It's my fault, guys--I did a stupid thing and bought a fancy-pants, new snow blower last fall. I'm so, so sorry.

No worries, Mike. My gf gave me a couple of winter coats for Christmas. I’m holding her responsible.

I keep squinting, looking for flurries. Nothing yet but I do need to wash my windows.

I was outside and there were a couple misguided flakes. Non weenie people wouldn't have noticed. My windows have dried up rain spots and it's difficult to spot a stray flurry. Then again, a grown man shouldn't be looking for a stray flurry.

Mother nature treating NJ well. Gives them legal weed AND some decent flurries. This area must have something on the ground. It's been hanging there for the past 2 hours w/ decent intensity at times

Some nifty looking undulatus out there at the moment. I'm just happy it's properly cold and blustery for a change.

I made it a point to vacuum the car and change the oil/filter today just to be outside and feel the elements and possible stray flake. Although no snow this is at least something wintry.

Games start at 4:30pm...Bird fans should really be rooting for Seattle although I think they have little chance.

30F/DP 20F/Cloudy, projected low low tonight 26F

Media 28 Cloudy windy winds gusting to 40 mph?  Getting 40 mph winds today was that forecasted?  Also that storm offshore didn’t miss by much. 

We are sandwiched between an elongated high to the west and a low that is sitting off the coast so the gradient has been increasing as that low deepens a bit.  The 3:38 pm AFD mentioned it -

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
200 PM...As of early this afternoon, a deep upper level trough
was centered along the east coast with a developing low pressure
system located several hundred miles east of Cape Hatteras.
Meanwhile an elongated area of high pressure extended from
northern Ontario south and westward through the Great Lakes and
then down towards the western Gulf of Mexico. The gradient
between these two features is resulting in blustery N/NW winds
over the area and this looks to continue through most of the
near term term period.

There's definitely been an active breeze today!

Currently still overcast here and 30 with dp 21

Had a couple gust that made my windows whistle. Not 40mph but pretty sure 25+mph. I can tell it's windy because my digital antenna is fading in/out at times.

Will have to wait for what Punxsutawney Phil says! :lol:

The cloud deck actually cleared out quite a bit here and it's just partly cloudy and 27 with dp 20 (and humidifiers back in operation).
