Anyone live closer to a first order station then me?

convenient

Waving good bye to February with the sunset last evening...

Last night had another fortunate timing with a frontal boundary that went through the area but timed out well before the deformation junk arrived and gave me another fantastic red flash.

Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm...

Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm and cropped in the camera for an effective 112mm of focal length...

Red, Red, Red Cheers!

Had a decent red flash, post sunset this evening...

Finally a break in the weather and was able to get out for a sunset this evening.

The white of the pre-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 31mm...

The reds of post sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 55mm...

Had a great time up north. Snow deep everywhere, but especially in Paradise where it was 3 feet deep

That is too much snow

I see there was a video posted this morning, pretty surreal to see. Pilot (or officer) waiting for that Delta flight to land was also taking a video of it, likely because of the intense crosswind and complete whiteout on the ground. I think Fox had it on Facebook. 
 

Nothing short of a miracle that they all managed to ultimately walk away, from a crash AND fireball. Pretty wild.

Totally amazing that the fuselage stayed intact. Helped in reducing injuries/deaths

Gotta love the 19th century woman trudging through the Blizzard of 1899 icon for 30F. 

to be fair, they have little to none insulation around pipes and in attics there

There was a similar screw hole depicted on one of these maps a couple winters ago except it was triangular, I called it the "Bermuda Triangle of Snow."

Holding out for the rhombus of ridiculous

I'm starting to feel personally victimized 

 

Are we at the "it ain't fair" point yet?

Guess I should feel lucky. KIND down to only 7 above. Still felt cold as heck outside earlier.

The twisty wind contingent is getting antsy.

36 hours ago several models were big dog’n Chicago thru Detroit.   Now it looks like Chicago won’t see crap and Detroit will get a run of the mill advisory snow.  If you can’t trust models 2 days out, wtf is the point?   Crazy

That butterfly in China is really beating those wings...

The sandhill cranes honking their way back north, flinging a figurative finger towards the groundhog's way...

OK, now it is thundering here.

Can we get one of these maps to be right…even just once a season?   Hell even half right would be nice.   (That’s the 360 hr euro snow total for 12z

Even if the map is right, only 22 feet more to go!

Was 68 at KIND. A great February night to be out for the sunset.

The white of the pre-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 35mm...

The beginning of the oranges and reds. Taken with the 24-70mm at 50mm...

The end of the reds. Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm...

IND broke their record, hitting 68. Huuuge overperformer

It felt great.

^ Glad I am not driving i-90 tomorrow and Tuesday.

Heard and saw some sandhill cranes honking their way back north while I was raking up sweet gum star pods in the backyard.

^ sidewalk and street look really wet. Heavy wet snow?

Why the negative vibes in the tag for this thread? Now in the body of the thread, knock yourself out and be as negative as you like. But to get all sides of every coin to add to the discussion, I think Keeping the thread title bare would be better for adding all posters. 

Wow is right, a bunch of vampires on this site.
