You'll have to ask a Cape May poster

A few flurries here, 36F.

Hey gang, I was just in the NYC forum. Apparently some posters in CT are seeing flakes...in case anyone down here in the Philly burbs has any interest in what's happening in CT.

No Great Lakes low, something resembling a Miller A—is that map even a meteorological possibility??

I was just outside doing some raking, still nada. 33F

Yes, why should we be punished and have OUR forum taken away because a bunch of our members left years ago to create their own wx site. Why is that our fault?? Because not enough of us have remained (and donate annually) we should have our forum closed?? Cancel culture!!

The virga is having a tough time pushing east. At least cloud cover has over performed, 31F.

Agnes!! I've lowered my bar to seeing high cirrus off to my southeast tomorrow.

And judging the quality of a forum based on it's member size is a dreadful measure of a forum's value to those members who post here. And what information do you have access to that confirms the 63% in the poll above who don't want to merge are the vocal minority and NOT the vocal majority?? Look, you live in central Jersey, it's not a stretch for you to post in the NYC forum. But I don't see how the weather on Long Island, Newark, or Manhattan is of any interest to those of us posting from Reading, Wilmington, Cape May, Brandywine, etc. And if 100 miles isn't that much of a difference, then merger NYC with the SNE forum and merge us with the Mid Atlantic, Two big forums with lots of members so everyone is happy

Seems to be our pattern since Ida. Storms modeled in the medium to long range go poof. Remember the week before Thanksgiving there was talk of a disruptive east coast storm for the holiday? Nope. We're going to need patience this year. We do that well

Yep, my bar is set at mood flakes. Anything that whitens the ground is a bonus.

It’s early December, we take! Thanks, Ralph. Meanwhile, it feels like a March day out there, 54F.

Sorry, Mike! Yes, you're still here

Yes, I think all of us would be happier if we had some red taggers posting in our forum. Unfortunately they left several years ago and went to the other site. I don't see how merging us with the NYC forum solves that. I doubt there's a group of Philly mets out there thinking to themselves, "if only they closed the Philly forum and merged it with NYC, then I'd log in and discuss Philly weather". The solutions is to get Philly mets to participate here. How? I don't know. Merging us with NYC would be like large corporation A acquiring smaller company B. After a few months or so, company B ceases to exist. Why the NYC forum? Why not the Mid Atlantic? Both regions are about 100 miles from my back yard.

It wouldn’t be a merger, it would be an elimination of the Philly sub forum. I think most of us would quietly disappear.

This morning TWC noted Marquette already has had 21" of snow -- but that's 10" below normal so far. Marquette is on the retire-to list. Great thing is, up there you want a warm winter -- keep the lakes from freezing over so the snow machine keeps crankin' away!

Imagine the hurricanes reaching the east coast with a wider Atlantic

Welcome to met winter! Post 'em here... 40F

An occasional flake drifting by. On the board for winter 2021-22 36F

So close! Just flip all those colors on the bottom map and we in bidness. 33F

The first virga of the season is always special, especially when it falls and evaporates around the holidays. Sun starting to peek out, 44F.

My expectations are so low this winter that I’ll consider virga a win. 44F

There was a bee in my car today. 47F

Just saw a little garter snake slither across the walkway. Guess he came out to sun himself. 71F

66F per my wx station, 70F per Ambient. Either way, widows are open and am getting a nice breeze through the house.
