Who's Brad Field?

Its going to be frozen of some sort, No way around it, Surface temps don't sniff 32°F

Seeing there wasn't an obs thread, I guess that's what we have.

I could post every 30 secs like most of the weenies in SNE do on these events if that would help the page count any.

That's ugly ice on the HRRR, Hopefully that's more IP the zr.

And that's the reason why its getting done, We have to load and pack tomorrow afternoon.

Its a roll of the dice generally, Some times its snake eyes.

Its getting cleared and let the chips fall where they may.

We could us a messenger shuffle if Scott can help us............

I don't even crack 32°F here.

Its fickle to say the least, Could have a long season, Could have a short one, But like he said, Can't make up for what time you lose once the sap changes in the tree.

Most of the time convection porks us and looks like it will again.

I went with this here on the sled site i forecast on, I didn't want to mess with two maps so i just did a combined, That was before these continuous tics NW.

4" increments.

I feel like James with a little OES action going on

Yes, They have to use it, Waste of money or not or you get your budget cut then screwed the next winter if its a bad one and you run out of product before it ends.

Everyone shakes there head about how bad this winter has been and rightfully so, But when you have guys boiling sweet water to make maple syrup in early Feb, You know temps have been above normal.

Lawn thread 2020 upcoming?

And unfortunately, There is more precip with wave 2, Got to love this winter..............

Wave 2 keeps ticking further NW ea model run, It can stop anytime now.

-SN, 19°F, 2.0" snow, First snow since 01/19, This winter has been rather lackluster.

The SLP for wave 2 has been getting stronger ea run too as it was in the 980mb range and is now low 970mb which is also causing this to track further west over SNE instead of off the coast

All the models have been amped and have tracked a few ticks west today at the surface, Not a good trend for coastal plain and the coast.

I'll send you a pic as i'm going by Saturday morning............
