the powder on top will just vaporize. I think we'll have some patches left, but it'll be ugly.

Last night's powder will be gone long before Christmas Eve. Having all this snow around leading up to the holiday has been great though, and more than we could have hoped for a week ago at this time.

I do agree with the earlier post pointing out that having a legit post-Xmas threat to track would take some of the sting out of the Grinch.

It’s already settled to 9:1 here. We have a solid 2” of liquid in our 17”...not sure what you guys had for w.e. out there. Sometimes you guys flood with warmth a little easier over there to my east without the ageostrophic flow keeping the cold advection pumping in.

Timing of the cold front seems to be early to mid morning west to east. Seems like a 12-15 hour period of torrential rain, damaging wind and dews. A place like Hunch will keep snowpack , but I think most others will lose most of it. Looks like a change to snow at the tail end.

That's often the forecast for torch-deluge to CF events, and we rarely get the snow.  Our 6" pack has about 2" LE so I expect a skating rink after the Grinch - glad I have a pair of 5-gal buckets filled with wood ash.

I was looking at BUFKIT and although it's slightly inverted, something as simple as one of Ray's farts will mix down 55+kts.

I can’t believe how quickly it compressed in half. It’s like seeing one of those LES storms around BUF where Oswego gets like 6ft and then you check depths a week later and the max out there is like a foot.

The other thing that happens with those powdery, windy storms is that you end up with spots where the grass isn't even covered - so you start to get bare patches pretty quickly.

Freezing fog and combo of melting refreshing from yesterday's snow has made a big black ice problem this morning.  Welcome to the official start of our winter season. Still caked up here.

She pump it up to 5 years under her age?   We keep our house at 68 winter, 72 summer.
