Definitely gonna compete for top honors. I could see that spot being fringe city in certain setups, however.

Some flakes flying. 29/19

Yep, it's nice to be in the game from just about every event. Seems like starting and ending as snow is a typical outcome even with cutters and other garbage events. I am just looking forward to the first wire-to-wire snow storm with good QPF and temps. Gotta remember it's been years for me since I have have seen one. Hopefully sometime early in December something will materialize.

That's awesome.

GYX has been talking about a minor ice threat. We will see. Haven't had a chance to see a frozen to rain event yet. Seen several of the other direction, and I feel like I changeover to frozen very quickly here if the winds are out of the NW, N, or NE. Takes longer from the west.

Randolph has 8 inches so far in November, although it's mostly been "fake snow" or marginal changeover snow so there was never more than 3 or so inches OTG at any given time. Average is 16.9, but that is thrown off in the 10 year sample by the silly total of 49.7 in 2018. Throwing out that one high fluke total yields a November average of about 13". So it seems that we could still get fairly close, perhaps to 10-11" if some of these marginal events break right and with a couple inches of fluff from upslope tomorrow evening.

Yeah, I'm hoping that's the case. Bunch of marginal garbage events rolling through this week, hoping for some Randolph flukiness to keep it mostly a little snow then some drizzle versus a washout. I'm gonna be patient but I was really hoping to be done with 37 and rain by now.

Real crappy week setting up weather-wise. A taste of deep winter in MD for you guys.

I am really hoping for a monster bombing storm blowing up in the Gulf of Maine while my temps are in the low 20s. Is that so much to ask for? Enough of this weak-ass sheared crap we keep getting

Damn, you work for some Nazis?

It really is a dark winter coming. Bad time of year to have lockdowns returning with the weather and shortened daylight time. I feel for people trapped in small apartments during this.

If a moose wanted to lick my car that badly, it’s not clear how I would prevent or stop that.

Yeah, that explains some things. I'm sure you have seen the worst of COVID and then some.

Yikes, well sounds like you have been in a bit of an epicenter for COVID. Every single person I know who has gotten the virus had the smell/taste thing and some fatigue, that was it. We all have had different experiences. Based on mine, your infection sounds like it was really nasty. Serious breathing issues is a major complication. We did have one distant relation who was very, very ill with heart failure and cancer die with COVID as a complication, but he was in really bad shape already.

This sounds like a pretty severe case to me. Most infections are much milder than this.

Thank you for acknowledging the retail workers. All the talk about nurses, doctors, and teachers but no one ever considers the retail workers who have been on the job non-stop for months and exposed to thousands of people. They can’t telework like many teachers are doing now. Yet I never hear any of them complain or demand shutdowns...

Sounds pretty sweet. I doubt anyone will hassle you there. It's not like you are going to VT after all. LOL

Loss of taste and smell seems like the most common symptom for the typical low-grade infections most people get. Followed by fatigue. Every single person I know who has COVID has the loss of taste and smell symptom first. I assume there is some other viral mechanism at work causing this because it isn't always accompanied by the congestion and stuffy nose that can cause similar symptoms with a cold. The people I have spoken to about this said they just realized suddenly they couldn't smell or taste anything even with a clear nose and chest.

Where in NH?

Crazy how steady the temp has been here today. Still 54.

I'll take my chances with that Miller B at my location...

Been stuck at 54 since noon. Hasn’t budged at all.

CMC gives us a nice little snowstorm right before Thanksgiving, too bad it’s the CMC. GFS is a strung out mess at the same time.
