 2010 Christmas storm was nice. Last big snow we had I got to enjoy with my mom.

Snagged a 4-pack of the 10oz bottles. Also grabbed a 500ml Double Barrel Reserve 2025 and a Chocolate Praline 2025 (this one sounded fun). They are currently in the cellar aging.

That big SOI drop/strong -SOI correlation to strengthening the STJ only works during El Niños, not La Nina’s. Unfortunately many years ago, JB spread the completely false narrative that big SOI drops, no matter what the ENSO state, result in an energized southern stream (STJ) and east coast storms and it got taken for fact and people ran with it…

measured 5" in Clifton Forge, VA at 9am.

I was in high school… i remember walking out of school that day at 9am to a whiteout. Most of my friends put their cars in ditches that day… but somehow i drove my Chevy Lumnia from South all the way to the otherside of Dudley. .

For any of you considering watching a replay of the World Cup draw…don’t. You can thank me later…

That beer is absolutely amazing. Their 2018 vanilla was also killer! I still have one 2018 left, though having done a tasting with both 2018 and 2024 last year, it had definitely started to fall off a bit. I like the smaller 10 oz bottles for regular BCBS this year. Don’t need to drink a whole 500 ml bottle in one go!

That 2009 event is so underrated. One of my all time favorites.

31° and very light snow. Don’t think it is adding anything significant to my total at this point though. Been snowing now for 15 hours! Nice little storm. NW of Staunton in Augusta County.

If freezing drizzle develops, a glaze of ice is possible on any untreated surface. This may result in hazardous travel conditions quickly developing.

First event at my new home and ended up in the southwest snow-hole! I actually did end up with a respectable 1.3” that has since largely melted. Still very pleased with this one, early December snow is all gravy to me. Also, i’ll have to go back and check later but not sure I got warmer than 32 all day, very impressive for this time of year

wrong subforum buddy

Deep creek man....you dont want to retire in Winchester
