Wow, very interesting. That was a brutal Winter indeed, the same one in fact where Washington set up camp in Morristown.

13 inches so far this season (running on par with last year IMBY). This year, 8 of those inches came from one storm in December, whereas last season, 7 were a result of the November storm.

I think it's because the winds were very strong like Cp mentioned, and they already had snow on the ground too.

10:30pm, when I got home from work.

2 inches here in Butler, what'd you end up with @rgwp96? The problem with people is that they think their vehicles are snow capable, and they very well might be, but the tires they have are complete garbage. Most people have no idea how much tires really mean.

Have had several periods of wind driven wet snow today.

Pretty heavy rain and strong gusts came through about an hour ago.

Probably will, usually the case with warm anomalies like today.

You could always take a loan out on a used car for a smaller amount too if building credit is the goal. That's what I typically do, never bought new. As for brand, I love Ford. The Ecoboost is good from what I hear, but I've only had the 5.0 V8.

Yeah not a place I'd want to be under any circumstances.

Gotta be either Sierra Nevada or Cascades. Need a heck of a moisture feed for that. Way more than we get in an entire season over a three day period, insane.

Flagstaff has a very interesting climate and beautiful scenery. For that matter, I'm a fan of the western U.S. in general. My dilemma would be choosing what "landscape" to live near. I like Montana and being in foothills of the Rockies, yet at the same time the high elevation parts of Arizona and New Mexico are intriguing too.

Lol, yeah I agree. I'm just one of those technical people that likes it perfect. Just like the misconception that the solstice means that sunset is the earliest of the year.

Lmao, then I must add you to my ignore list. No but all jokes aside, I personally hate the meteorological standard. Our seasons are not determined by the calendar.

March 7. My area cashed in on some major rates. Best I've ever seen. January 2016 was an impressive storm here too.

And then two years later in March 2018 we got this:

I love the Christmas season and the music that goes with it.

Definitely. Both explain weather phenomenon very well IMO. Speaking of leaf drop, my neighbors tree (which is almost entirely over our property) usually doesn't shed until after Thanksgiving, sometimes even into December. However, after last Friday's cold and wind combo, they dropped off faster than I've ever seen before. Most other trees around here are either completely bare, or if they do have leaves it is a mix of brown/dull colors. Really not much green left. Unlike last year, I waited to start raking until now, otherwise the leaves come right back.

It's a shame, I hope radio doesn't die out. I like 101.1, 104.3, 103.7, and many others. Fun to listen to the various DJ's. But, as we see more and more, the human element of things is being replaced/removed.

Jeff Smith on Channel 7 is great too.

I like going by the criteria that makes it seem further away On the other hand, Summer starts on June 1st...

Winter is over a month away.

It came on way too fast. If this was February I wouldn't mind. I'd gladly take 60s right now.

Nah, the other night looked promising, but clouds ended up getting in the way. 34 is my lowest temp so far.

It's a shame because we had very nice color here, but it didn't last long and a lot of trees thinned out early. Not bad though considering the rough start. Like I said in the interior forum, my first hard freeze usually comes in strong, and this year is no exception. Friday's low is forecasted to be 23° currently.
