After a 10 minute search through here to figure out the acronym LBSW, I think I understand. For those "in the know" can you confirm that it refers to a storm which has "peaked" to the southwest vs LBNE in which the storm "peaks" to the NE? Thus a LBSW has peaked to the SW and is past its height once it gets here. Thanks in advance

Is the pill Tractor Viagra?

Sorry I hear that word and think of this everytime:

It never really fells like Winter for me until a SREF plume average comes in over 40 inches for a storm for me.

B as in Bust?

Just as long as it doesn't end up with the name Lucy ...

.6 overnight, measurable but so fluffy you could see through it.

-11 here off of a low of -15

"It is not the lack of heat which makes today cold, it is the lack of humidity" - no one

I remember those cold days of Jan 16/17 2009. We were living in Bethlehem. One of those two days I went to Lancaster via Whitefield. When I got to Lancaster the bank thermometer read -34. I got out in the parking lot and it was actually very comfortable in the early morning sunshine with no wind. It is already -6f here, based on the massive number of cars heading north on 89 tonight it is going to be a big weekend at the Vermont Ski resorts.

-11 at the house when I left. Warmest I saw on the drive to Burlington was -9 coldest was -15. Pretty uniform over the elevations.

You would think that Eyewall leaving and taking his jinx with him would have cancelled Phin out.

I don't know about that. It seems pretty much locked in and agreed that there will be a cutter between Dec 23rd and 25. Couple details still to be worked out. Not bad for 8090 hours out.

IF we start a Grinch Storm 2020 thread right now there is a pretty good chance it materializes (and few folks would be disappointed if it did not).

I got somewhere between 6 and 10 inches. I will call it 8 inches. There was so much drifting this morning that any elevated surfaces were being scoured clean. No rain or mix but we did get to 34. When we did the wind stopped but the snow did not. Some dry sections but no drizzle.

Black Lab. All the furniture colors were designed in a time when we had light colored goldens. Oh and she sheds.

I tried putting my dog out about half an hour ago. The wind was so strong she ran out about 3 steps turned and ran back in.

-13 here

I wanna be sedated

January 28, 1994 perhaps.

Just got a Winter Storm Watch: https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=VTZ005&warncounty=VTC007&firewxzone=VTZ005&local_place1=Burlington VT&product1=Winter+Storm+Watch&lat=44.4836&lon=-73.2114#.YeHdJP7MJPY For the Winter Storm Watch, heavy snow possible.

(Moving this from the other thread to here) I am going over for me because, for some reason, it feels like I see good snows on both MLK Day and January 17. With it being both, I am irrationally expecting to bust high.

Up here the surface looks a smidge west vs 0Z: \
