What is a jebwalk

A walk in the snow, sleet, freezing rain, etc..., spent laughing at inexperienced people walking around like penguins and sometimes accompanied by the shoveling of snow into ridiculously tall piles that glaciate till June.

The term 'jebwalk' is a legendary name for a walk done typically with headphones blasting favorite songs. This is usually done in the presence of heavy snow, especially if the snow is wind driven, which generates an extremely contagious excitement that can only be expressed by the Jebman himself.

FTFY

 

29/27 and coming down!

Pretty incredible that most of us are nearing or have already hit the minimum we were expecting just 2 days ago... 

Yea, i started my bar at 2" minimum but bumped to 4" this morning. I'll be at 4 shortly and we still have as much as 18 hours to go. Lol

Hey man, you are literally a living legend. I'm positive there are at least 1000 people that know exactly what a Jebwalk is and many of them have probably used the term. Think about that... awesome

Many have used the term to our significant others when they ask what the hell we're doing putting our boots and gloves on to go wander around in a snowstorm at midnight lmao

I am just an ordinary person that likes to walk in snowy conditions, lol. I probably am a bit too obsessed with the stuff.

Now, YOU are a Living Legend. You are the guy that knows storms. You KNOW patterns. You should have a red met tag. Your posts are GOLD. My posts take up bandwidth, lol.

Give this man a RED TAG stat.

Still find that hard to believe but the models say it will snow for a while.  I still feel like I will wake up tomorrow and the back edge will be incoming fast.  We shall see.

Appreciate it but nah, there would be too much pressure. I'd be scared to bust forecasts. Being a weenie makes it fun. I can say whatever i want and not be held accountable for it

Just off Old Harford, a few blocks south of Taylor.  If I wasn’t sick right now, I’d probably be at Racer’s throwing a few back :)

I love Racers'.  I'm off Belair a little south of Glenmore.

There could be a pause or some dead space before we get into ccb and there are no guarantees we'll get that piece. Guidance sim radars all look great through mid morning easy. Who knows... might have over 6" by then...

Seriously! My kids for years always ask if we can go on Jebwalk....like that’s literally the term for peaceful walking in snowy conditions. So cool....

It's like communion during mass, it's a deep-rooted tradition -named after Jebman- of walking through a snowstorm for the sole reason of admiring the scenery. Now that you know, you should go take one and snap some photos

That banding out by Hagerstown looks like it's heading our way...

Was there really a doubt? I've witnessed countless events where guidance underestimated snowfall in your region. It's not a coincidence. The orographic influence is real. Especially with easterly low level flow.

Jebman, sorry for butting in. You and your posts literally symbolize the epitome of the enthusiasm that drives half the board to be weather enthusiasts. I honestly don't think this forum [and the predecessor] would be the same without your posts. Don't trivialize them!
