  1. Just a little light rain and a few pellets here at work. At most it's going in the books at .1" and that's being generous. Sounds like Maytown is fairing a little better...
  2. Some areas south of Buffalo have already had 2 events this season larger than that...
  3. My beautiful wife texted me to say "IT'S SNOWING" just like that - in all caps. Maytown is on the board!
  4. Good news! Hopefully there's flakeage in Maytown. Temp was 30 when I left for work. Still snowing here for now, a full-blown trace.
  5. Nah...that guy has a sweatshirt on. Too soft for me. A mix of snow/sleet here at work, enough that the snow is blowing on the roads. Win! (though it still hasn't snowed at home this season...I'm not at home right now )
  6. The cruelest part of that? The area where the heaviest snow was to fall (over our houses) is the exact same area that has no weather watches or warnings up now.
  7. From 5 days ago: To the present: #moredigitalsnowthatvanishedlikealmostalldigitalsnowbeforeit
  8. I'm glad that I'm talking about the man and not about sports like I promised.
  9. It's fine my friend - despite having no affection or ties to the Steelers, I am surprised that you are not aware of the Immaculate Reception. Another great example of never taking anything for granted or making assumptions. I was 7 - and fully immersed. You know, when most normal kids are either pushing toy trucks around or outside playing in the woods. I was glued to NBC back then as they had contractual ties to the AFC games and I would watch every game that the Black and Gold were televised. I absolutely remember this game - it cemented my fondness that day.
  10. Just in time for the Christmas holiday, Roundtop has announced it's opening on Saturday for the season. They've made a lot of snow the past few nights, and they'll be blowing 24/7 starting Friday right on through the weekend. They should have a really good base to mitigate the warm spell approaching New Year's.
  11. GFS brings precip in a little too late tomorrow AM for areas east of the river to see any white...though it's still showing a decent burst of snow on Friday.
  12. Not that I know of. I do know that he was giving public tours of the Steelers Hall of Fame yesterday afternoon. Correction - there's a picture online of him giving a family a tour yesterday afternoon at the Heinz History Center.
  13. Allow me to digress for a moment - really having a mixed emotions kind of day. Today my work team is celebrating the holidays with a catered luncheon, a day that in the past I've always looked forward to with excitement. Unfortunately, the day began with some terribly sad news. I "met" #32 back in the early 90s at Beaver Stadium. I was at the USC-PSU game with a friend of a friend kind of thing, and he was telling me about these very special seats that he had. (season ticket holder) At any rate, a few minutes prior to kickoff, here come Franco into the row directly in front of us. In fact, Franco's seat was directly in front of me. When PSU scored, Franco stood, turned, and gave me a high five. I thought that was kinda cool. A moment I'll never forget. A really, really good person whose time came far too soon. RIP #32. You will be missed.
  14. It does seem like over the past several years we've had some January duds - doesn't mean that this year will offer the same. It only takes one well timed system that can change our perspective very quickly.
  15. Punt could always get shanked - hey, sometimes we lose in great patterns and sometimes we win when the pattern might suggest we shouldn't. I'm certainly not closing the door for that amount of time.
  16. We MIGHT get snow on the back end. I would certainly not say it's a done deal.
  17. Unfortunately, virtually no love on the back end though.
  18. NWS Buffalo talking about "paralyzing blizzard" in their area later this week - this area is already over 100" for the season. They're in line for multiple feet of snow along with winds up to 70mph.
  19. I'm not sure - I sort of adapted that from the New England forum - they have an obsession with talking about their fannies. LOL
  20. I wanted to give @Festusan actual number, but couldn't. Thank you very much for this! (I would have guessed "7" since 1965)
