Looked at Watertown NY webcam, they're expecting 2 to 4 ft. of snow overnight and tomorrow with blizzard warnings. The snow flying through the street lamps....damn, wish I had that. 8F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I wonder if Delaware Bay or the Chessy will produce the rare bay-effect-snow streamers that we see with these polar blasts every once in a while? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 10 years ago we lived in an old apartment with high-pile, wall-to-wall carpet. I was tired of basically defibrillating myself every time I touched something metal, and specifically, the (at the time) metal scroll wheel in my mouse. I came up with the idea of running a bare copper wire in and around my slippers. I recall that it worked pretty great, so long as my socks weren't too thick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted December 24, 2022 Author Share Posted December 24, 2022 Now down to 8 with dp -4. Last time I hit single digits was back on February 1, 2019 (definitely nothing like that in December), with the same temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 At 10 pm EST, the temperature in Philadelphia was 11F (-11.7C). The temperature has now fallen 48F (26.7C) from the day's high.

LVblizzard Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Currently some light to moderate snow in Bethlehem. Sticking to everything. The flakes are so fine it’s not even showing up on the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Took the puppy for her evening constitutional in the back yard a little while ago. That was the quickest she's gone out to pee and come back ever! lol Properly cold and still gusty. I have a cheesy, xmas-themed, black sweatshirt with the GoT quote "Winter is coming" on it; I'm thinking of wearing it out tomorrow on my last-minute errands with some blue tape over the "coming" part with "here" written on it with sharpie. Hope I get some laughs. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it was snowing this afternoon and temps were dropping the flakes got super small and blowing all over. I wish my event happened at night, maybe more accumulation.

Hurricane Agnes Posted December 24, 2022 Author Share Posted December 24, 2022 Well my station "officially" registered a 50 degree temp drop in under 22 hours. So far I am currently at 6 with dp -5 (my deep freezer that cycles on and off and has a sensor in it so I can track it, is currently at -6 (it cycles down to about -14 or so). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had pooh-poohed some of the models showing single digits here in the city (due to it being December and not January or February) but right now PHL is at 8. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
