wacky1980 Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 "seriously guise. this guy that works at NASA told my buddy we were gonna get up to 2 feet of snow this weekend. it's gonna be even worse than last weekend (we did get 20" last weekend, btw)! and this NASA guy nailed the prediction for last weekend, so i completely believe him." that's all i've heard all week. even from family. and when i was all like "whoa, pump those brakes. we're not getting 2 feet of snow. the system's moving too fast / freezing line may slide 'nort / the low is too far south / etc etc" i was met with a bunch of "you don't fucking know. you're not a meteorologist." then about thursday, models started backing off on snowfall totals. and the freezing line started creeping 'nort. friday morning, they were down to 3-6" total. it was supposed to start snowing yesterday about 3pm, when the WINTER STORM WARNING took effect. around 9pm, it snowed the first flakes, but quickly turned to rain/sleet and stayed that way til about midnight. by time i woke up this morning, it had already burned out / blown thru. they just canceled the warning, which was supposed to go until dark today. as for our precip totals? maybe a half inch of sleet and a half inch of snow. if i can find that NASA guy, i'ma punch him in his 2 foot long dick for making everyone shit themselves in fear all week. same goes for NWS/KSTL. 2
Swimmod_Luna Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 We're still under a Winter Storm Warning but they keep pushing back the time it's supposed to start. At first they were saying Friday night, then around midnight on Saturday. So far there's no new snow but they're still saying 4-8 inches today.
discolé monade Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) i love how the 'weather channel' now seems like 'usa' t.v. the drama of weather is....just wow. if anything of significance might be happening (usually hurricanes) i go here. Edited January 19, 2019 by discolemonade screw you typos 1
mthor Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 We're up for Snowmageddon tomorrow. The governor has already issued a limited closing of the thruway, which pretty much guarantees not even flake one. 3

bnmjy Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 No snowfall here. It's been nothing but rain, and not the freezing kind either. It may change to snow later tonight, but I doubt it's gonna be that bad. We'll see.

This was the results of the storm they talked about all week here I think if it hadn't been 60 out yesterday there would have been a lot more snow fall 1
Swimmod_Luna Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 We ended up getting quite a bit here and supposed to be more tonight and tomorrow. I can post some pics in the morning.

I can post some pics in the morning. Go out in your bare feet in the snow and take a pic of your feet in the snow. Call the pic, "Two feet in snow". I guess if your name is snow (which is what my nickname for you is), you could just take a pic of your feet and call it, "Two feet of snow".
mthor Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Well, shit. About 4-5 inches so far, still falling steadily, although not impressively so - I can still see to the end of the block. 1

wacky1980 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Posted January 20, 2019 this was my front yard last weekend. the stick says <13" but it was a heavy, wet snow and it compressed as it fell. 16-20" is what the local news said. in yesterday's storm, we got an inch. then we got another inch today. supposed to get down to about 0F tonight, then we warm back up to get some rain by tuesday. lovely. 1
