One word when storing equipment . Moth balls. Well actually two words...

Yeah that's my worry. I have two snow blowers for two different locations. Of course where I expect the most snow that one's not running.

one person once told me that AFF (Air Force Academy air field) and Laramie are two of the hardest airports to forecast

Closing the book on November and now enjoying the chilly temps. 37 degrees outside, feels like holidays inside.

I like Fill 'Er Up. Best gas station food ever.

We’ve had a lot of this the last few years. Feb 2024, we were in store for what seemed to be a major storm. Literally The day before, models pulled the plug, and said maybe an inch. Then the storm came in, and it kept snowing and got heavier and heavier. NWS wouldn’t issue any warnings cuz the confidence was so low….and We got 13” and no warnings. Total modeling failure.

WB 0Z HRRR: precip starts moving in by 6 am.

I like your location for a higher end event.

Well I must admit that down here in south central Texas, I am indeed experiencing very refreshing breezes with mid 40s ambient temps and gusts out of the North to 32 mph. We got the cold front last night and I was so damned excited, just like back in the 10th Grade, that I snuck out on Main Street at 3am in a soaked t-shirt and swimming trunks. I am VERY glad I did not see any cops. They'd have locked me right up. Took a short ceremonial jebwalk. It has been so damn HOT down here. It was 48 at the time amidst northerly winds to 47 mph. No one was around. Sane people were in bed with twenty blankets on. Not the Jebman. I LOVE winter breezes! I got my fix and no one saw me.

Nah not sure it’s wet, I just meant it wasn’t a big deal. Sort of a graze. I see opportunities.

No you don't. But I'll go 1-3" here with rain

@moneypitmike and @Dan check your PM for links.

It’ll be interesting to see if we continue to trend stronger overnight on the CAD. Rn I’d say this event favors snow in VA and an ice storm with a possible front end thump for those along and north of I-85 in NC.

And also wet. I don’t see anything that jumps out as cold and snowy through mid month

It'll be interesting to see who verifies here... WNEP: 1-3 for Tamaqua CTP: 6-8 for Tamaqua

Mice destroyed the transmission in our old Crapsman. We had someone fix it. I hate mice.

Yall need to run some 12 run trend analysis and tell me what you find. Love the victory laps tonight. I do remember you said all rain for you. Hopefully not

That's exactly what's needed. I was in hopes we'd have better odds for the 50-50 this year as SST'S are somewhat more favorable around Newfoundland. Hopefully we get one setup before long. Maybe if this next round of blocking modeled comes to fruition we'll have one set up.

Mice

More Ninoish.

That’s the hope

Did mine last weekend! 2" of snow will fully cover it.

Frustrating for sure, but I try to remind myself that ~10 days ago this upcoming week was looking like a full-on torch. Since I personally love cold for its own sake (not just for association with snow), I'll be savoring the chilly temps and scanning the horizon nervously for signs of the inevitable late-December torch.

You’re gonna be going through so much gas this winter, I hope you’ve saved up over the years to get prepared!! ❄️

It appears that November 2025 at DCA ended the three consecutive months of below normal temperature streak by finishing at 50.2 degrees, vs the 1991-2020 November normal of 49.9 degrees. (However, there is uncertainty about this because for some reason there is missing temperature data for November 16th and 23rd.) Precipitation at DCA was below normal at 0.92 inches vs 2.90 during 1991-2020. The January-November 2025 temperature averaged 61.6 degrees at DCA, compared with the record warm 63.6 during January-November last year.
