Burghblizz

It’s starting to be a grind, especially because I’ve been sick - but I’d rather complain about that than lack of winter

1.6” out of the squall at NWS. i think they are at 2.7” for day, for those losing sleep over whether Shafer Road got 1” or 3” out of this.

The height was probably no more than 10 minutes - but that was no ordinary squall. Holy shit.

Absolute blizzard conditions. Heaviest snow of the winter

Yeah i was out from like 5 to 7. When I went to my car, it was had a thin layer of ice under the snow that was falling. Very sneaky

Squalls look pretty robust and in several waves. Models I saw had more like one thin squall line originally

Pretty bad accident on Rt 79 near Zelie. Not sure if roads or visibility, but heard fatal and at least 18 cars.

I still have close to 10” in my yard, so any snow on snow is good. Interesting to see if that secondary squall line develops this evening

I got about a fluffy half inch on trees. The wind kicked up slightly and started blowing some snow. Because the snow is so fluffy it’s actually coming off the trees as individual flakes. Almost like a mini squall. Not sure I’ve ever seen that, but a cool effect adding to scenery.

Getting this light but fluffy snow. Kind of unexpected. Because there is zero wind, it’s sticking to the trees like a wet snow. Snow globe morning.

12z Euro and 6Z GFS loving next weekend. 12z gfs south. Interesting to see what unfolds over the next (gasp) 10 days. But the signal is there.

I agree. I’ll certainly deal with it for awhile because I do like snow on snow. But it seems longer than a week now.

Damn -Zelie/Harmony area got to -20 to -25. That’s about 8 miles from me. I always consider the -22 in Jan ‘94 my coldest. And it as also windy during that period. Just brutal. I don’t think there are great records of rural locations during that time. Certainly not like now. But you would have to think some backyards in rural areas were way below -30.

Currently -14 here. I was trying to explain to my wife that we were as close to freezing as a 78 degree day. She was not amused.

-9 IMBY for those that celebrate
