LeesburgWx Posted December 29, 2024 Share Posted December 29, 2024 NGL, that run is sick! The big ones usually show up like this. The cold behind the storm would solidify us in a glacier. Let's reel it in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked (to me, at least) like the OP was lining up a big dog at H5 after the first storm, but it didn’t happen. I think we’ll see multiple potential hit windows across the suites as we move forward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
