  1. You make a good point. Man, if it didn't take you long to feed on my bait. LOL I have no idea who bought my tickets for the Mavs game but I did "pretty well" on said transaction... Luka was feisty the other night.
  2. I'm ready. Turned down a LOT of money to sell my seats. I gouged a poor Mavericks fan blind for next week's game so that I'll feel better about going tomorrow. Besides, my wife and I are on a roll now. We've seen 6 wins in our last 7 trips. Got to keep the momentum going!
  3. I just wish it wasn't 1pm - but with rates and temps it can still work...
  4. In a meeting and can't look myself but that's intriguing...
  5. Until 2016, WE are the Chicago Cubs... "Wait until next year"
  6. Just talked to my wife a few miles down the road from you and it's snowing there as well. All rain here at work for the past couple of hours.
  7. That would be a great finale - snow and then extreme cold. Is it too much to ask? I'm still intrigued...
  8. The cold coming this weekend is impressive. I wish we'd have fresh snow cover to maximize the overnight lows.
  9. It will be interesting to see if MU records any measurable snowfall. I work about 5 miles west of the campus and there was nothing on the lowlands in this area - me thinks it will go down as a trace.
  10. They bring a false sense of joy to some only to be replaced with sorrow and disappointment 90% of the time.
  11. Very true. I wasn't really invested in today that much mostly because the positive snow depth maps were all hideous. Just another reason why someone doesn't like those snow maps...they don't tell the whole story. Or at least an accurate one. That's all I will say as I do NOT want to lecture or act like a know it all - I certainly don't. But I do know not to trust snow maps. On to Saturday.
  12. Good stuff, and thank you so much! Here on top of Turkey Hill, we had only the slightest of coatings...more like a white haze actually. Plain rain even here now.
  13. Please report back on your findings. This is serous biz.
  14. Drover over Chickies about 45 minutes ago - snowing very hard on top of the hill with zero rain mixed near the summit, but nothing visible on the ground even at the top. (again, slightly dated info :))
  15. Couple of inches this morning possible at Whitetail?
  16. Just saw this map - I can tell you with certainty that in Lanco, based on my driving this morning, that is pretty much spot on! Higher hills of southern Lanco (including work) are getting some wet snow, and also the higher elevations of northern Lanco, but a lot of rain elsewhere.
  17. Maytown: 36.3 with a 80/20 rain/snow mix according to Mrs. Training Work: 35.4 with a 50/50 mix MU: they're currently reporting 40 and I'd assume all rain
  18. You are one of the only posters in the CTP area that got an Advisory (along with @Atomixwx@2001kx)
  19. Elliott steadfast on a coating to 1" outside of higher elevations.
  20. Saturday looks far more intriguing to me than tomorrow ever has. (and by that, I'm talking upside potential...we could easily see a minor, slushy accumulation tomorrow and nothing on Saturday, but Saturday's potential seems to merit some interest.)
  21. Were you flying into PHL, BWI, or MDT? Regardless, glad you got home safely. I literally was terrified of getting flipped over to worry about other things hitting me. I just checked PHL's observations for last evening - at 9:40pm (time we were on the bridge) the obs show wind gusts of 58mph. I imagine they were higher on top of the bridge?
  22. Yes sir. In complete agreement. I honestly expect very little to show itself as ground truth.
  23. If you're familiar - planes approach PHL from the north and are right beside I95. From the top of the bridge you have a clear shot at watching them land. We always enjoy the added "perk" especially at night time but I wasn't looking anywhere but in front of me last night. Most of the positive snow depth maps I'm seeing for tomorrow are really uninspiring - are the snow maps greatly exaggerating how much will actually accumulate? I guess we'll find out soon enough.
  24. In 40+ years of driving, never have I experienced the effect of wind on a car like I did last night on the Girard Point Bridge leaving the 76ers game. The crosswinds were insane - despite the fact that there was little traffic on the bridge, I don't think anyone was going more than 45mph. Everyone was holding on to their steering wheels for dear life.
