The roads and sidewalks this morning were actually worse than they were yesterday in State College and on campus.  Hopefully temperatures will stay above freezing for a couple of overnight periods because otherwise there are going to be a lot of broken bones.

 

Personally, I don't venture out on days like these without spikes on my shoes.

Moving to Florida might be your answer.

 

Florida is definitely not for me. I have a lot of family there and I love them dearly, but visiting FL every few years is more than enough.

 

Looks like Horst, DT, Accuwx and Weather World are all on board with the idea of something major developing at the end of the month.

Either the 12z EURO jimmied open the liquor cabinet again or it is onto something.  Make this the 6th consecutive run that shows a coastal low in the Feb 28th - March 3rd time frame.

 

EDIT:  Yes that is a 1052 mb high in North Dakota.

FWIW, 12z GGEM has a massive 1052 H as well in the NE/Quebec area at 240

NESIS rating for "The Big One", wasn't too impressive actually.

Seems pretty reasonable I suppose, Boston missing out on the heavy swath probably hurt the rating some. The top end of the accums weren't too insane either (widespread 2+ foot totals). Might've had a shot if that 10-20 swath was aligned directly on I-95 and the megalopolis, but it ended up in a good portion of our forum instead.

:lol:

 

I'm sorry, but after stressing out for over a week about losing my porch roof (possibly with my wife and/or the dog under it) I'm just finished with snow. I was finally able to get out and clear most of it off the other day, so I really just want the rest to melt off and not come back.

The areal extent of that 10"+ contour is pretty impressive though.

Yeah, I'm certainly not complaining about that.
