Down to +9.7 for current and low temp for today (so far).

Had 0.4" of snow yesterday which melted down to 0.02".

 

Interesting, yet MDT didn’t get it right.

Sounds like road up here in upper Dauphin county in the open field areas, where the wind has a unobstructed shot for drifting aren't in good shape this morning. Some are down to one lane with several inches of snow on the road.

Took the trash out and got the mail. Tee shirt and shorts.

They are; however, my wife threw the red challenge flag stating that my mind is not secure...

And here I sit with thermal underwear on. I'm getting my new vehicle today, so I need to go out. Hell of a day for that.

Getting rid of the Jeep?

Yup. My wife can't get in it anymore, and I'm not going to wheel it as I don't have time. I/we need something practical again.

MDT’s highest gust so far matches mine at 51

Just as a type that we get a 58 mph howler that lasted about 45 seconds. My cat is freaking out at the ice snow blowing off roofs hitting windows.

I don't know if it's the wind direction today or what but I am barely noticing it unless I'm near one of our west-facing windows. It seemed a good bit gustier earlier this morning.

Like @MAG5035 said yesterday it’s more N than W. 
 

But it’s just as strong as downslopong here .

We had a little dimming of the lights going on a few minutes ago. That's one of my worries with this wind combined with the cold.

Power outages.
