Ask the people down in VA along the I95 corridor if the fast moving system yesterday limited the effects too much

For me the best warm day to snow is April Fools 1997. It was in the mid 50's here during the day and by about midnight there was 17" of glop on the ground. After a warm March and nearly snowless winter the soil temps were nearly 50* already and the trees were leafing out. It was a disaster...
-
Damn winter cold and such... My truck blew a critical coolant hose and it's pretty much disabled until I can deal with it. Unfortunately if I take it to a shop it would cost a couple thousand dollars just in labor Can someone order me up a week or so of 60 degree temps so I can do it in the driveway? Man I need a garage...

Welcome to Rob's better year thread Temp is down almost 10* already this morning with a very light N breeze. As the temp hit 45 the fog started to break, my guess is another degree or two and it will finally be gone.
-
The fog never broke all day, it lifted somewhat over open areas but over lakes and forested areas it stayed dense. Wet and soggy. Yuck. Happy New Years all
-
This fog is terrible. 200 foot visibility sux.You can hear things rotting away...
-
Aww, thanx for the input Mr Happy
-
It started as light sleet then went to a heavy freezing rain and sleet mix for a few minutes. After that it flurried for a little while and everything was all sparkly like a kids movie, that was cool. It didn't last long before it changed to rain
-
It flurried and grappled from the TZ bridge right down to about Westwood NJ while I was driving down this way. It's sorta clearing now at the Meadowlands.
-
Popped above and the worst of it washed away quickly. Now it's dense fog @ 33°. Beautiful...

I just went to take the garbage out, I got 3 feet and left the bag there because it's a solid block of ice so I turned around before I fell. 32/ENE2/RN-
-
I've got light rain falling and it's 29°. Everything not covered with snow was glazed in the first 2 minutes. Looks like fun
-
I'll get out with the ruler in a little while but it looks like a bit under 1" and it's still showing lightly. 24/NE2/SN-

Tough call on the temp, it varies by 5° in a half square mile area from 23-28, SSE 3-5 and snowing nicely. Good flake size and it's starting to accumulate.
-
Radar says it's snowing. It isn't.
-
Stayed warm and wet here. That's ok Drying nicely now with the sun through thin clouds.
-
So that icy map posted sort of rang true. It was probably one or two degrees too cold because the crunchy stuff only made it down to the road level (Rt 17) twice, when the road goes over 1500 feet. The icy areas forecasted on the map were but it was above the valleys. By taking 17 to 390 I was able to stay just south if the frozen precip and skirted it until we crossed I90 in Rochester. There's 1" of frozen garbage on the ground up here now.
-
37 with drizzle. Precip type radar shows it as frozen with snow pretty close. What's actually happening north and west of here? I'm about to get in the truck for a (long) drive.
-
Mmm yummy 62° with a nice SSW breeze. Got a bunch of car work done and gonna dive back in and do some more later. Driveway and patio are blown clean, yard stuff is piled and out of the way and... and...
-
How about west? I need to pick my kid up at Brockport because they have to clear out the dorms so I'm committed. The blue blob over Rt 17 looks like it might be slow going. Then Sunday looks like a slow ride home too. Why can't it be like the last few days...
-
Boy it's nice out there today.
-
Yeah this fog is the real deal. We're at the casino in Monticello on the 9th floor and I can't see the parking lot below me except when it downpours heavily and knocks it down for a minute. Heh, if anyone is out and about this afternoon you should come visit us at the holiday craft fair at Bethel Woods, look for the 'Looming Madness' booth.
-
The name sux though. Looking forward to warmer weather on Monday.
-
You think so? I like it. When I went over it last night with the towers wrapped in swirly, snowy, misty weirdness in the lights it was really artsy and cool looking. .2-.3" here. Looks nice.
-
Everything is nicely coated, .2 maybe .3". The roads were just starting to whiten when the snow stopped, now they look snowy and icy but it's just a half inch of salt lol
