I’m keeping a toe in the water. wtf, it’s late January, what else is there to do?

Getting some stray flurries, 20F.

A long way to go. Maybe it ends up being a whiff. But this is where I want the GFS at this stage.

So we want that norther or wester? Yeah, I always thought the rule of thumb is we want that junk dropping in over the Dakotas.

He's all over the boards this morning. Just put him on ignore.

Any updates on the Euro??

Jeebus we have short memories! Didn't we learn anything from this past weekend?? Last week at this time we were looking at a suppressed storm. How did that work out? I'm not saying we're getting slammed this weekend. But let's give it to Thursday or so before pulling the plug.

First time out shoveling since noon yesterday. There's a light glaze on the car windows suggesting some ZR must have mixed in. Currently have a random flurry floating by. So to shovel and not hear the sound of drip-drip-drip. 20F/DP 17F

It's gonna be a long week

Glad I didn’t waste my time cleaning off the car, the sleet is doing a good job of sandblasting it for me.

My neighbor has a front end loader on his John Deere and just dug out the base of my driveway

If we get blitzed between now and say Valentine’s Day, I’ll gladly call it a winter.

As someone mentioned in the MA forum, when’s the last time we cashed in at the beginning of a good pattern? Usually our bigly storms come as the pattern is breaking down.

I take a guess and say PDII? We flipped to sleet for a time overnight Sunday into Monday. But other than that, can’t think of sleet with these temps.

IP here as well. Glad I listened to Deanna Durante and not Adam Joseph. Shoveling 8” of snow with 2” of sleet on top would be a bitch!
