Man it escalated quickly here in Whitestone, snow went from flurries to heavy immediately. We're all about get crushed

Oh man, lets see how this goes with the two different threads lol Anyway, it's really starting to pick up here. Starting to get a little of that blizzard look

Snow finally sticking to all surfaces, wind really picking up. Blizzard of '26 officially underway

Pretty much the only two TV meterologists I'd listen to, along with Lee Goldberg but the former two mainly.

Snow sticking to the trees and nowhere else not even car tops, I don't recall that happening many times.

Well, when you go mere hours before a blizzard that tends to happen

So my girlfriend asks me "How are the snow weenies doing today?", I said "Not good, they realized that they might get 12-18" instead of 20-30", she says "You guys are a weird bunch, you're rooting for crippling snowstorms while all it does is give me anxiety" and I said "That's because you're normal, we're not" lol

You guys are crazy for going now lol. I got it done yesterday and it was still crazy, I can't imagine the mayhem today.

What is "painful"? This is a 12-18" storm areawide, some of you need to gain some perspective.

It has begun, snow has commenced. Don't really care about the models now, just going to watch this unfold.

This is not an issue at all. The biggest question is how far north the storm gets before moving east and where the best banding sets up.

This happens all the time, some people complain at the beginning of big storms that the snow is too light, rain etc. then dynamics take over and they shut up. This is going to be a 970 storm moving very slowly inside the benchmark, it's going to snow and snow incredibly hard. 12, 16, 20 inches who cares? Just enjoy it, it's been a long time since we've had a storm like this.

Some of the models have cut back a bit but it's noise at this point, this is still a really big storm with 12-20 areawide.

I don't even pay attention to the RGEM in advance of a big snowstorm, it always runs low
