It definitely snowed, but the Mauna Loa ob is still reported as "M" as far as I can see.

So that means they are ahead of BOS for the season too right?

Now even Hawaii is stealing our snow!

Was surprised to wake up to 16 degrees at 5:30.  Effective cold drain overnight.

Editing Help Needed!

If the price is legit and your skills are complete, I need an editor to go through my posts on AmericanWX and ground them in reality, there are sometimes 293 posts per day if there is a chance of flurries on Cape Cod, MA, USA, so it is legit fantasy.

But but people here bitch when they put down salt. Fact is it save injuries and death so they have to deal with a little salt BFD. Constant whining and complaining about anything and everything.  DOT did an unreal job on the squall day. That could have been disastrous.  They had trucks on the ready and laid down salt a half hour before the squalls hit. Its sometimes unreal in here to read grown ass men and women bitch about the minute things.

I've got no problem with salt when needed, especially on some of the roads I drive on.  However, in our area they have been dumping tons of salt when it was obvious that either there was going to be no snow or the precip was going to be liquid not frozen.  I have to wonder where some of the cities and towns are getting their forecasts as they are wasting money and resources.

I thought it was just my neighborhood. So much damn salt everywhere

Seems to be everywhere I go.  Commuter rail platforms have been ridiculous at times.  Also on a lot of roads and highways you can't even see the white lines because of the salt residue.

Nice rainer.  Will wash away the pointless salt they've been dropping on the roads.

Never seen so much salt for so little snow and ice.  For the first time ever, our garage floor is white from all of the salt water tracked in.

62F PVD...record tied so far

OWD up to 66 in the swamp.  Mud must be brutal.  I grilled last night, and my back yard was a muddy mess.

62 at OWD.  Gotta get outside.

For those of us spring enthusiasts ... the first sign of the change:   the sun has risen at Utqiaġvik!

Sun rise at the most northern U.S. town is more than merely symbolic .. it's a physical circumstance of the Earth's tilt in relation to the sun slowly and inexorably reversing.  Moving forward, the brief showing will lengthen in duration and ascent above the horizon, while down here in middle latitudes, the next step will be passing out of the perennial solar minimum ... occurring ~ February 10 every year.  

Obviously ... these distinctions in real time and a given season's climate don't always see eye to eye.  Regardless of whether they disagree or not, however, July is still inevitably coming... so one side of that argument is definitely, eventually, going to lose.  Just a matter of time... 

Damn sun angle!  There goes our chances of snow. 

Didn't radiate at all in Randolph.  High was 9 at midnight and low when I left at 6:30 was 8.  Pretty much sat at 8 degrees for hours and hours.  I guess that's what 225 feet of elevation will do.

England is stealing our snow!  Damn Brexit.  Maybe I'll get to see some when I'm there in march.  These are from the Peak District east of Manchester.

It seems over the past 30 years it’s big or ratter with not a lot in between.  Is that the new normal?

No normal is the new normal!

Finally some fun. Howling wind and really low visibility for about 5 minutes. Dropped 6 degrees almost immediately.

Nothing more than a light flurry in Randolph so far.

At this point....just one Major Snowstorm will be satisfying, and that will keep it from being a total Ratter.  If we don't get a Major...this will go down as a big time Ratt!!   Mother Nature showing all the big outlook calls that we don' knowt as much as we hoped.  

Yes, come over to the dark side, you know you want to!

Pep looked pissed off for a lot of the game.  Back to weather, my cousin in Huddersfield woke up to .5" of snow this morning.  She was bitter it melted right off.  I thought she would fit right in with the weenies here 

Huddersfield Town's Premier League season has been on a par with SNE's snow season.  Both worthy of relegation!

Off topic again but were you a fan of last night's Newcastle/Man City fixture?  I was 

Ugh!  Horrible match.  Seemed like after they scored in 24 seconds, they just assumed they would win.  Played really poorly.  I'm worried that David Silva is reaching the end of the line - just has not looked like himself for the past two months.  Hope I'm wrong.  Heading over in March to see Man City play Watford, then Schalke in the Champions League.  Hoping we don't finally see a snowstorm on March 7th!  Go Leicester City!!!

Used to bowl on the candelpin tour til my back said no more, miss it.

Looks like the rain/snow line just got to my town before retreating cutting totals in my area.

Nice.  I used to love watching candlepin bowling with Don Gillis every Saturday.  Some great bowlers.

That's awesome, Never tried duckpin but did candlepin for a couple seasons.

I bowled duckpins and candlepins for a few seasons and that went well since the delivery is pretty much the same.  Only bowled tenpins a few times in my life, and I was absolutely horrible.  Just couldn't adapt.  Just to get things back on a weather track . . . drove back from bowling up route 24 last night in 34 degree rain.  50 minute drive each way for my Tuesday night league, so I'm not a fan of Tuesday weather events!

Off topic, Last post on this, But i bowled in a few pro ams at BDL, With Walter Ray Williams JR and Pete Webber to name a few, And some tourney's in BDR over the years as well as in RUT.

Used to bowl on the duckpin pro tour (yes, there is such a thing) until a few years ago.  That's me in the middle back when my hair wasn't a distant memory.

Bowled for years and avg well over deuce until the back went to hell and saw a few 7-10's in my day.................

Still drive to Rhode Island to bowl duckpins every week.  Haven't seen a 7-10 since . . . . . . . . last night. 

00.00 in Randolph, but a nice 5 degree temp drop in about an hour to make the commute to the train a blast.  There always has to be one idiot on the roads - had one guy less than 10 feet behind me on icy roads; we get to an intersection with a left turn lane and he goes around me but continues going straight only to catch up to a line of about 10 cars ahead of him going just as slow as I was . . . hopefully he only hurts himself someday and no one else.

How appropriate that it is from the 1980s!
