She said something like "And this is what we meterologists call Fropa. FROPA! FROPA!" I never could figure out why she was screaming FROPA! but she was. I have always hoped to find it on Youtube but never have. Did she scream FROPA or FUPA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might also be confusing the end of November with the beginning of the month and then again perhaps you're hitting an overly alcoholic beverage early today?

tamarack Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Cheap high around 40 at 4 AM. Front roared thru about 15 minutes later, house-creaking gusts, drumming on the roof (thought it was RA+, probably was the IP/graupel dusting that's still surviving in places), temp sliding thru mid 20s on its way to probable singles by tomorrow morning. MWN was -4 with WCI -42 at last check. Heard a tree go down shortly after reaching a year-old fir windthrow I sat on while waiting unsuccessfully for game. That crackle-crash was a small fir becoming the 7th dropped across the 1500' of club trail on our woodlot in the past 2 weeks. A friend found some black ice on Rt 4 north of Farmington and visited the ditch. He escaped injury and his pic on FB suggests his Ranger did also.

alex Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Snow has intensified again. Nice wintry day, feels like January. Will try to get a ski run in later but not sure I can last long; it's miserable out there. Temp/dp 17/8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temp/dp 17/8 17F at MVL ASOS at 12pm (I still can't believe we are going to be in the teens all daylight hours today, that's nuts). Light snow falling. Winter arrived with a punch.

INL dropped to -13 yesterday (just before midnight)...old record was 0 in 1979. And, INL dropped to -14 this morning...old record was -6 in 1986. Wow.

dendrite Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Down to 25F. Not bad for a downslope. CON record low for tomorrow is 9F...today's is 10F. MOS says there's a shot to break that late, but I think it's safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
