Fozz Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I don’t usually like sleet but I had a lot of fun with it in Feb 07. It was so glossed up that you could just glide on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I can't speak for everybody but I can 100% guaranty there isn't a single bunny or any other rodent or stray pet in my yard after snow flips to something else. You guys may think I'm odd or crazy but you haven't lived until you go on a rodent ass kicking contest in the slush, mud, and rain. Liberating. Eta: just so I don't get doxxed by PETA and harassed the rest of my life... I don't kick hard at all. I'm not playing to kill or even to hurt really. Just a "friendly nudge" to get those beady eye'd mofos off my yard so they can stop staring in my windows laughing at my pain. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltosquid Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I’m surprised they brought the impact all the way down to the minimum for the I95 corridor. I know to an extent it’s relative and they only have three levels of impact, each of which is taken by areas deserving of the higher impact warnings, but idk, if a warning level snowfall and some sleet too is still on the table for the corridor then that seems like an odd choice. edit: I guess if impacts are mostly happening Sunday evening it makes more sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LP08 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Subtle changes but two things I see to watch today. Using the Nam cause its running. Ocean storm intensity (notice the change in strength from 6z to 12z and as it pushes northeast). Pushing the PV lobe west some, causing heights to drop in the east. This allows our storm to gain longitude as it moves. Second piece not in range but talked about a bunch. NS SW that eventually phases with our storm. Delay it and the storm gets further east before turning north (delays the trough turning negative). Speed it up and congrats Pittsburgh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It already gets to a perfect spot. Time frame 72-96 is what is key IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
