It should be a good night for stargazing IMBY regardless, so I’ll be out anyway.

The latest update on Spaceweather.com says it’s not going to be as impressive as yesterday.

It looks like an Oblivion Gate opened in Bob Chill’s backyard (IYKYK ) Edit: this was referencing the super red pic further up

It’s showing up in 3 second exposures to my north now.

I’m not seeing anything IMBY even with long exposure. Skies are clear at least.

How do you get text alerts? Is there an app for this somewhere?

https://www.space.com/stargazing/auroras/northern-lights-may-be-visible-in-these-us-states-tonight-nov-10-to-12 Needs to come a little further south for me, but some of you in this subforum may have a better chance.

I have a friend who lives south of Charlotte texting me pictures of the snow lol I’m hoping this is the start of a front loaded Nina winter, cause I really miss Dec. snow.

I had once thought of making a poll like that, but decided it was too cruel. The most epic busts IMHO: March 2001 Boxing Day 2010 Snowquester 2013 The entire 2023-2024 winter

Is the KU book on Northeast Snowstorms still worth reading, or is it too dated now? I’ve never read it, but I found someone online selling it used at a significant discount.

There’s probably two ways of looking at it. 1) What’s your favorite in terms of the end result (for me it was Snowmageddon part 1, hands down). This was the question I was asking in the poll. 2) Which one was the most impressive/anomalous in terms of the meteorology? That one’s above my pay grade, but perhaps Dec. 2009 because of the time of year, or March 1993 because of the overall setup? PDI seems insane too from what I’ve read.

‘96 and Snowmageddon 1 were tied before I bumped this. Now Snowmageddon 1’s taken the lead.

Bump. I was thinking about this old thread today. IMBY I'd add 1/6/2025 to the list for sure- I'd even put it above HECS 2016, despite having several inches less in the end.
