It just needs a little stimulation...

Nope. My neighbors heating oil truck does, though.

You and I are going to have to carry the torch this summer in this forum...and the pun is most certainly intended...lol

Oh, I know that. My sad face reactions are on a having fun level. That's why I made a post to follow up. It's all good.

I just gave you my token sad face reaction. I did see some heavy flurries (lol) on my up to Sunbury...

I saw a couple of flurries in Tower City in western Schuylkill County.

I saw a couple of flurries in Tower City. One thing of note. Penndot is not bring any roads along my route. Not 209, 225, nor 147. I'd have thought with the sleet and ice threat they would have.

There's a better chance of this storm dumping 2 feet of snow than me doing that...

Doesn't seem to be that big of a deal, and the precip may even shut off by shortly after the morning commute, which means perhaps a late start but not a full "snow day" for me. Such is the way it goes this winter. Almost every freezing/frozen event seems to be a 6pm to 6am event. For once, I want my 3 day weekend. Otherwise, I wish it would just rain.

I'm surrounded by watches. CTP late to the party, as usual...

The tail of two maps... Mt Holly's State College's

That map doesn't match up at all with CTP's map. If you extrapolate the .25-.50 into CTP's CWA, then Schuylkill County should be in the same range, but CTP's map only gives the Skook .01-.25. Wonder who'll end up closer to being correct?

I'm not sure if I want sleet or ice. I just know I want Friday off...lol

CTP going with more sleet than freezing rain for Tamaqua per the new point forecast.

We hardly ever reach warning criteria anyway...

How much ice?

The only way I'm going to enjoy the ice storm is if it gives me a three day weekend...lol

Well, now that my lip is bleeding...

I'll be like a baby...lmao

I've been ignoring it in the hopes that it goes away...

Come on now. You should know the routine by now. Any snow modeled south stays south. Any snow modeled to hit us squarely goes north. It how we roll...lol

Well, trees and powerlines would be the first to freeze up. I'm not sure 70 degrees a day and a half prior to the event will make much difference with those objects...

So it's looking like it's going to be a shit show at best then?

This I can MOST CERTAINLY do without. No need for it to be that cold going into March.

I hope not, but almost every one this season has been that way. Evening start, daybreak finish. Then, whether white or icy, I have to report for work and run my loads. Boss gives us freedom to choose if it's actively snowing and accumulating, but once it stops, we're expected to run. If it stops mid-day or later, I can stay home as I'm first shift and the day is cooked by then, but if it ends early, I can at least get 2/3 to 3/4 of my loads delivered and have to run. Since I'm the primary snow shoveler due to my wife's and mother in law's medical conditions, our stuff doesn't get cleaned properly if I have to work..
