  1. It’s getting dark outside, and it’s only 1:33. Pretty gloomy. It feels like 5:00 or so.
  2. I’m a him! Thanks for the time. I’m Glad My amounts were low, no matter the quality of the snow that’s fallen.
  3. I’m not sad or upset or anything. Just eager. I conveyed the wrong mood in that post. This is our year down here apparently.
  4. Currently 39° with the WSWatch. You all are lucky... you get to see snow, and I have to wait down here in Richmond for probably 1”... I’ll still take it, but wish I didn’t have to wait.
  5. Would precipitation here be freezing rain? How shallow should the freezing air near the surface be in order to make sleet / freezing rain? I understand for sleet the freezing air should be deeper near the surface, I just don’t know generally how much.
  6. I’m excited for whatever we get. Finally my first chance for a day off too.
  7. Is ice seeming like the more prominent thing with this next one than snow? I kind of get that feeling, but can’t really tell. 12z Euro was on the snowy side.
  8. Tell me about it! It’s awful to see, but I’ll ignore the amounts because they’re not great at this point. I’ll take the 5” though.
  9. Looking icy for down here. This is going to be the one that knocks the power out... Or, the GFS is too warm and we get snow... Hopefully the latter. I want to go look at past ice storms that have happened in the area.
  10. If time is money, is an ATM a time machine?
  11. I could tell an ice storm had probably happened even though I didn’t know for sure, only because the trees were in pretty bad shape. It looked pretty crazy.
  12. It must be amazing up there! Is everything staying plowed decently if you’ve had the ability to see?
  13. I don’t think I know the rules for snowfall... what is necessary to be eliminated?
  14. These clumps of flakes are falling... massive! Dime sized? It only gets heavier. Watching them explode on impact is fun. If this were a snowball fight, anyone outside would lose.
  15. I’m guessing what’s falling is wet snow that occasionally clumps together. Kind of heavyish.
  16. Rain and a little sleet so far. This was a bust down here in my opinion, and I was worried about that.
  17. This is annoying not having the Wakefield radar up because of that maintenance.
  18. How far up can the temperature be above freezing before it starts to melt? I’ve seen some snow at really warm temperatures before, really surprising. Maybe it depends on a bunch of things?
  19. Wasn’t it pretty warm before that December storm 2 years ago too?
  20. No. Scared! Terrified. But i’ll forget everything once it starts falling.
  21. It’s better than last year. There wasn’t much on the ground last year up there. Totally different world if you compare it to then.
  22. Odd right now. I could definitely see a Winter Storm Warning being issued later at least for the west end in case we happen to get any heavier bands. Interested to see what happens!
  23. For future reference, Is it possible to save a map from SV to your photos on mobile?
  24. Frick... At least warn us next time. Not everyone was sitting down. Hopefully the rain-snow line isn’t that far north. It’s always a battle with that thing. If it could come south a little bit, we’d be good down here.
  25. Winter Storm Watch now in place. They got ripped a new one on instagram by all the students. They then say “Well if it happened on a monday, we’d give you a snowday.” And then that sunday after the snow had fallen, they posted roughly saying: “Snow days will still be a thing if conditions allow for it. We also think the joy of a snow day is important blah blah blah”
