  1. WeatherBug says 6-10". If I wasn't retired I'd be taking the day off work tomorrow.
  2. He must be on halliburton's payroll. Whatever, I'll take 5" of sierra cement at this point.
  3. Do you have a sunshield to keep temps close to absolute zero? Local Climo would improve if you had that. JWT is a good place to start.
  4. There's some lecture in there about knowing your Climo and putting your house up for sale to move to a snowier Climo but I totally understand and feel your pain. It totally sucks. Sometimes youre the fly and sometimes youre the windshield.
  5. 63F and a fire going strong. Benson is not impressed. It's going to be his first snow.
  6. Honestly I think I could do as good as a social media met and make money at it. Just parrot the model every so often and use big words. Amongst my friends I look like a genius for this storm and I don't know shit about weather.
  7. Still not a region-wide event?
  8. I was out moving firewood around getting ready for the storm and I am all sweaty, think I need to turn the AC on. Do I live in Denver now?
  9. Winter storm warning just hoisted! Was 3-5" but is now 5-7". Bring it on.
  10. Also a good point. At this point the sun angle is so high and rising we should expect it to melt anything short of steel. Eta, that's a joke BTW.
  11. Mind blown, I've never thought of conduction which is pretty embarrassing as an engineer. A cold rain right at 33F or somewhere close should take all the heat out of the soil. Then it's just losses due to snow hitting wet ground, not necessarily warm ground though.
  12. Good point, I agree on the pulsing. It's gotta push during the onset to build up a slush layer. If it comes and goes it ends up as an inch or two of slush. This is what happened during last winter's storm for us. Even during snowmageddon we had a solid inch of slush underneath.
  13. Can you point to a reference on the warm ground debunking? Not arguing, I'm genuinely interested in reading more on it. My experience is the warm ground makes a 1" layer of slush but on top of that it's all snow.
  14. Cantore just peed his pants
  15. Social media Aleet rule broken?
  16. Thanks dude. Birthday present from my wife. I know how to choose them.
  17. The GFS sniffed it out early, like the big ones normally are.
  18. Man it's been six years since snow like this, I can't recall when MBY has been jackpot in the models, maybe not at all in the past 17yrs. I need to take lots of screencaps because it's unlikely to happen again any time soon.
  19. Blade is on the Muck Truck and we're charging up.
