Lady Di

I'm OK with just some flakes flying around. Headed up to Schwenksville tomorrow just about the time the front comes. Weird feeling nervous about leaving the house, but I'll only be gone 24 hrs. I'll get a text if the power goes out. Fuel gauge is on 1/2 tank. Stay warm folks!

Sunny and 24F feels like 2. Wind chimes are singing and seeing a bit of blowing snow. Hawk sighting earlier on my deck.

If a storm thread gets started before Thursday, I swear I will hunt you down!! Both landlord and my son were here. We're dug out. I have a flat tire AND a broken windshield washer thingy --on the driver's side of course! Son has the piece needed but he's in the tractor and the part is in his truck. I might be stuck home another day! Temps are going to dip this evening. It's frigid out there. @ 25F but sun feels nice.

20F now. Sun should appear soon. So sorry for those folks down south. Ice is the worst and so glad it was not bad here. Watching my neighbor trying to get out. Hardly a soul out on the highway. Grateful I am allowed to work from home and that the good Lord blessed me with a son who will come finish cleaning up (I hope) today.

@KamuSnowjuat flipped here. Anytime now for you. Wonderful morning. Enjoying a champagne cocktail.

Looking at the radar still snow. In a sweet spot for a little longer!!!

Still snow here. Intense at times. What do you guys call it? White smoke!

Morning. 13F. Light snow changing to moderate at times. Deck table looks to be over 1”. Come on sunrise!

Thank you all for the wonderful insight regarding this storm. Have 2-5 gal cans of propane which should give me 8 to 10 hrs of heat. Losing power is my fear with this one. Also going to crank up the heat tomorrow morning for a bit. 13F feels like 1. It’s cold.

Sorry for the non weather question. I’m old and a widow so preparing. Adam Joseph said don’t shovel the snow before it flips cause you’ll never get the frozen stuff off a bare walk. Is he correct? Just had a pretty good wind gust. Cold front incoming. Wind chimes going nuts just now.

It will be sleeting here (IMBY) by game time. At least I can have a champagne and egg breakfast, so I am not all that down. All our forums are very active with this huge storm. Hoping all make out OK, I've been reading all of them.

Wow. Not sure my location will hit double digits before the flip. I'll take 6-8" and like it. It's that frozen junk that has me worried. Huge storm.

What do y'all think the potential for power outages will be? Less than 50%? Not so much during the storm but possibly either tomorrow night or Monday. Thinking about getting some propane tanks filled so I can have a source of heat (fireplace) if needed. Not so worried about seeing if the generator will work as I'll just put stuff in a cooler outside to stay cold/frozen.

Car was @3F. after sunrise. Beautiful morning. Vapor streams out of chimneys and exhaust pipes.

Jan 23-2016. Only 10 years ago!! Just glad to see you guys are tracking a good one. May not be same type but it'll snow it seems.
