boo radley

All it takes is one nice warning event and the year seems that much better. Keeping the faith.... for now. Also looking like decent lapse rates and instability on Wednesday any chance of squalls?

I'm thinking our extreme southern guys may cash in on a nice coating on cold surfaces...just a gut feeling.

Lol depending on temps may be white rain, but at least snow falling.

Won't it be too warm MAG? Hadn't heard about squalls until now.

Rough look for next few weeks, hoping for something to surprise here soon but not holding my breath.

Merry Christmas, hope you have a snowstorm to track very soon.

Or at least get a huge one that shuts stuff down...those two inch clippers that everything is open yet it's icy and a mess are the worst.

Lol this is some high level weather talk going down in here....just let me know when we have a big'n coming so I can have my beer stocked up!

Lol I hope the mid Atlantic gets a solid hit just to help cheer them up a little....some of them seem pretty down and depressed.

I've enjoyed reading them thoroughly...has me longing for the days the entire screen would go orange for winter storm warnings on the weather channel haha.

Favorite storms? Know you're a Miller A man haha.

That's amazing to read...truly a monster...did you guys lose power at all during it? You probably were in heaven with that snow pack and sleet on top. Lol and I actually am a nerd enough I watched a documentary on that Florida impact called the 'No name storm' had huge storm surge, came in while people were sleeping.

1996 was a monster down there in Sounds like...cool story almost seems surreal thinking of that much snow.

Wow 65 mph gusts in snow is incredible....d*mn I wish I remember that storm.

Kinda dead weather wise so thought it'd be fun to ask forum which snow storms are your favorites or dearest to your memory? For me I have three. One was in March of 2011 I believe...it was a rain to snow transition storm that we actually had ongoing flooding during the transition to snow. It thumped the rest of the night snow and ended with close to 11 inches total. My second favorite was Presidents Day 2003...nice powdery snow and had close to 15 inches. My favorite as of now was the March 2017 heavy snow event...best rates I've ever witnessed and measured 18.9 inches even after settling some.

Also you'll leave me as the only heat miser, need my mentor around haha

Glad you made it safe my friend! Those squalls are something that make me cringe each time they develop....nothing you can do in a whiteout.

You provide insight and post information no one else can give and a perspective that no one else can as well. I am a fan of you posting and a fan in general of hearing from someone who does what you do for a living so I hope you stay and speak your mind fully. Your opinion on these things in general is the one that truly matters here, so I hope you stay and post whatever you feel!

Ended up being about 60 cars involved in the crash, 46 people hospitalized...several seriously injured and 2 deaths one from PA one from MI.

Lol I can't stand phin, but it's not weather related. I know better than to wander in there, you guys are closer to their weather directly so it makes sense to.

I wonder how they would take a guy from NCPA posting? Haha

Idk how you guys stand that MA crew, a lot of them are Moody and at points downright condescending to each other but especially to anyone new/outsiders.

That's all good by me, I just hate the single digits and windy stuff. It's winter if I can't deal with 20s at night that's just whining lol. I'd take 12 degree highs if it meant it was snowing heavy...but 12 by itself...mehh.

Love the snow but hate the dry and cold especially windy dry and cold. If it's not going to snow and we have no snow pack I'll gladly take 40s and rain.

My mom is head of HR at hospital in Lewisburg and she said they had emergency operation mode for Mass casualty incident...early photos are awful, cars pinned in between crashed tractor trailers, hoping everyone else involved survived.
