  1. It's high time to head for anyplace west of Hillsboro on Rt 9. Great times!
  2. I know. 1 or 2 inch thump then mix issues, maybe full on liquid later. I take. (As modeled so far, I realize we are still about 6-7 days out.)
  3. That is a lot more than a car topper in Dale City. Anyone gonna stay up for the 12z?
  4. Anyone remember the ice storms of 1994? I forget the dates now, but freezing rain at 19 degrees that changed to sleet, and then that sleet poured and poured down, three inches worth then it glaciated. It was a real challenge to walk on that stuff. It would hit 45 degrees and would hardly melt. There was another ice storm, I think this one started as snow, 1-2 inches also in 1994, then it changed to sleet then just plain freezing rain, that fell most of that night, it piled up about an inch deep. Then it fell to about 6 degrees and froze that glacier nice and tight. I dont think anyone was walking much that morning after. It was slippery as heck, even I was having trouble trying to walk on that sheer ice sheet. For us, 1994 was the winter of the Ice.
  5. March 13 1993. It snowed much of the night, an inch per hour we had 8 inches of pure snow on the ground, then it changed to sleet, very heavy sleet, that hurt , because the sleet balls were so large! Then Ugh. It changed to rain, that became heavy, and it POURED for hours! Then it mixed with sleet later, then with snow, then went over to all snow. The 8 inches that fell earlier froze up, and three more inches of snow blew around on top of the glacier. Anyone from Dale City remember Godwin Middle? The back of it was like a miniature ski resort. The hill was icy as all hell, I had this old beat up plastic sled, I was sliding down that glacier amid the strong winds swirling falling snow and wind blown snow off the ice all around! I must have slid down that thing fifty times! It was so damned COLD, with that wind! It was so fast, that ice hill, and really sharp, if you didnt have gloves you got cut up something terrible! IF only we had stayed all snow! I heard some of the mountains got three feet of snow with monstrous drifts!
  6. February 19, 1979. I think there were 24 inches on the ground. I was staying at Watergate at Landmark with my dad. I was 14 or 15. We were on the 10th floor. Those buildings were all 20 stories. I looked down on a landscape I did not recognize. When I got down I could hardly believe it! It was a scene straight out of the Arctic. I tried to walk in it but the snow was just too damn deep. Once I got my hands on a shovel, I started digging people out. Man that was a Blast!
  7. GB16, Jan 22 to 23, I got 27 inches of snow. Let me tell you: I got my fill of digging that snow. First I had to dig our car out of a 4 foot drift. Then the neighbors started up. I had been running my mouth about snow for years. All the neighbors said you wanted this snow, Jeb! We want Jebman Standards. Well, I got enough snow. It took five days to dig them all out. I made some money. That, was a hell of a LOT of snow!!!!
  8. Dallas will get creamed in the snow at Washington.
  9. This cutter washing away the snow can be mitigated by simply grabbing a Jebman Shovel then piling up the snow embarrassingly high on the north side of sunlight blocking objects. Pack it down then pile it way up. That's what I would do if I was there. Pile up snow like The Jebman!
  10. Such as a slow moving snowstorm. Or even an outright capture, which could promote very long-duration heavy snows.
  11. This is definitely gonna be good. I'm gonna lose a LOT of free time from now on up in here. NO effin' way I ever get any sleep tonight. I wonder why.
  12. I have a hunch, a WAG, that the track is going to end up somewhere in between the west track, and the more east track. After livin' there for 55 years, you kind of tend to get a feel for these things. Another gut feeling, would have me heading most decisively to western Berkeley County in West Virginia. With a shovel in one hand and a yard stick in the other.
  13. Typhoon Tip in the new england sub thinks one of the storms is good for snow here in the Mid atl.
  14. That would help the badly ravaged ski resorts up there, especially Sunday River.
  15. Cold air misses Texas thank goodness but it targets the mid atl
  16. Count me in. I am now severely addicted to models.
  17. Classic blasting huge aggregates past the streetlights stuff.
  18. The weeklies ARE really good!
  19. This has always been a crisis cardiac, late stage bipolar hobby. I am a snow happy super manic one day til someone posts the SER again then I am one hell of a depressed angry we are all gonna DIE kind of deb. And the whole doggone sub is jumping off of a FIERY ledge, straight into a terrifying white hot dumpster fire in which we are all tearing each other to pieces. And The Reaper dies of a heart attack because he has way too many souls to fookin reap at one time. Yoda just posted the ICON, N VA missed out. Damn. Here I phuckin' go again. I should have known......... What was I even thinking? It's the G.D. base state. And, down, down, DOWN! goes the entire sub, by tomorrow morning Tracker has to shut down the thread. Hell of a fight, WWIII even, in the sub. Over model runs. Just as I was starting to have a little hope. Just a little hope...... Look, I kept my expectations on a HELL of a SHORT leash, I expected a car topper in Dale City on 1/7. Dashed to DEATH, on the Rocks, by the phuckin' ICON. Stormchaser Chuck and I go fifteen rounds over the validity of the frackin' weeklies and that sets off the WAR (no pun intended), Chuck whoops my sorry old man 8ss. It's high time for an EPIC deb Manifesto.......
  20. Nope Scraff. Back to BOURBON. We need to hit up the good stuff.
