When we were looking to buy 30 years ago I made a significant tactical error. I did not factor in snow retention into my matrix. I can't tell you how many times when I'm driving around looking at snow covered yards that I have serious regrets.
I have zero evidence of snow here. 100% gone in my yard. There is some remaining in my area where previous snow had drifted.
Not a drop or flake or anything else here. It is an extremely dark day, however.
I've been keeping track - for each event going back to last year he was either spot on with his numbers or too HIGH...
It's interesting how people "complain" about MU forecasting low snowfall amounts. It hasn't exactly been banner times for snow in our area for the past few years. Would people rather see him forecast 6-12" and we still end up with 2"?
I mean...his job is to forecast accurately. Seems like he's done pretty well?
My daughter's family is at the Magic Kingdom today. I pick them up at BWI on Tuesday evening. I'm telling them that it might be chillier than what they just experienced on vacation when I drop them off in Mount Joy Tuesday night.
Yeah about that...refer back to my sports team futility post from earlier in the week. I'm numb to the infinite amount of ways that things can go south.
Or, specific to snow...north, east and west as well.
Slowly but surely (and as expected by me) the extreme cold next week continues to back off somewhat. In fact, CTP never has me going below 0 at any point. Lows of 1 on Tuesday night and 4 on Wednesday night.
Not minimizing those temps. Just an observation that regardless of the level of cold modeled it almost always ends up modifying over time. We'll see what happens next week.
Working late tonight and it's snowing very impressively here at the office. Road was covered in just a few minutes. Hard to tell exactly what the visibility is but it's sub 1/2 mile for sure.
That as depicted is beautiful...however, I do not like ever being on the SE fringe of a snowfall map. The pain comes far too often in these situations.
Can't accurately measure here in Conestoga but I'm confident there's less here than up our way. River Road has not been covered at any point. Solid dusting on everything else though. Pretty winter day.
