Still no snow ob at PVC yet and 10 mile vis. I'm sure someone is seeing snow in there, but I think you just made up the 1/4SM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Given the nature of these things, those echoes are probably pounding whoever is underneath. Cool stuff. Congrats sand dunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Definite drop in the ceiling over the past few obs so it'll probably be snow there soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh ok that makes sense that the airport isn't inside the heavy snow band yet. Got to admit, one of the more heavy snow bands OES has produced in a while.

Ginx snewx Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Speaking of yore, look what popped up in my FB feed, 8 years ago on the eve of La Epic I am talking to MPM in the background with Bobalouie and Mrs Will in the foreground. We had a GTG , I brought a noose for Kev, the bar sucked, TB sneezed for like 2 hrs straight, we all got pretty buzzed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
