StormyClearweather Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I'm heading to Puerto Rico for work for the rest of December -- so mark it down, there will be record breaking cold and/or snow in or near MBY. Good luck everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaryWx Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Oh the horror of that map! I was in like Flynn for a solid foot or at least 8-10" of snow even if it shifted one way or the other a small bit. Alas, ended with only a couple of sleety/pellet-esque inches. What made this one really bad is we had a good 72hrs of <32 temps to follow for preservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
