It started when most people would be going to bed. By the time I walked outside at 9 am, my street was already plowed. We (weatherboard folks) spent the rest of the day waiting for the ULL backside snow. The RGEM spit out an insane solution on one run of like 15”+ with the ULL passage.

I think 90 pages of that is snowchaser posting his forecast from the Weather Channel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3dcg Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 It's pretty entertaining reading the Mid Atlantic and NE forums regarding the MLK storm! Even better with a Timber Ales brewskie! Side note: heading to NH Friday and "maybe" returning Monday 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vastateofmind Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 2 hours ago, mattie g said: We got smashed by both January 1996 storms in Lewisburg, PA. Buddy and I drove back to school right after the January 12 storm to a scene I had never experienced before, nor have I since. Four-lane state roads with one lane plowed either way and snow banks up and over the roofs of cars. Wading through waist-high powder when trying to get into our fraternity house. Roof collapses. And then the massive flooding on the Susquehanna only a week later. Truly epic stuff! Those extreme conditions are hard for me to imagine for northcentral PA. I probably should remember hearing about some of those effects back then from up there (sister and mom still live in Williamsport), but the ONLY thing I remember about the back to back January 1996 storms is that we were trapped inside our small townhouse for nearly two weeks. With our six-month old infant son. Who was VERY colicky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I am glad to finally see the masses rise up against the cartographers, for TOO long have they imposed their “legends” on us.
