If you want a storm that is a blizzard cradle to death you had one in 1993. It happens once ever 50-100 years. Everything else is going to be hard around here. If you move to mt. Shasta it's a bit easier Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk

Yeah, I think it will be icy for a bit, but hopefully not enough accretion to cause any issues.

send the crippling ice storm this way.

Dry is what gives you a worse ice storm around here. Wet we would have a raging sleet bomb which is fun in its own right, but much easier to handle road wise. 0.02" to 0.05" per hour is the ideal rate for ice accretion at the temperatures this evening. I don't know what you want from this storm besides. It seems like you would be happiest if we got nothing. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk

My new TV is set to be delivered currently at 3:44 pm. It’ll be fun seeing how this goes.

Thanks, Debbie. .

Is that the winter equivalent of “It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity”?

Some guidance never warm sectors north of pike over interior.

I’m hopeful to see one 1 sleet pellet.

most americans throw tons of food away each year. stocking up just means more for the sanitation crews to pick up when it goes bad. can't tell you how many bags of mozzarella, tubs of sour cream and cream cheese, freakin tofu my wife buys, that we throw out from costco every month. you can only eat so many bagels. i now order cold cuts by the slice, not the pound. they aren't even good after a day in the fridge. that said, who wants to shop in the snow? i was at costco for the last storm and it was nuts; i did need a new shovel, and they were nearly out....i'm ready to go for this one.

and if it makes us happy, why the hell are we so sad? .

Precip starting here, ZR and some pingers. 28.6/16.0ºF

Hoping to see the sleet line race north to the Tappan Zee bridge tonight

Its like a self fulfilling prophecy. People hear snow and think everyone is going to go the store and they're going to run out of the basics so then everyone goes to the store and they run out of the basics.

MDT is above normal for the season to date at 5.0”

what are you talking about ? you know something actual professionals don't ?

Where? Both of the 68/219 traffic cams show traffic moving at speed.

Some strong clipper memories Usually go from flurries to full on dendrites. Piles up quickly. Rates are crazy in max zones. Max bands don't last long but can produce 4 to 6 in 2 hrs. As quick as it came it winds down to 1/2 per hour then it gets very cold and windy. Blowing and drifting is an issue. Final call for CT. BDR 8, HVN 6, BDL 8, DXR 9, IJD 6, ME 5, KEV 7, Wolfie 8, 4 Seasons 9 , Big Jay 8, Lava Lake 4, FXWX 10

The 12z AIGFS is a fun pattern. Cold with chances.

I think you meant, if it makes you happy, it can’t be that bad…

Blizzard -3.4” on snowfall this season. Hopefully we will get caught back up in the future.

35 w a sleet sun shower.

Probably a sharper cutoff than modeled but there’s always that 700mb fronto jackpot band.

Some pingers in Canton

accuweather for my town now showing likeliest amount total as coating to an inch, sorry. WFMZ still saying coating - 4", the winter weather advisory for my county at 1-3". I'm hopeful for higher ends, but was trying a reverse jinx post.
