  1. Moon and some brighter stars were shining through diffuse clouds last night. Clear tonight, but might actually go below my 2023/2024 winter low of 3.4°.
  2. I remember leaving UML as the spring semester ended, and there was still a huge pile on the north side of the north parking garage were they had been pushing it off the structure. Always wondered how long that pile held out.
  3. 1.9" new for a total of 4.8" in Feb. and 46.3" for the season. Unless this longshot anafront thing that keeps popping up on models happens (to some snowy extent) late next week, I'd say that's going to do it for February.
  4. Town came by at about 1:30pm to plow the half inch of snow that was left at that point. Big difference in how this looked this morning.
  5. 1.9" for the total. Couldn't quite make it to 2". It's now melting so fast that water is just about pouring off the roof - just getting absolutely nuked.
  6. 1.8" at last measurement. Starting to wind down here. My town seems to have had the good sense not to try and plow the dirt road I live on. I'm sure I've jinxed that now...
  7. Is that a structural stone building I spy? Very cool. (Even if not, it's still very cool)
  8. Heavy in this band pushing through. Great snow growth - this is fairly high ratio stuff all things considered.
  9. Oh wow, you might make a run at 3". I'm only at 1.2" here. Figures that this would be a storm we bust "positive" on.
  10. 31.9° and 0.8" new. Looks like I'll be able to pass 1". Surprisingly passable snow too - decent growth and not terribly wet. Makes for a pretty morning.
  11. Oh come on, you can do better than that! Don't waste your posts repeating what someone just said. *Edit* What I mean to say is, use those posts wisely. You get how many per day? (This is a trap, don't answer!) *Edit #2* Sorry man, just giving you a hard time.
  12. 00z GFS bringing some anafront fun at like 150 hours. It really puts the "clown" in clown map. Very real solution, GFS/Pivotal.
  13. Latest HRRR (and a few others) tries to get that precipitation over Pennsylvania to us as the main event at around 5am... I'm using the term "main event" really loosely here. But yeah, the radar right now, sheesh.
  14. Light snow has commenced up here. Bad kind of storm to be on the east slope really, but it's a bad storm in general.
  15. 13.3° for the low this morning - Stratus is all frosted up. I don't know, I've got to be one of the biggest weenies around, but this cold weather sucks if it ain't gonna snow. I think maybe I'm starting to see the light. Bring on the warmth?
  16. 17.6° with diffuse cloud cover here right now, has the feel of a good winter storm approaching... instead, slop is on the menu. Hoping we get enough to cover the ugly on existing snow piles but not enough that it's really ever able to accumulate on roads. That'd be a "win" in my book.
  17. Snowpack is starting to get very disparate. 9 to 12 inches still in the flat part of the yard, but none on some of the south facing slopes. Gorgeous day though.
  18. GYX snowfall map as of 30 mins of posting just in case anyone is browsing/lurking and didn't get the memo (we ain't got much of a storm comin').
  19. Low of 7.7° this morning. Will be interesting to see if Saturday night/Sunday morning beats that. Guess I need to take up ice fishing or something.
  20. This wasn't on my radar, so thanks for the heads up! Comets offer a unique challenge in astrophotography in that their apparent motion with respect to the field of background stars is rather rapid. This makes it difficult to integrate imaging data that was taken over several minutes or even hours as the comet will have visibly "moved" in that time. Hard to stack images on top of one another when they are literally impossible to align!
  21. Yeah, looks that way. We're down to hoping for a miracle at this point.
  22. 18z Euro Clown for the curious. Nice to see a coherent swath at least.
  23. 18z GFS. Decent front end thump (comparatively), but doesn't really get the coastal going until wide right.
  24. Ah-ha! That's more like it ICON - give me a local jackpot (kinda) like you always do.
