Someone in our subforum is going to get the goods.....and a chance that all can score big..let's stay together family...

BGM really downplayed ice potential in their afternoon discussion.

But where I am in Otsego County the models look ripe for a nasty ice storm.  Not my cup of tea.

Your thoughts on the ice potential for our area are appreciated.

Ruined 20 years of my childhood as a Bills fan. Still the GOAT of any sport of all time. Respect to him.

Agree and agree!

Awesome story! I grew up a Bills/Sabres fan and got into baseball cards very young with my best friend at the time and I got a few Derek Jeter rookie cards and shortstop was my favorite position so I became fans of Yankees at a very early age, didn't hurt that the team was good. I don't really have a basketball team, I do like the Bulls because of Jordan but don't really cheer for one team. 

Would love to go to Germany. I'm a big fan of castles and I hear there are tons of them over there. 

Vienna Austria has castles that you wouldn't believe.

Still mad he wasn't able to get a cup, 100% deserved one. 

Deep down inside I fear the same fate for Josh Allen.

Big Ben has officially called it a career.  End of the line for that 2004 quarterback class (Eli, Roethlisberger and Rivers).  It's the end of an era and I officially feel old.  I graduated college the spring before their pro careers began.  

You think you're old?

I used to watch Eli's dad playing football!

Thanks guys.

She’s a wonderful member of the family.

Back to the less controversial doggo pictures.

Lexi had another nice ski today.

She was a tired Doggo on the ride home.

That little red weenie in the Catskills points right at my house.

Can we extend (grow?) that thing by a couple of counties?

Looks like there's some nice cold behind it? You could go speed skiing on the ice afterwards?

That summarizes our last 2 ski trips to Stowe.

One day of above freezing temps on soft snow, a little rain, followed by a dive below zero and the whole mountain freezing solid.

Our luck when we go there has been so bad that we gave up.  The long drive and the crazy expense just haven't been worth it for us.

Hopefully Dave's trip will be better.

All day long with my friends...squib kick it...squib kick it...

I was so agitated that I barely slept last night.

I have to get it out of my head so the same thing doesn't happen tonight.

I'm liking the westward drift. Let's see if the other globals follow suit.

We can activate the Jamestown magnet and run it for 24 hours, bring this system about 100 miles west.

What could possibly go wrong?

My wife and I just took our golden and went for a lovely 2 hour ski.

I spent at least half of the time thinking to myself “How the f*** can you not kill 13 seconds?”

This game should be the Super Bowl.

So far it is been played at a level far above the other 3 games this weekend.

I think it's pretty obvious that the Bills or the Chiefs are going to the Super Bowl.

Burrow would melt at Bills stadium.

Look at that face, Lexi is in heaven!

She has quite the wonderful life but her absolute favorite day is being out in the snow.

Benny loves winter, took him to Knox today before dusk no one else was there so he was able to run free! 

I think Benny and Lexi could be buddies.

GEFS went pretty far SE with that next storm, barely scraps NE. There are still a couple NW outliers.

That looks perfect for a week out.

Thats the minimum distance we need it to be from the Jamestown magnet or we know how it will end up.

Nice morning walk with the dog!  The eagle that flew over didn’t seem to mind the cold. 

-15F here. I was just out for 20 minutes

It doesn't register as cold on my skin so much as it does direct pain.

I love winter but below zero, no thanks.

Can we please just have a low that doesn't hump Lake Erie and Lake Ontario?

Jamestown!

Lots of snow up in the high peaks 

Nice!  I know exactly where that sign is.  My wife and I did that as a summer hike a couple of years ago.  Honestly can't imagine being out there on a deep winter day.

Roof alert, for those that need to clear their rooves.

I almost didn't bother with ours yesterday, as we only got about 8 inches total from this last storm.

I'm lucky I did it.

Remember that freezing rain storm we had a week ago?  Well that layer was still lurking underneath .  It was hard and crusty but I could dislodge it.

My bet is after 12 hours above freezing today, then another arctic chill, that will be welded down and impossible to shear off.

YMMV of course.

Snow just won't die here and is picking back up. Mod to heavy rate right now.

I'm in that hole with no radar returns but with steady light snow falling.

Always good for morale with better looking stuff headed this way.

My house in central Otsego county at 0700:

5.5 inches fresh snow.

24F

I was there with 2 of my daughters.

That was the greatest in person sporting event I have ever attended.

The energy in the stadium was incredible.

It was like a primal scream erupting from all of us Bills fans who have suffered at the hands of the Patriots and Bill B for the last 20 years.

How does a low follow this track?

Just doesn't seem realistic based on past experience.
