  1. Past hour
  2. Give it 5 days before he starts lecturing everyone on CC and blaming the fast flow for the phase 100 mi too far east for us.
  3. I was in Smith (RIP). I actually watched them tear it down during the summer of 2010. Eames was a women’s dorm. Smith was a men’s dorm. We shared a cafeteria in Smith as well as access to the steam tunnel connecting across University Ave
  4. It’s a good sub forum! Don’t expect any/much Tennessee mountain talk though. Their clime dynamics are almost literally the opposite of ours so there’s rarely much crossover unless there’s a big storm that encompasses the entire southern apps.
  5. But I’m serious. What models are incorporated in the NBM?
  6. big fur baby let's domesticate
  7. I have been quietly hoping it goes away today BC I'm not getting hit and I don't feel like blogging about it.
  8. I could be wrong but this might be it dropping down from Canada
  9. I guess solar radiation fails to exist in CT. What a place.
  10. Southern exposed. But not late Jan early February with 20s/0s
  11. My scientific explanation for the 18z Euro suite is that the European model has a personal beef with Wake County, North Carolina…and they want Wake County to know that it’s personal. .
  12. So you’re telling me there’s a chance? In my best Jim Carrey voice.
  13. How in the sam hell does the NBM show this much snow? What op or Ensemble shows anything close to this? https://x.com/surfskiweather/status/2017028952393474100?s=46&t=dhcbvkjmRcyBVQtDxJ3lRg
  14. In the midst of the longest cold snap since at least 2018 and some are talking about melting. Can’t make it up.
  15. 2025-2026 Fall/Winter Mountain Thread https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?share_fid=13197&share_tid=62156&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eamericanwx%2Ecom%2Fbb%2Findex%2Ephp%3F%2Ftopic%2F62156-2025-2026-Fall-Winter-Mountain-Thread&share_type=t&link_source=app .
  16. If the euro was true, Wake county would have the lowest amounts in the entire state. Including the coast. .
  17. There’s no melting happening here…if you want argue an ever so slight sublimation…perhaps? But it’s imperceptible here currently. Pack looks exactly as it did Monday morning. Still Very fresh looking on top of it I might add. When it’s zero or below in the morning, and barely hits 20 during the day, that’s what happens.
  18. Records: Highs: EWR: 70 (2002) NYC: 69 (2002) LGA: 68 (2002) JFK: 69 (2002) Lows: EWR: 0 (1977) NYC: 0 (1873) LGA: 2 (1977) JFK: 3 (1977) Historical: 1780 - On the coldest morning of a severe winter the mercury dipped to 16 degrees below zero at New York City, and reached 20 degrees below zero at Hartford CT. New York Harbor was frozen for five weeks, allowing a heavy cannon to be taken across the ice to fortify the British on Staten Island. (The Weather Channel) 1921 - A small but intense windstorm resulted in the "Great Olympic Blowdown" in the Pacific Northwest. Hurricane force winds, funneled along the mountains, downed vast expanses of Douglas fir trees, and the storm destroyed eight billion board feet of timber. Winds at North Head WA gusted to 113 mph. (David Ludlum) 1921: A small but intense windstorm resulted in the "Great Olympic Blowdown" in the Pacific Northwest. Hurricane-force winds funneled along the mountains downed vast expanses of Douglas fir trees, and the storm destroyed eight billion board feet of timber. Winds at North Head, WA, gusted to 113 mph. On January 31, 1921, the International News Services reported from Aberdeen, Washington, "It is reported that thousands of dollars in damage was done to buildings and storms in Aberdeen and Hoquiam. The wind velocity was estimated at from 125 to 150 miles an hour. Four steel smokestacks reaching almost 200 feet into the air were the first to collapse before the terrific onslaught of the gale. The giant chimneys crashed down on dwellings crushing them like houses of cardboard." 1947: On this date through the 30th, a fierce winter storm buried southern Wisconsin under two feet of snow. Strong northeasterly winds piled drifts up to 10 feet high in the Milwaukee area, shutting down the city for two days. 1983 - A series of Pacific coast storms finally came to an end. The storms, attributed in part to the ocean current, "El Nino," produced ocean swells 15 to 20 feet high which ravaged the beaches of southern California. Much of the damage was to homes of movies stars in the exclusive Malibu Colony. (The Weather Channel) 1987 - A strong storm moving out of the Central Rockies spread snow across the north central states, with up to eight inches of snow in Wisconsin, and produced wind gusts to 64 mph at Goodland KS. A thunderstorm produced three inches of snow in forty-five minutes at Owing Mills MD. (National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - Rain and snow were primarily confined to the northwestern U.S. An afternoon reading of 34 degrees at International Falls MN was a record high for the date. (National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1989 - Bitter cold air continued to pour into Alaska. At McGrath, temperature dipped to 63 degrees below zero. Strong winds blowing through the Alaska Range between Fairbanks and Anchorage produced a wind chill reading of 120 degrees below zero at Cantwell. (National Weather Summary) 1990 - Severe thunderstorms in the southeastern U.S. spawned a tornado which destroyed three mobile homes near Blythe GA injuring six persons. A fast moving cold front produced high winds in the western U.S. Winds along the coast of Oregon gusted to 65 mph at Portland, and high winds generated 22 to 26 foot seas which battered the coast. Winds near Reno NV gusted to 78 mph. High winds also buffeted the Central High Plains, with gusts to 94 mph reported at La Mesa CO. (National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 2002 - A major three-day winter storm blasted parts of Kansas and Missouri. A catastrophic ice storm occurred south of the snow area, with two inches of ice and snow accumulating in the Kansas City, Missouri area. Thousands of trees were felled by the storm, blocking roads, felling utility lines, and causing fires. Two "Bicentennial Trees," estimated at being over 200 years old, were badly damaged from this storm. After the 31st, 325,000 people were reported without power in Kansas City alone. 2004: Minnesota: All Minnesota weather stations record a low temperature below zero F this morning. The coldest is Park Rapids where the low was minus 45° F.(Ref. Wx.Doctor) A strong trough crossed the lower Great Lakes region. The well-aligned northwest flow kicked off an intense band of lake effect snow over Oswego County in New York. The band remained nearly stationary for 36 to 42 hours. Four to five feet of snow fell in a narrow section of central Oswego County by the afternoon of the 30th. The band drifted north into southern Lewis and extreme southern Jefferson Counties for awhile on the 30th, before drifting back south across Monroe, Wayne and northern Cayuga Counties on the 31st. Specific snowfall totals included: 86 inches at Parish, 58 inches at Constantia, 56 inches at West Monroe, 51 inches at North Osceola, 48 inches at Oswego and 40 inches at Fulton. The weight of this snow, as well as previous lake effect storms during the month, caused several buildings to collapse.(Ref. Wilson Wx. History) 2008 - A sharp cold front moved across Illinois during the day, producing a drastic temperature drop. Temperatures fell 20 to 40 degrees in just a couple of hours, with areas from Springfield, Illinois to St. Louis, Missouri seeing temperatures fall as much as 50 degrees between noon and 6 pm. Temperatures in the mid-60s in central Illinois at midday on the 29th had fallen to near zero by the next morning.
