Also the “torch” is one day. Not like we got 9” then a week of 50. We got 9”, then 45 for one day two days after, then 10-20 below normal. It happens, I wouldn’t think this is so unusual.
They’re 15-20 below average, that’s always big cold. We can’t expect to have -10 every year. Ironically, today is the anniversary of our coldest temperature ever -22. That’s massive cold. But I’d say near 0 is always big cold.
Hopefully, we get a little something Wed-Thurs., then we can maybe sort out the weekend. I imagine the weekend would be determined by how far the artic front sags, as it would ride the zone it set up, or did I get that completely wrong, lol.
True, just by the nature of the storm, but definitely could turn to sleet after those cold temps if the uppers get flooded with warmth.
I'm not super confident for the weekend storm, though. Seems the arctic airmass would suppress it. Hopefully, I am wrong.
Ron Smiley said maybe an inch Sunday though.
I actually ignored the storm for awhile, because I saw how far south it was and figured it never make it up to us. Can't count it out this year I guess.
I think 6" should be warning regardless of storm duration, especially in the City, as they never clean streets, so it stays dangerous for long periods of time.
We got at around 7" on the ground, probably tough to measure due to some blowing around. Heavy to shovel though. Definitely don't need to go to the gym now.
