North Balti Zen

Didn’t miss that one - but I was in Cincinnati then and just seven. I remember it though - but cincy was just far enough south and west to miss the very worst of it. Still - school was closed for a week and a half and the drifts were crazy for just five inches of snow having fallen.

Moved there after college from 1994-96. My daughter was born at Springfield North hospital in 1995. We lived right downtown and an easy 15 minutes down to Young’s... I was there for Ohio’s part of the blizzard of ‘96. Wasn’t supposed to be much and we backed into 14 inches . Not like it was over here but, the biggest positive bust I’ve ever been around.

May need to visit my old stomping grounds of Richmond, Ind to Springfield, Ohio...

Congrats Atlanta to Charleston?

This must have been a helluva storm - would have been one to chase: NOAA NCEI Climate on Twitter: "The Great Appalachian Storm of 1950 ranks as a Category 5 snowstorm for the Ohio Valley on the Regional Snowfall Index: https://t.co/fucDWdLeLQ https://t.co/JZwHKL4diB" / Twitter

I don't understand you. Nothing OTHER THAN THE PANDEMIC is stopping people from going to support those businesses now. The fact of the matter is the vast majority of people are doing the safe thing for them and their loved ones and staying in as much as possible and avoiding crowds for obvious reasons. You want to save small businesses? I assume you have been calling the republican senate who has been obstructing a second needed relief act every day to lodge your frustration. Otherwise, what the **** are you going on about? Until a vaccine is here and widely available, it is going to be tough sledding for everyone.

I have experienced a LOT of low points as a bengals fan in five decades. But yesterday was easily into a very competitive top five worst.

My son saw a few flakes around 9:30 pm - matches timeframe from NW balt and Wxusaf obs...

Have booted the usual multi-family gathering for Thanksgiving, but will still host parent/in-law parent at the house - keeping the gathering to 7. BUT, we really want to have it on our patio outdoors - fingers crossed for the mid-50s midday highs for a week from Thursday with low chances of rain hold. That would be swell.

This is the well known "summer vestige" portion of NOVEMBER. We will also see this "summer vestige" at times in November/December, November/January/, November/February/, November/March, and November/April.

Could be that "severe season" never really ends this year and just rolls into 2021.

Remember this is the only the first month of our new season: NOVEMBER. We are in November/November. The season of NOVEMBER runs through November/April. We have six months of NOVEMBER ahead of us.

In all seriousness, very positive news. Good deal. Also, went to Rehobeth on Saturday with my better half and the equally better dog to take advantage of the mid-May weather. it was...pretty damn nice. Further also, the winter season I can finally think about chasing to see snow and it looks like the closest snow will be Calgary seems...about par for my course.

Whoever it was that was downplaying this system up here...bad call.

Heh. I laughed.

Seems like the models spitting out higher rain totals are going to be right. Looks like a period of torrential rain this afternoon too.

oh my god, that pic is unreal. wow.

Heavy snow and that kind of cold just introduces uncertainty is all. If you are alive in a survivor league, there are other games that are not being played in a snowstorm...

Prob good idea to avoid KC in survivor then. That kind of weather a weird variable.

No kidding. I don't think I've seen a thicker fog here in the 10 years I've worked in downtown Baltimore. This is unreal.

I agree. My wife should definitely risk death to open schools.

This map is acceptable. Totally chaseable and on a weekend. Win.

On this day in weather history - landfall north of Myrtle Beach for Hazel:

The I-81 corridor would be super acceptable. I-81 specials get the thumbs up from me for this year.
