DT thoughts on upcoming pattern:

I seen that, we're overdue for something at this point.

I hope not. The winter is depressing enough with the short amount of daylight and getting dark before 5pm

February was a dry month I had 1.12 precip for the month.

27 here. Here is where i'm taking my stuff. https://www.facebook.com/CrossroadsMarketandAuction

Hopefully it starts late in afternoon in Pillow area

The stuff gets auctioned off on Friday starting @4pm I have no old signs to sell.

I'll have a trailer loaded with stuff I have to take to the Crossroads sale and market outside of Gratz. Don't feel like pulling a trail in snow, sleet, freezing rain. Even though it's about 10 miles away, a good bit of hills till I get there.

As far as what type of precipitation?

31 @12:23 what a slap in the face. Usually this month (2023) at this time we'd be in the 50's. Winters not over.

Is our Monday system turning a little colder, and maintaing frozen awhile longer?

How much for the suburbs of Pillow?

I think when you were driving truck back here in Pa. you siphoned Old man winter out of those wells at Tower City and took him in a tanker with you out to Arizona.

Any surprises in store for Mondays system?

56 @!2:08 56 seems like the magic number today

No I didn't say that you didn't believe me. It's just that the models show a storm, but their forecast shows something entirely different. Talk About discrepancies with their model and their forecast. I guess they don't believe the models anymore.

Monday A chance of rain or freezing rain before 1pm, then rain likely. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 44. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Monday Night Rain. Low around 38. Breezy. Chance of precipitation is 80%. Tuesday Mostly sunny, with a high near 48. Breezy. Tuesday Night Mostly clear, with a low around 30. Breezy. Wednesday Mostly sunny, That's my NWS forecast.

According to my NWS forecast, their is no precip in their forecast at all for Tuesday next week.

Started out as snow quickly coated the ground, now it changed to sleet. Some of that sleet is big crystals coming down.

I remember many years ago when we used to get those 1-3in. or 2-4in snowfalls, but it seemed every winter we could count on getting that one snowfall of 8+. And everyone would be happy. But that don't seem the case anymore. Even Voyager and I would be happy for just that one big snowfall, the warminsta's that we are. If we would get that just one snowfall, then we can move on to spring.

Before the thunderstorm which brought a lightning strike that knocked the power out for a few seconds. Had wind driven rain and pea size hail.
