Off topic, but don’t fall for the snow event at 160-180 on ops.

Windy, but not terrible in Pittsford. Power is hanging by a thread. Got lots of gas for the genny

Interesting to see that the town hall brick building withstood either a 4 or 5. Mental note to self: brick is stronger.

You’ve been Dorothy for a while.

By far my favorite course in Rochester. Played it 10 times this summer.

Freaking creepy

Wind usually verifies. Maybe not to this extent. Like the guys were saying, lucky it’s outside mid day warming. We shall see. I hope for Tim and Delta it does verify. I know one thing, it’s coming for a certain fence.

I’d say under 72. We’ve seen a lot disappear in 72-144. The GFS and Euro consistently over amp these waves. I’m just shocked there’s no learning curve. No AI? Seriously, AI is used in a lot computer logarithms, these are the big international models. Your phone uses these. They learn the routes you take, your usual hours. How can they not learn that there won’t be a sub 990 storm on the EC every 180 hours?

There’s NEVER backside snow like this. Never. These models…..

Yeah. I suspect you’ve done a bit better than me. But I don’t do the snowboard science thing. I just measure what’s accumulated and so far, at my two houses, we haven’t had over 1”. We’ve now had several dusting s in both Pittsford and West Irondequoit. My folks live in Pittsford and I stay there 3 times a week. They usually do better early season- being away from Ontario. But this year both locations have done the same. I’ve noticed better returns on the west side so I’m not real shocked you’ve done better. Have fun with your wind!

It seems a bunch of you have been at least a little fortunate these last few day. I’ve still, as of yet, to see my first real inch. It snowed for several hours yesterday but didn’t really add up- daytime warmth, etc. Havent looked but the Roc airport’s probably claims we had 3” or something. Don’t buy it. Its not even real winter yet….

There she is. I’ve missed you fantasy storm

He’s hot and cold. He’ll show up when it gets real

Not the trend we need. Anybody say “omega”?

Good call on over achiever! Nice snowy day in the Roc. Mostly atmospheric but wintry to be sure.

About 20 years ago I was nearly killed by falling trees. It happened while I was a grounds keeper at a big local cemetery. We’d had gusty winds which earlier in the morning had toppled a pine tree, so the whole team loaded up three trucks and a chipper to clean it up. The fallen tree was of a line of stately old pines which stretched along a road that went north to south. While the deafening chain saws ripped and chipper raged, the west winds started to pick up again. Sawdust and flying bits were striking us in the face as an enormous gust came that literally pushed us all back on our heels. At that same moment, three 75’ pines, from the row, bent, uprooted and slammed to the ground in near unison. Thump, thump, thump. They fell west to east across the road, between the trucks, the chippers and the men. We looked at each other with utter disbelief. The boss, realizing how stupid he’d been, shouted for us to “get the hell out of here”. Ive always hated the violence of the wind. It’s the only thing in nature that truly unsettles me. Plus, I can’t stand being without power and internet.

Enjoy Delta! I’ll be hoping my neighbors leaves pass on by and my power doesn’t go out

Glad to see the Monroe County totals didn’t need updating. (.1”) mind you, this was one of our biggest traces. Brings my yearly total to .3”

It’s one of the reasons I love lake effect. You just never know when Mother Nature throws down warning amounts where little was expected! Enjoy bro

Nice!!! Glad some of you got some! RGEM really does well with lake effect. The same old rules apply (off Ontario anyway), they always end up a tick North. Now for our usual May in December period. Maybe it breaks just in time for Christmas?!?!

GFS says no snowfall from here until nearly Christmas. It’s actually a little refreshing that it’s not showing some ridiculous 180 hour bomb.

Looks like you might be good for a couple more. It’s great we have someone from that little area.

The action off erie looks more impressive than I thought. Could be interesting

I’m working on this Buddhist stuff. I really am
