  1. October 4 in Albany is more impressive than October 20 in Minneapolis. https://www.weather.gov/media/aly/Past_Events/1987/Frank.pdf
  2. If it was 30° and 1/4SM +SN on August 31st it would start sticking then too. MWN has had accums in July. Technically the solar radiation is higher up there than at lower els since there’s 6000ft less of atmosphere to scatter it.
  3. I burn with a UV index of 2 and I can’t even muster a hint of red this time of year. The twin cities got nearly 30” in Halloween of 1991. How quickly they forget. Although he was probably watching Saturday morning cartoons back then.
  4. It’s a Feb sun angle with most vegetation going dormant. I don’t understand the concern.
  5. The ground is soggy. Looking forward to a little dry stretch.
  6. 0.96". Radar filled in nicely A lot of this is low level so it looks more impressive as it approaches the radar. Small droplet sheet drizzle and rain here despite barely any echoes.
  7. 1.34” RA/+RA Run is flooded already. lol
  8. Go back before that 19° and it’s -40° again. You can get those crazy RH swings once you get high enough into the upper air.
  9. Still rain. The point is that radar algorithm is wrong. It’s just taking temps in the mid 30s and painting blue with it. It’s a torch aloft.
  10. I may start bitching about too much rain after next weekend if the RGEM pans out for tomorrow.
  11. Plants are going dormant too so not as much is getting taken in by roots.
