Of course I'm in the 1-2 inch zone. Beyond po'd right now. I'm so sick of the amount of 1-2 inch events I get.
I've said it before, if that's the case than I'd rather get no damn snow at all.
Yes. Sorry @mitchnick. I should have also said that I hope you feel better soon. Being sick sucks. Luckily, I've been able to (so far) avoid any of the bugs that have been hitting so many folks lately.
I'm not greedy. I don't care if MD/VA/DC get 12-18 inches, just as long as I can get 6 inches +/-. Give me that and I'll be happy.
I don't need either of those things to make ME miserable. Life's been kicking me in the nuts ever since I came back from AZ. Current dilemma is that I need to drive an automatic truck due to shoulder issues, but have to go back in a manual because the guy who drives the truck I've BEEN using comes back from medical leave.
While I don't have much wind at my house, where we fuel our trucks is a different story. I opened the door and stood on the running board to put my coat on, and a damn gust kicked up and shut it right on my legs. Almost knocked me back into the truck.
That's what I'm looking for. About a 6 inch, high end advisory, low end warning, storm. While it would be nice to see those pinks covering the entire map, I'll take what the ICON is showing. I just want more that a 1-2 inch nuisance.
Ugh...Voyager rant here, but I'm so tired of being too far north, south, or west in these snow events. If we (I) can't get a good, solid high end advisory event, than I'd just as soon smoke cirrus.
Just what I need. Snow when I don't want it and no snow when I do.
I have a big, half day long, eye specialist appointment on Friday because I was recently diagnosed with macular degeneration. I need my wife to drive because I'll be dilated, but she doesn't drive in snow. So I'm REALLY hoping the Friday snow doesn't happen.
12.5 mph in my backyard. Unless my anemometer is way off, but really, where my house sits is so much calmer than even my daughter's house higher up on a hill.
The great thing about being out there is that you can live in warm Phoenix and drive 2 hours and be in a winter wonderland. Or, you can live in Flagstaff, and when you need or want a break from the cold, drive to Phoenix.
Add into that the diversity and beauty of the landscape and it's just an awesome place to live.
I have an occasional beer or glass of wine, but am 99% alcohol free. I'm prone to wicked hangovers, and one day decided it wasn't worth the pain the next day. I don't miss it one bit
Tamaqua is super protected from most wind directions. We get the occasional gust, but for the most part it's been rather benign here. Even in the most prolific wind events, it's tough to get a gust over 20mph
