That first mega band seems to be on the move. Shift NW pretty quickly. Actually kinda not really a band anymore. Just filled in and moving NW.
First inch of snow was pretty heavy here. Winds are gusting good too. Stronger than I thought.
I keep telling my parents and everyone back in Brockton that they are probably going to take it on the chin with this one.
Told my father that his snowblower probably isn't tall enough.
Dec 9th 2005 takes the cake for me as my favorite storm. I left Brockton high at 2 pm that day. It was raining when I walked out of the building. By the time I got to my bus a minute later it was sleeting. By the time we left the parking lot 5 mins later snow was mixing in. Three mins after leaving parking lot it was a whiteout. Got off the bus at around 220 and had to walk in the middle of the road to try to get home. The walk home was the craziest thing I have ever seen. We couldn't see cars coming at us that were 15 feet in front of us. The best part was all the cloud to ground lightning that was striking around us. This went on for about an hour and I probably picked up a good 4 inches in that hour. My favorite winter memory here and it is going to take something insane to top it.
Everything is rotating!! This is insane and out of control.....everyones thoughts and prayers have to go out to all those affected by this incredible last couple of days.
I feel like southern Arkansas will be under the gun tomorrow. I like the Clarke, Dallas, Nevada, and Ouachita county section of the state.......but overall the next two days should be incredible from a meteorological standpoint.
