Mammoth Mountain is already makin' snow! It's 28 degrees and they are gettin ready for the 2023-24 ski season! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/unbound-main-park

It's 46 frigid degrees with a wicked northerly wind. It's starting to rain again. What I wouldn't give right now, for just one 100 degree day and dry sunny weather. It's wet, muddy, windy as heck and BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR !!!!!!!!!! El Nino is already getting old. Lmao

Models are trending colder with the Sunday front. I really do not want highs in the upper 30s on Monday with 33mph northerly wind gusts. It will also be rainy and drizzly. I prefer 83 with 65 dewpoints and a nice southeasterly breeze.

Get well and feel much better soon!

Yeah, at least I am safe. I dont want to drown from getting swept off of a low water crossing. Tonight I DID get out - and did pretty well! Almost as if I may have made up for last night somehow. We got 3 inches of rain overnight. It FINALLY arrived at 530am lol. We got 1.6 earlier this week. Now we are up to 33 inches on the year. Mom's back yard is a quagmire. Weeds are erupting in my yard and once again I am down on my knees pulling weeds frantically! More showers may come Friday and Sunday especially with that early Arctic Front. EDIT: OUCH! NWS said we may only hit 41 degrees Monday with 25 mph northerly winds on top of it and isentropic rain/drizzle rooted in the 850 layer to boot! Man that is COLD as heck for us! It was only early October we were still 98! We're gonna be THIRTY SIX frackin' degrees below normal!

Many people are going to suffer horribly from this El Nino. It has already been seen in Acapulco with the unbelievable strengthening of Otis. They had no warning at all. Weather forecasters should be totally embarrassed. Tonight, I got snuckered in really bad by this weather system to my west. I was so scared, horrified of being caught in a deep rushing flood as I drove by one of hundreds of low water crossings, that I decided not to go out on my beloved deliveries. Only to find out that the weather system to our west has not moved a g-ddamned inch all night! I just missed out on what would probably have been one of the greatest delivery nights of my entire lifetime! That's not the worst of it though. The worst of it is some other shmuck got all my orders tonight, because I was too damn SCARED of drowning in a so-called rainstorm that the National Weather Service got wrong as sin! Well here I am, all disappointed, missed a whole night of deliveries, and I am high and FRACKING DRY!! Isnt it like the Texas NWS to completely fruck up per usual! Every one of those posers need to go back to elementary school! Texas is incapable of forecasting weather down here. That system never moved one frackin' INCH in 8 hours! Not ONE INCH east! And I missed a whole night of deliveries! And someone else got all the money I would have made tonight, IF I had known what a monumental fruck up Austin NWS is and always has been for at least the past 30 years! I dont care about rain, I love delivering, especially at 5am in pitch black dangerous neighborhoods like southeast DC. I am the very BEST delivery person the entire world has ever heard of, except in rainstorms. Because of the hundreds of low water crossings I have to cross. That's why I got so scared of going out tonight. The ground is very wet, they forecasted 1-3 inches with 4-6 inches in spots. The weather system in question is still about 70 miles to my west and I missed out on an entire night of delivering. I like delivering food far better than getting to watch a 70 inch snowstorm bury Washington DC.

It is snowing and blowing at Palisades Tahoe! Check out the 8200' Scope! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Wow, just like midwinter! Snow is really flying at Palisades! Get your season tickets now!

Or an eighteen wheeler chock full of Faces, thousands of Faces. Faces 6 inches in diameter.

Yeah Otis sure redefined RI for us, lol. Tropical Storm to 165 mph Cat 5 with catastrophic gusts to 200 mph in 12 hours. Anyone know if iCyclone was down there recording the storm in Acapulco? Josh is an international, intercontinental hurricane chaser. THAT, would be some intriguing footage for sure!

Darn it. I can't even go out and do delivery tonight, because I know there are numerous low water crossings where I drive at night and these places are wet as heck from recent rainfall. El Nino is bringing even more rain tonight. Otis just HAD to go from a tropical storm to a Cat 4 hurricane in under 12 hours, and we are getting upper level moisture from Otis. This is getting ridiculous. We dont need no more Pacific hurricanes, enough is already enough! I am sick of Nino already. Hays County is already under a flood watch, as 1-3 inches of rain on top of what we already got in the past three days are forecast, with some communities getting 4-6 inches. This is NO TIME FOR AN OVERACHIEVING STORM. We need to dry out real bad already. To add even more woes, Sunday night will bring frigid mid January conditions with high temperatures potentially only in the middle 40s for Monday! With freezing cold northerly winds! I can't even find my winter coat! Whatever happened to highs around 77? Thats the NORMAL high temperature for Buda this time of year. This is no time for an overachieving Arctic front.

Palisades Tahoe got 3-4 inches of snow today! Check out the 8200' Scope! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Its a cool 27 degrees!

Good for you! I am so happy you had a good time! How about those Ravens!!!!!!

Pouring rain. Working on 2 inches since last night. Hello, El Nino.

I will never walk a snow declaration back. EVER. I don't think I want a billion year magnitude rain river after all. Just one inch of rain in a week. For 135 consecutive weeks. Friend of mine came by today, we went to where my car was, he patched that tire right up. Guy is a regular MacGyver. Took the car back home, covered it up. It's raining but I don't want a flood. We already got one inch overnight. It needs to clear up, dry out then we can have a half inch of rain on Thursday. I am a little bit more careful what I wish for. On the other hand I wish at least thirty BECS-magnitude blizzards on the Washington Metropolitan Region this winter.

You guys are never gonna believe this. My car is 13 miles away. I had a flat. Mom brought me home. The car roof leaks bad. We are getting hit by that rain I said I wanted. The Norma moisture and the darn trough are coalescing. I wish I had been careful about what I wished for. I am frantically praying for the rain to miss us. What have I done?

Ravens will get better.

My favorite place on Earth, is now Cherrapunji in India. Winds transport moisture up against mountains and they get ~1000 inches per year. I would never run out of water.

Texas is much drier than Virginia. We are all hoping and praying for rain, because next summer is progged to be worse than 2023's was. Maybe we should get the Native Americans in Oklahoma to come down here and do a three day rain dance festival.

You can take that to the bank, with fifty percent interest. Mid Atlantic is in for a massive treat, with weather weenies flying all over the place!

I am becoming increasingly suspicious this winter, of what may well turn out to be a bone dry El Nino for Texas all winter, resulting in a catastrophically bone dry Spring 2024 and then a truly desperate bone dry Summer 2024, with ground water supplies completely drying out and outright wars over water breaking out. Right now we have an unbelievable influx of people moving in from all over the country, in addition to folks coming north from lovely southern locales. It's going to change. Once everyone gets on city water, and the Colorado River dries up, there is going to be a massive Gaza-like exodus to anyplace that gets regular rain, like Florida. Or New Orleans. Mid Atlantic is on track for lots rain trending down into mix then heavy snows throughout the Winter of 2023-24 then the so-called spring of 2024. I used to live up there. You guys get every single storm that smashes into the CONUS. In fact the Mid Atlantic may be 400 percent above normal for precip into the Summer of 2024. That figure may turn out to be ridiculously conservative. This Nino is going to dump and dump and dump on the Eastern Seaboard. It is already happening. Western Europe is also getting hit and will continue to be extremely hard hit this winter and next spring. But the inconvenient Truth over time, is that the Southwest IS TRENDING MUCH DRIER. I'd happily pay higher taxes in order to get a billion year atmospheric river right into Hays County where I live. I want moisture from both the South Pacific and the Caribbean feeding in and generating endless training thunderstorms and huge deep orange returns about eight hundred miles long with highly efficient rains that just keep on coming and coming and Central Texas is in the news for billion year flooding, with insane blocking that just keeps the storm process anchored over Texas for many fun days and nights! I'd love to see Rt 1626 and Rt 967 under 45 feet of floodwaters. Thats right where I live, and it is dry as a frackin' Martini. I am crying out desperately for a George BM-magnitude rain event, and even for MULTIPLE George BM-magnitude rain events.

But right now, WE in Texas are getting demolished by an autumnal heat wave! It is 96 degrees along with a 43 dewpoint. Humidity is 16 percent. Tomorrow may be hotter and will likely challenge long-standing records. TODAY might end up challenging long-standing records. EDIT: It's 97 degrees with a 41 dewpoint. Feels like 93. Humidity is 14 percent. This feels like Lubbock, Texas weather, lol.

You are gonna get it. That place will get demolished by torrential deep snow!

Anyone have a look at Western Europe? They are absolutely getting destroyed by a HUGE rainstorm!!

And I thought I was a snow weenie!

Not only do long range models indicate troughs in the East this winter, but you guys have been troughing a good bit all YEAR lol! Troughs plus an active subtrop jet and timing well with cold air = Memorable Mid Atlantic Winter. Lots of snow and sore backs and fights for parking spots and shouting angrily at plow operators for leaving 6 foot snow berms in your driveways repeatedly, that freeze ultra hard like avalanche snow in Alta Utah, that you then get to chip thru with a pick, for hours and hours. Strap yourselves in, hell of a ride incoming!
