I was in Nashville for the 2003, but the 1991 one was intense. Killed like all of the white birch in the area - one of my favorite trees! How much ice?

CNY_WX Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 2 minutes ago, BuffaloWeather said: Wow it hit our area too The 1998 ice storm brought down almost the entire electrical grid in the north country. This led to farmers having to milk their cows by hand then dumping the milk since they couldn’t get it picked up. So just remember how destructive these storms can be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 It takes very specific and unusual conditions as you know. Difficult to predict 24 hours out. it’s a cutter anyway. They rarely come SE at this time frame. My bet? Warm rain like the models have had for weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long way to go! This one seems different with such a strong cold press possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I remember cutters always going when I posting more years ago. People get hyped for cutters, models usually too far SE. Maybe models are better now, though.
