And a snowier one too.  Stay safe. 

It’s pretty difficult to get much worse weather than this on a Christmas Eve night in the HV. Had about 5-6 inches of snowcover today. I haven’t looked out but I’m sure it’s approaching 0 and positive it will be by morning.
 

Thank you 2020, May I have another.

Just checked hrrr says we should be gusting 45-55 give or take right now 50-60 on nam most models are within few mph of eachother. This is the most consistency I’ve seen in a while models have had this for a week now 

too bad we dont get this kind of consistency with snow storms lol
