  1. Haven’t seen this dense of fog in a few years. Fog is beautiful but scary when driving on dark backroads. Reminds me of a time in Texas we were crossing a lake and the fog on the bridge was so thick you couldn’t see the pavement. We had to stop and let someone out to walk in front of the car to avoid hitting the concrete barrier (curbing bridge). If anyone had come up behind us we’d have died I’m sure. That was probably the 2nd scariest experience I’ve ever had in a vehicle. (First was caught in a tornado off I-20 outside Dallas at 8:30 pm one April. I’ll never forget that noise, shaking, fear)
  2. We did end November slightly above normal didn't we, even with the early cold? Today feels like a real winter day, for sure! Next two weeks look unsettled for sure, here's hoping we get some temp cooperation.
  3. I hope you're right! I should clarify I'm by no means cancelling winter - I just have a feeling it's not going to be our year and we miss while others get hit. Not trying to be negative and not talking about any upcoming threat, just a raw feeling I have that I'm rooting to be wrong.
  4. I've had a gut feeling all fall this winter will be a very poor one for us LSV folks so I'm not getting any hopes up at all. We had such a good year last year (no big, big storm after that first one but we were above climo) that we have to pay the piper.
  5. I was outside at 7:05 and snow wasn’t on any car in downtown. It was quite dry, I think we missed precip.
  6. 0z models minus Euro is a nonevent for anyone NW of Harrisburg, maybe an inch or so there (so another rooftop we only) running NE up to the Lehigh Vallet, and Central to NE MD and extreme SE PA get the goods. A Maryland special.
  7. HBG tends to feast or famine - either barely anything or the cold arrives and we get hit harder than expected. Always a really tough call for mets, thankfully it looks like the timing of this is mostly overnight so you'll know what's happening by the time of the morning commute.
  8. I remember looking at the Canadian in late August and it showed us getting 3-4” snow. That model is wack.
  9. The system late next week is intriguing. It needs some cold air but if it’s around ....
  10. What's generating this wind that hit early this am, today? It didn't see anything that'd create it so blustery, but we're getting pretty frequent gusts in the upper 20s.
  11. We've kinda sorta given up trying to fly back to Texas from December to March because it's such a hassle with weather. I mean, we'll do it but we try to not go just for random reasons that time of the year (we usually fly down 6-8 times a year, for reference).
  12. First official snowfall of the season - I'm putting it down for .5 (it was melting by the time I got out at 7:45 a.m.)
  13. In December before the holidays it wouldn't be necessarily where you want to get stuck after a cruise, with no way out, though.
  14. Sunny now in Harrisburg. It's going to be a dry day here, the atmosphere has killed any precip chances until much later tonight.
  15. NAM says no one west of like extreme Bucks county sees anything hardly at all.
  16. If they're in Manhattan they can get to Penn Station very easily and at least get to Philly, so better there than stranded in say, Bar Harbor, Maine.
  17. Glad you aren't having to drive through the snowstorm! Yeah, HRRR paints an ugly picture - we'll see what happens. So what happens to those customers at the cruise terminal? As someone who has taken cruises back to NYC and hired car services to bring us home, being stranded there during a snowstorm would be ... awful lol.
  18. To CTPs credit they talk accumulations. It’ll be hard to get accumulating snow tomorrow given timing, marginal temps and (lack of) intensity.
