... And you dial 936-1212 and then after a few seconds your wife picks up on the other phone and gleefully shouts “Caught ya!!!”

On a laptop, I see a poster’s location. On an iPhone many times the poster reports an ob and says “here” but I don’t know where “here” is. Is there a setting I’m missing on my phone version of AmWx to show poster’s location? Thx! Footnote/Gripe: it would be nice if folks would state where they actually are instead of putting their zip code. Just my $0.02, keep the change!

Totally agree about shoveling snow this week. I had outpatient surgery yesterday and it was still super-simple sweeping snow off the cars and clearing driveway. Temp at dawn here today was 27, then 25 by 8am and 24 at 11am.

I woke up to steady snow after 1am. Noticed it stuck everywhere early on except in the streets. Probably the roads had warmed up as air temps were above freezing during the day.

Slightly over-performed in my part of Columbia with about 4.5" Temp has fallen a bit from 27 at dawn ..... to 25 at 7:45am.

Columbia 38 / 18

My first “All Under 30” day this winter. High 29.5 Low 15.5

Temp bottomed out at 15.5 Tuesday morning, coldest of the season so far. Had 6-1/4" snow IMBY yesterday on east side of Columbia.

6-1/4" IMBY on east side of Columbia. Temp at 1:15pm with glaring sunshine is 27.9°.

Just shoveled. Wet snow, the worst kind. 6" plus change, it appears.

10:45am Columbia: 28.8° with about 5” snow (unofficially) and still snowing.

9am Columbia: Eyeballing about 3" OTG. Temp has dropped from 6am 32.4 to 9am 31.3. My side street caved after dawn, between 7-8am.

8am 1/3/22, Columbia: 32.4 degrees and eyeballing about 1" (maybe a bit more) OTG. My side street has just caved in past 1/2 hour.

If everything is covered white I’ll claim victory, given where we were 48 hrs ago. Don’t care if it’s 1-2” vs 3-5”. Just want it to look like winter, is all. ☃️

A few ice pellets in Columbia mixed in with drizzle but NBD.

9pm Columbia 35.5° with a sprinkly rain.

36.0 / 22.1 IMBY on east side of Columbia.

Zippo observed imby. Last time I saw decent snow was in August on Mt. Blanc. Taken from cable car, 12,600’ ASL

Virga ++ 34.6°

Wind gusts just reached my side of Columbia.

We do non-events well. My bar for success is having flakes in the air.

East side of Columbia: 28.4 pre-sunrise at 6:45am 11/20. Lowest of the season.

Tuesday morning snippet for extended forecast: EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO EXPAND IN COVERAGE OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE COUNTRY FROM SUNDAY ONWARD IN ASSOCIATION WITH ONE OR MORE SURFACE LOWS/FRONTAL SYSTEMS. IT IS TOO EARLY TO RESOLVE DETAILED EFFECTS FROM LOW PRESSURE THAT MAY BE NEAR THE EAST COAST BY NEXT TUESDAY BUT SIGNIFICANT RAIN/SNOW AND STRONG WINDS COULD BE POSSIBLE. AT THIS TIME THE RELATIVELY HIGHER POTENTIAL FOR MEANINGFUL SNOW EXTENDS FROM THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS THROUGH INTERIOR NEW ENGLAND. THE BROAD CYCLONIC CIRCULATION AND COLD AIR MAY PRODUCE SOME LAKE EFFECT/ENHANCEMENT AS WELL. EASTERLY FLOW FROM LATE WEEK THROUGH THE WEEKEND MAY PROMOTE PERIODS OF RAIN OVER THE SOUTHERN/EASTERN PARTS OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA. MUCH OF THE EASTERN U.S. WILL SEE BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY WITH SOME HIGHS 10F OR MORE BELOW NORMAL ON FRIDAY. ANOTHER SURGE OF CHILLY AIR WILL LIKELY BRING HIGHS OVER THE EAST BACK DOWN TO 5-15F BELOW NORMAL NEXT MONDAY-TUESDAY. ANOMALIES COULD TREND COLDER DEPENDING ON THE ULTIMATE DEPTH OF THE UPPER TROUGH CROSSING THE REGION.

After the past 3 mornings with a low of 34 IMBY on east side of Columbia, bottomed out at 31.9 Saturday morning -- so bring on Indian Summer!
