  1. The Skook out by me was ~50% frozen over yesterday when I drove down River Road north of Rt. 12. This is north of the Tulpehocken, which is fed from Blue Marsh, so I don't know if it's frozen downstream. Might have to go check it out later today. I also want to see if anybody's out at Ontelawnee ice fishing. That's something I've always wanted to do, and this weekend might be a good weekend for it.
  2. About to be dry slotted, and that's perfectly OK after today's events. It looks awesome outside. I'm sorry for anyone who has to venture out in this tonight or tomorrow though. Stay safe, everyone.
  3. Same here, temp back down to 10.2°F. It briefly touched over 11 earlier today.
  4. About to be a radar hole over me. Then more sleet.
  5. Just measured almost 2" of sleet on the front steps. Still coming down! Temp is hovering around 11°F. Winds NNW blowing 10mph, gusting to 15.
  6. All sleet now. Just cleared the driveway and sidewalk. Wow is it powdery! Temp is creeping up as well, 10.4°F.
  7. Measured 8.25" on my front step. Starting to sound a little plinky out there, and the flakes are getting larger. Maybe starting to warm up slightly, up from 9 to 9.8°F and 7.3°F DP.
  8. 7" here, still really fine and starting to blow around a bit. Still 9°F.
  9. I've always wanted to be able to use my leaf blower to move snow! Wow. I guess this is what snow in single digits looks like!
  10. Can't recall snow ever doing this on my deck. Usually it fills in the gaps between the boards andbuilds as a solid layer. This stuff is so dry and powdery though, it almost looks like sand.
  11. 12.7°F/2.4°F. Finally, light snow. G'night all, looking forward to nowcasting with you all tomorrow.
  12. Still awaiting first flakes here. Might go to bed soon, hope to wake up to a complete whiteout.
  13. I wonder what models it uses lol also, why is this so comforting? Nostalgia? Yeah, probably.
  14. I kinda love how delightfully old school PSU Ewall remains. Still virga here.
  15. 15°F/ -.7°F DP. Radar returns are overhead but it's all virga for now. (As expected.)
  16. I dunno, but I was inspired by another poster here enough to go out and buy a bottle of champagne for a champagne breakfast of sorts tomorrow. Hand-made bagels are proofing in the fridge right now, so I'll boil/bake those off first thing in the morning to have with cream cheese and lox, and maybe even some poached eggs. In other news... it's super cold out right now! 15°F is the kind of cold where your face starts to hurt after a few minutes.
  17. Apparently ChesCo and also Berks. I noticed earlier this year that there wasn't much available, wonder why that is. We have a bag of that pet-friendly stuff (the kind that looks like tiny shards of glass) and a bunch of leftover kitty litter from when we had cats several years ago. That'll have to do.
  18. Didn't we have something similar in 2016? NWS called for a foot of snow and we got like 4" of sleet out near Coatesville. My front yard was a glacier for like a month.
  19. What NAM are you guys looking at? Still seeing double digits region-wide over at TT... What am I missing?
  20. Haven't seen a map like this in quite a while... and this is only through 7pm Sunday
  21. You're going to bundle them up like they're in some kind of a puffy spacesuit and send them out into it and they are going to remember it for the rest of their lives.
  22. Having lived in ChesCo for a significant portion of my life, I'd definitely try to get that genny working if I were still there now. That said, I'm also going to make sure ours is up to snuff here after work just in case.
  23. Winter '94? I was also on main campus. I remember cars being completely buried and a massive snowball fight in between the dorms. I caught a stray to the side of my head that blew out both of my glasses lenses (we somehow found them in the snow anyway) and then we got in trouble for climbing on top of one of the covered walkways. Good times.
