He told you where he was going ?

Actual hike, walk, or hybrid ?

This is my second busiest time of year. I'm extremely busy with fall cleanups and decorating. In my 30 years of landscaping, this was the hardest year to keep up with leaves and tree debris that I can ever remember. I'm still trying to get some of my properties clean from this fall.

I'm a landscaper, brother, and I don't do snow removal.

This is actually great news for me.As much as I love snow, I don't want to see any until after Dec 23. Every day it snows before that I lose several hundred dollars. I'm never on board with early season snow. If it snows I'll enjoy it, but it's better for me, and my clients if it holds until later in December.. That said, I don't think cpa will make it very long without some unforeseen winter weather surprise this month.

The good stuff's right behind those fat flakes

It just started ripping here about five minutes ago, for the first time since the start of the event.

Didn't take long at all to get right to a nice, steady snow, which is great. Let's get as much as possible before the sun starts coming up.

First flakes here in Fairview Township at 5:19am.

True that. Rain or snow, i'm ready to go. I'm out here at 4:10am putting up christmas lights feeling the holiday spirit. Maybe feeling it a little too much.

Don't let it worry you too much, buddy. The magical snow elves operate there dendritic growth factories and mystical snow cannons way way up high in the clouds so that those mean warm nose trolls and their grumpy taint dragons cant melt all the magical snowflakes before they reach Middle Earth.

We're well past the long and mid range for this system, there's a lot of other datasets used in forecasting like real-time observations and forecast soundings, and there coming into play at this point.

Definitely seems like we needed one with what's going down here right now. I don't know how hard the winds are blowing but they're blowing well over 25mph at this point, maybe even twice that with some of these gusts.

Depressing but informative .

I haven't seen any out here tonight. I was out burning brush that I've been saving for a rainy night. We had a good clip of snow , sleet and gruple Sunday afternoon that you should have got in on. We also had couple of snow flurries flying around a few nights prior.

Big m************ snow drifts.

First flakes of the season are falling here in New Cumberland atm.

Thanks, Snowman. I missed your reply the other day. I didn't want to sound to crazy with the numbers, but I believe it was actually more than eight degrees in a few minutes. I was working right at the east foot of South Mountain in Dillsburg. I'm familiar with mixing, compressional warming, and forcing but what I experienced at the foot of south mountain was exceptionally extreme from what i've experienced outdoors in my lifetime and i've experienced a lot. I wonder how many times i've experienced compressional warming compared to other surface warming dynamics ? Based on what I experienced the other day, I would have to say not much. It definitely feels different.I'll recognize it next time, if that's what it was.

Yes, speaking of the f****** devil, my windows are rattling at a crazy high frequency that i've never heard before.

A lot of times I feel like they're just hype.This one's pretty terrifying for me.

I'm not sure if it was isolated or if anyone picked it up tonight, but right around five o'clock, the temperature spiked about eight degrees in a few minutes while I was in dillsburg and the wind just came out of nowhere without warning. From the very first gust, it meant business out that way.

There were several trees that I could hear come down around forty minutes ago, and I saw several power flashes on a wild ride home from York Haven tonight with no shortage of road closures and trees down along the way. I've been hanging out down in my basement since I heard the first tree come down near my home. I'm not getting any of the wind protection tonight that i've talked about. This s***'s f****** b****.

My youtube feed has been full of talks of early winter snowstorms , visitors from outer space and AI pandas. It looks like it's going to be one hell of a digital ride this winter, hopefully we can have some early season sleigh rides to match.

Wind throughout the column can really throw off the estimates. The inaccuracies align with the nearest soundings yesterday. Some places south and west should have gotten a little more than what's reflected on that map but as I mentioned wins throughout the column effect, it, so it's a little more complicated than that.
