let it snow
« on: December 17, 2009, 05:20:43 pm »
calling for 8"-12" here for Friday night and Saturday morning.  WoooHooo!!!  It's been a while since we got that much.  It's even better because I don't have to work 'til Monday, giving my son and I some time to make snowmen.  Long range, they are calling for more snow Xmas Eve!!  Been many decades since I 've seen a white Xmas.

11 degrees here (about 80 miles due north of Vile) and I need it so that the backyard rink will freeze solid before it snows again.  Weather-idiots in Boston are still on the fence saying maybe we won't get anything or we might get 18" on Sunday if the track is right.  WTH?  Can't pin it down any closer than that???  And you make how much?  I need a job like that!

BTW SgtDel, we're at a 100% chance for a white Christmas - 6" of crusty, icy snow on the ground right now and the forecast calls for temps below 30 for the next 10 days.

Good to hear you've got a shot at a white holiday!

An hour west of me in the Shenandoah Valley, they are calling for up to 18", and hour east of here near Williamsburg may get 3" of all rain. I hope this Low Pressure system moves about 50 miles more eastward and I'll have to tunnel out my back door.

The stars have finally lined up perfectly for a change.  Now calling for 12" - 16" here, and up to 24" just 20 miles west.  3 feet in the Shenandoah valley....

I know you New Englanders think nothing of this, but, this is rare here in the Mid Atlantic states....

8 inches in 6 hrs so far...
