  1. It’s wild.. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bigger discrepancy between asphalt and other surfaces with a storm, including late season daytime paste bombs. close to 7” on my deck board, but the road in my development is barely covered. This will also likely go down as the biggest difference I’ve witnessed between here and mdt for a single event. Weird storm. .
  2. It’s delivering the goods about 5 miles NE of Harrisburg.. we just got a special weather statement indicating up to 3”/hour in spots.. I’ve picked up an additional 1.5 since midnight. .
  3. I guess we lucked out with that initial band extending from west of the river over this way. Already 2” on the deck here .
  4. Nice flake size from the get-go here in Linglestown, ramped up pretty quickly. Going to take the doggo for a late night stroll. Beautiful. Good luck all! .
  5. Now over 5” on the deck here in Linglestown even with some likely compaction. Beautiful. .
  6. Amidst the talk of memorable events of recent years, I almost forgot to wish a Happy Anniversary to the record-holder.. Time truly flies.
  7. I'll split the hog with you on the 9th. That's my bday. Also the NWS's bday! A crippling triple-phaser for the ages is all I ask for each year. Or cash.
  8. Agreed. And I think this game reiterated that when the niners are missing even one single weapon on offense, they kind of look like paper tigers, pretty mundane.. their defense is solid but not special.. I don’t think their game against the Ravens was a fluke.. if it comes down to a re-match I think they get handled again. .
  9. It was a rough commute into the city from Linglestown this morning, even waiting until after 9 am to head in.. Was a little surprised with the main road conditions given the fluff factor.
  10. My co-worker is running in the Bandera 100K marathon down there this weekend. Looks like they'll miss the Arctic shot by a day or so.. I can't imagine running a 100k in a year let alone 12 hours... then add bone-chilling cold to the mix, that would've felt more like the Iditarod.
  11. Amen. Nice event verbatim with no mixing concerns. i think many would take the tradeoff of less high-end potential for a pure snow event that sticks around. i want to take my nieces sledding without sleet crust or cold wet mud creeping into the equation like many storms in recent years.
  12. Indeed.. It's getting hard to justify buying season passes.. i stopped two years ago. having to thread the needle to get down to Roundtop on days when conditions are half decent gets old.. i'll still get down there at every opportunity, but now I don't feel the pressure to go on crappy nights just to get my moneys worth out of the pass.
  13. Even though its just a butt-ton of rain, I'm still weirdly excited to track this system and see increasing model consensus for a shellacking.
  14. Ditto, worst I've experienced to this point. Once things got grid-locked it was game-over.. i remember so many vehicles just spinning their wheels on any type of incline.. just no ability to gain momentum. I considered pulling off into a parking lot and walking home the last 3 miles as I had a hungry pup at home. Probably the only snowstorm I didn't fully enjoy in my life.
  15. Was that the commute-a-geddon storm that way over-performed with heavy mid-day rates? I think HIA had ~8" on the books for that one but I don't recall if that was 2018 or 19. I just remember it taking 3 hours to get home for what is usually a 20 minute commute.
  16. Agreed. Distraction gone at least. Guess we have to wait until the trade deadline in Feb. to see if Morey's plan to flip the accumulated draft picks for an impact player comes to fruition.
  17. Almost a carbon copy of last year.. tear through the wild card round, knock off the braves behind great pitching and red-hot bats.. look unbeatable at home.. then just can’t sustain it and go ice cold when it matters most… Harper, Turner, castellanos brutally cold to end the series. Baseball is a funny game. .
  18. Feeling both of these simultaneously. This will be my inner-dialogue for the next 12 hours.
  19. Pretty insane lightning display here in Linglestown.. I’m a storm enthusiast but gotta admit I nearly jumped out of my chair a few times with the point blank strikes. .
  20. GFS is a relentless scorcher. Never enjoy seeing those deep pink 850 temp anomalies on tropical tidbits but they set up shop for pretty much the entire run. I need one of those emergency eyewash stations from high-school Chemistry class after looking at that. Euro was similar last night. Still hope we see some back-down as we get closer. Would compromise with the board heat-misers on the CMC's voice of reason solution. .
  21. There’s about an hour window in the morning where I can embrace that as the caffeine and taurine peak in my system.. then back to the introvert enclave.
  22. Maybe it will keep the handful of perpetual small-talkers from getting too close and derailing my afternoon. Skunks got something right evolutionarily. .
