Baby it's cold outside

Borek

We got around 6 inches in the last 12 hours. There was no snow at all in the morning.

Dang, all it did was rain here last night and I almost had to turn the AC on in my apartment when I got home today.

I've never been in snow more than about 1 inch thick. If that.

It's overrated.

Things are going to deteriorate tonight. There will be melting snow starting at 3:00 am and turning to freezing rain at 6:00 am. For the next three hours there will be a mixture of rain/snow and snow/rain, turning later to snow/rain and rain/snow. At 9:00 am, expect rain dear, with scattered toys. From 9:07 to 9:13 there will be a chance of hail with hailstones roughly the size of Texas. From 9:37 until 9:45 there will be freezing temperatures and a windchill of 74F. Rain will continue all day turning to snow at 9:00 pm and continuing until 9:00 am Saturday.

It's nice here. <sips her tea>

No weather here.

We in New England are preparing for snowmageddon to start tomorrow morning.

I can't wait to sleep in late, get nothing done, and make a nice breakfast (with lots of bacon). You know, a regular grad student day, but with bacon.

Please don't eat Chris P. Bacon. He is a cute pig, and so small that he wouldn't be worth the trouble, anyway.

The weather forecast has changed and we are having trouble finding Nemo. Now they are predicting light rain until 9:00 tonight, then snow. We're south of the purple area, the blue area, and even the white area, safely gray.

Snowing lightly, though with really big flakes. The wind is mostly out of the East, which is not a good sign in this area. Only 8 degrees out, so these big flakes make me think that the cold surface air is being overlain by warm, wet air from over the ocean. We'll see what we get. A foot or so would cripple Boston, Providence, NYC... Not such a big deal up here, though.

Borek

Around morning we moved from the snowing zone into the melting zone, but they predict we will move into the freezing zone later today.

Flurries in New England. Nothing crazy yet.

I'll keep you guys posted on Boston. Though, I've been here when there was a foot of snow before. Things were shut down for a day or so, but it was nothing we couldn't handle.

While driving east on the PA turnpike toward NJ tonight, we passed a caravan of about 50 utility trucks probably headed north to New England to help in case of downed power lines. In addition, there was a caravan of military trucks, I think they were electricity generators. Here in South Jersey we're only expecting 4 inches of snow, so we can spare the equipment as well if it is being relocated. Good luck to you during this storm and in the aftermath. I see that Maine's 19 cars all crashed into each other.

There is no longer any snow-fall here. If it starts up later tonight, I hope it's short and sweet.

What do you expect? It's New England, the only place in the world where 19 roads can meet in one traffic circle.

Jimmy Snyder

Here are two flakes that fell on my front yard, the first at about 3:00 am this morning, and the second at around 4:30.

We have a foot or so on the ground, and it's still coming down at a pretty good clip.
