Take 90 to 87 rather than 390 and 17. Stay out of the hills and on the big roads.

And it has that wavering around for a few hours. This is looking pretty interesting. Guess I should go get some gas for the generator huh.

Wind and ice are the two things I don't really look forward to anymore. I don't need the problems or the danger.

On snap! Is that an old subway or bridge token?

I'm no good at math. I used to get my kids homework wrong when they were in second grade so the teacher told them to find someone else to help. I'm ok with it.

That's what I told my wife this morning, this one is more about the timing than most.

The sites on WU are generally private property and sometimes businesses and those are all developed spaces of some sort so will be warmer than 1/4 mile away where it's undeveloped. When you're looking for a difference of just a few degrees that's where you'll find it, developed vs undeveloped. Like I said, take a thermo and go for a walk, I bet you'll find what you're looking for.

I see a few 1s and 2s but it's between 4-7 up here on the hill. Gonna spend the day prepping for the flizzard.

Questionable or no info going in can't give a proper solution, can it? I have a feeling that if you went out into the pine barrens and put thermometers in some of the hollows away from hard surfaces like runways you'd find slightly lower temps. Of course the temps balance out quickly, a little bit of mixing moves the air around and up goes the temp.

Yeah? No. I was gonna get one of those 10x20 tent things but my wife wasn't too hip to the idea. I gotta figure out something soon because having no car really sux.

Maybe you have some garage space I could borrow for a week or so. I have a good friend who's a high level mechanic that lives up there and he offered to help but only if I have a garage to use. I'll bring beer You are always welcome here. Consider it like that cozy lounge where your buds are hanging out with chilled cocktails.

Y'all keep doing this to yourselves time after time, year after year... There's a reason models can only give us an idea of what's to come more than about 3 days out. Until all of the factors are in a zone where they can be accurately sampled the data is insufficient to lead a more accurate solution. I see that they were flying off the west coast getting samples earlier and the result was nearly instant. Maybe someday we'll have a better way to get accurate data into the models sooner but until then all you're doing is making yourselves nut(tier).

Depends on how much you enjoy mud and slush.

I wouldn't complain if that happened, I'd be bummed to miss a good one but if it warms up next week like everyone is talking about the sting of not dealing with mud and slush won't be too acute My truck has been DOA for over a month now and I need a stretch of warm and dry weather to deal with it. I'd take it to a shop but the only ones that want to do this job are backed up for 2-3 months so I'm stuck doing it solo. Anyone here ever pull a supercharger off a Jaguar motor want to come help?

Yeah but you're only seeing the numbers after the fact. You know that being "in it" can be a much different experience than it would seem to have been "by the numbers". We had some events that were more significant, cold that was deeper and more pervasive, some ice events that don't even show up and, on LI in particular, it just generally felt like winter more than it does now. I'm curious, does the lake at Grant Park still freeze up sufficiently for skating? That used to be a really popular place for us kids to go for weeks straight every year.

@BxEngineHaven't been but we will probably take a ride up to check it out one day this year. I keep trying not to get too invested in this potential but I kinda can't help it sometimes. Even if you cut the Euro down by 75% it's still a nice storm if you think outside the last ~20 years. Setting your expectations low is a good way to get through much of the current world we live in.

A couple more tenths here. Keepin' it fresh and white...

Yay another 3 cents

I have steady light snow now too. 25/24/SE3/SN-

Umm? No. More than a few minutes inside the benchmark and I ice/sleet/rain. I would much rather you guys get fringed than I get fkd

Because it shows what they want it to

And now it's flurrying and backlit by a low angle sun against a dark grey cloud backdrop. It's all crystally and sparkly

Maybe you should try napping more often? Ya know, a little power nap around model release times... Couldn't hurt

Hey I'll take this, it's been beautiful all night. Twinkly, slowly accumulating snow falling slowly then enhanced towards the end with bigger flakes taking their time getting to the ground. Now, the bright moon is flickering through windows in the fast moving clouds making the air sparkle for a moment at a time.

It's still snowing here. There's easily .3 and it may be .4. This enhancement at the end is pretty cool as the flakes got big and fluffy a little while ago.
