  1. Oh, that one was bad. Allentown had more than a foot if I recall, and I used a wisk broom to sweep off my sidewalk. That was worse than the times Atlantic City got a blizzard and I got flurries in ABE.
  2. lol at the Ukie. 17.2" in Allentown and 3.8" in Hazleton. Of course, I've seen that actually happen a few times in the past 20 years since I'm here.
  3. The neighbor has a quad with a blade, so I'm good...lol
  4. They are very territorial, and take their snow extremely seriously. They really don't like outsiders coming into their sub-forum for some reason, especially those who come from climatologically favored snow areas...
  5. Yes. I do too. It makes a tolerable cold day painful and miserable.
  6. Lol...my flight path. AVP to ORD before Houston...
  7. Wow...that's got to be some kind of hiccup, no? I mean, can something trend that bad in one run? Seriously, that's not what I hoped for when I said I hope the snow comes in after my flight out.
  8. Now this makes me wish I was going to start the job the following week. I may miss out on a good one. That I didn't want to hear. My brother-in-law is going to drive me up to the airport in Scranton. I'm guessing we'll leave between 8 and 9 am.
  9. Congrats Binghamton??? I know, now I'm going to be
  10. So I'm flying out 11:15am on Sunday. Looking at most of the models, I may get out, and my ride gets home, before the snow breaks out. (edited to add other than the GFS which brings precip in earlier than the others...)
  11. Thanks. It depends on how many nights they want to put me up in a motel. I'm not sure they'll want to spring for an extra night. I can't believe we've gone over a month without a big storm, and now, on my possible departure day, we may be in one...ugh. That's why I had hoped it was going to be a Monday-Tuesday event instead of perhaps a Sunday--Monday one.
  12. My new company is going to call me to set up travel arrangements for my new job, so I'm trying to figure out timing of my flight, most likely (hopefully) early Sunday. I want to try and get out before the snow flies if possible so as not to put my family in any kind of danger driving me to the airport and back home again after dropping me off. What looks, and I know it's early and much could change, to be the best estimate of onset of precipitation? I will be flying out of Scranton or Allentown.
  13. Sorry to do this, but... Time sensitive, but it's snowing in Tucson, AZ right now...
  14. Yeah right...lol No amount of snow is ever enough for a snow lover...
  15. Off and on sleet so far this morning that put down a very light coating on the ground. 29f at the current time. The flakes from last night were just that, flakes. If I hadn't got up to answer mother nature's call, I wouldn't have looked out the window, and wouldn't have even known it flurried...lol
  16. Echos already moved south of me. Not one flake made it down.
  17. Oh come on now. I wouldn't be me if I didn't... But thanks for the well wishes! I do appreciate them. The company runs all 48 so I'm sure I'll see some snow somewhere out there.
  18. I'm kind of surprised that the watch doesn't cover all the counties, unless they issue one here for later. Side note, and probably quite time sensitive since it's a live feed, but check out how hard it's snowing in Flagstaff, AZ right now...
  19. Thanks. I didn't know you were in the same situation. For that I apologize. As for the board, yes it's about weather, but many of us share our personal stories as well. I see it as a group of like minded friends. We gather because we have the same interests, but the discussions veer off in other directions as well sometimes.
  20. If you were out of work for 10 months and didn't have any income for 8 of them and you were heading off for a job that wasn't easy to come by, you might understand where I'm coming from. And I'm not wishing the snow away, I just want it delayed, not denied.
  21. As long as that hits on Monday and not Sunday, I'm ok with it. Like I said, I'm likely to have a Sunday flight out of Scranton or Allentown for job orientation. I don't want it to get screwed up. Besides, I'll be in Houston for a couple of days, so it can rip once I'm up in the air. Just have to worry about where the connecting flight is out of.
  22. Just great. The 8th is my birthday and I was going to have a big picnic and pool party that day...
