Dale City has had 4.5 inches of rain so far this new year. Buda TX just passed you guys in total rain this year, we are now at 5.75. We got 3 inches 2 days ago and are now being drowned by an Arctic front, have had 2.25 inches just today and there's a LOT more where that came from! Vast pools of water are everywhere! I drenched my new shoes just tryin to get to the damn car! We are getting an early start to rain totals down here! Usually winters are dry here. We're getting some thunder and lightning too. Wow February is acting like mid May in terms of rain lol.

I still want you all over there to get 'New Englanded' by an 18 to 24 inch snow!

I am under a Winter Storm Warning for a Stupid Ice Threat, too. Tons of rain and arctic winds, changing to ZR and IP later tonight.

I was only 2 years old in 1966. I was probably living with my mom up in Palatine Illinois! Now THAT's a Snow Town!

This topic needs some new juju. Get whomever brings good luck with snow, to start a new February medium long range topic stat.

You should move to western Maryland, Garrett County is best, for more snow! That place is the Jay Peak VT of the Mid Atlantic! You'd get buried ALIVE in snow every winter!

This is unbelievable. Very late Wed night into Thursday, a very strong Arctic front may cause the rain to mix with frzra and sleet then change to sleet and possibly bring up to half an inch of sleet/frzra right into my backyard. Its going to be VERY cold by our standards, highs in the upper 20s with north winds gusting to 40 mph and lows well down into the teens, in a place where 61 is the normal high and 43 is the normal low. If we get half an inch of sleet, I will be at 70 percent of normal climo for freezing precip in one winter season. My poor plants are dying. I was trying so hard to cover them. This next front will dash my hopes after weeks of trying to fight it. I loved the tomato plant, the chocolate mint and spearmint herbs so much! I tried so hard to save them from the cold fronts! Pipes will freeze, I'll have NO water at all, and revolving blackouts will chill the house and enforce the freezing pipes. This place just isnt optimized for Siberian fronts. I'll be forced to drink creek water like a horse! Larry Cosgrove wrote up a good description of what happened on "Frozentine Day" 2021 lol. I am not sure I want THAT again! You have the slow ejection of a large disturbance west of Baja California, possibly in two pieces, and the digging of a 500MB trough associated with a vortex with a core of Siberian air. If this sounds vaguely familiar, it is because there is some resemblance to the mid-February debacle of 2021, where a bitter cold regime streaked rapidly southward into Texas, concurrent with a phasing of the Arctic, polar, and subtropical jet streams into a very cold, full-latitude 500MB trough that reached Mexico and the adjacent Gulf, and dumped unheard of amounts of ice and snow on the Lone Star State and the Mid-South.

Stock up. This is it.

Even my back yard in Buda TX may pick up 1-2 inches lol. Thats about 270 percent of normal climo!

That's not greek. Thats easy, Aesop fables level stuff.

I want to dig all that snow so bad. I want to pile it so high, and roll in it at 3am in the middle of the night when I know everyone is asleep lol. Man I want to go over there right effin NOW, and DIG SNOW!

You have made my day forever!

Yes, you will!

That top pic, is now gracing my laptop. I got TEN copies. Sure I'm a severe snow weenie

Wow guys, magnificent storm! Enjoy!

George remember yesterday sometime you said someone might hit 40? If someone gets 36, you would not have been far off.

Nice storm folks!

Yeah the gradient will probably be heartbreaking for some. Man this storm is makin me remember how much I REALLY LOVE SNOW - I wanna fly over to NE Maine and watch it lol

I wish the storm STALLED - then began to retrograde southwest, then the sub got into the deform, for about 30 hours.. Sure I'm a snow weenie at heart

Can't even imagine what BOS'll be like with 4 inch an hour rates, and 70 mph gusts - it'll be a straight on MILKSHAKE FROTH, visibility will be completely shot to hell - The WHITE HURRICANE of 2022. A snow enthusiast could easily get disorientated in that situation - get lost only yards from his door - easily freeze to death because of the wind chill and the blowing snow literally blinding him! (I spelled disoriented that way intentionally, just love Bear Grylls to no end, he says disorientated, and I would just LOVE to get disorientated in the blowing snow!)

Jayyy whats this thing gonna be doin around 1130am CT?

ADMINS - Make this man a MET asap!

Everything is well. I am very sorry about your friend who also loved the snow. Enjoy the storm, looks to be pretty massive!
