    people post a lot of snow maps. monday is going to be mostly a cold rain for many, lol at these maps showing 4-5 inches for some. 

    Wait? I'm not getting 5 inches of mash potatoes followed by a foot of powder on Wednesday? Say it so lol.

    What would you guesstimate the heaviest snowfall rates were at your location in inches/hr?

     

    ETA: Also, congrats in advance on your rain jackpot over the next 24 hours.

    I've been in the rain jackpot for 6 months lol. 

    I remember riding the bus to school that morning and it was cold and raining lightly. About half way to school I remember big snowflakes starting to mix in and come down heavier. By the time we got off the bus about 15 minutes later it was all snow and already starting to stick on grass and cars. That was probably about 8am. By 11 roads had caved and it was coming down probably 2+ inches per hour. I remember eating lunch in the cafeteria and hearing loud thunder and seeing flashes of lightning like a summer storm. I'd estimate it was snowing 3+ inches per hour at that point. That went on most of the afternoon. It finally ended around dark but by then we were stuck in school. Some kids had to stay all night. I remember measuring 16" when I got home that night. It fell in about 7 hours from i remember. We probably got a foot between 11am and 3pm along with intense lightning. It was an amazing storm. I've been a fan of  weather since I've been able to look out a window.

    The maples behind my house are all bare now.  It's funny watching the ginko street trees in parts of the neighborhood -- they turn bright yellow for a couple days then dump all their leaves literally in hours, even if clam weather.  They did this yesterday.

    Steady rain starting to move in now and 66 degrees, which was basically the low temp.  I still have potted plants on the deck full of flowers.  Hard to believe we had a massive snowstorm 33 years ago today!

    I'm 42 and that was probably my favorite storm so far. So much bright flashes of lightning and loud claps of thunder for hours alone with huge dumping snowflakes. I was in 3rd grade and remember it like yesterday. Got stuck in school until 10pm.

    Sure has . I stopped watching News and TV for 10 years because it was extremely biased,  full of propaganda , pushing narratives etc, until this past February and I started watching again because of covid.  Boy that was a mistake.  MSM is unfortunately exponentially worse and now we have Social media giants censoring.  Its completely out of hand . The only real social media I'm on is this site lol. I have a Facebook account but i hardly ever post or look at it . 

    The good news is we all know it's corrupt. Now how do we fix it.

    Looking beyond our mild/warm and boring stretch of weather, mid next week looks to become active with possible tropical connection.

    Oh joy. Some mud and humidity to add to the heat. I can't stand humidity this time of year. Everything stays damp all day.

    First flakes of the winter season NW of Winchester. Right on time. Early November is when we usually get them.

    Haven't even had frost here yet. Probably be December the way the pattern looks. Back to summer after one chilly day.

    Let's gooooo!!! LOL. 

    What is the earliest those of you in the city and metro areas actually look for it to snow? I always think of first flakes being legitimately possible around November 20 and then obviously first actual legit snow December 5.

    In 1984 I had 16" on Nov 11th.

    Radar is underwhelming. Rain still hasn't even gotten here yet.

    Not here in the jungle. Radar is overwhelming. Been raining lightly since 1:30. Becoming heavier and steadier as I type.
