maybe i'm just taunting him....

yeah latest is that we'll get 12-16 overnight; that's honestly fine by me, but i suspect it will keep snowing into Sunday.

right - where do you put it all? i don't know - again, my Hamburg buddy was talking about that today and they have a lot more room down there than here where i live. Like...he has a snowblower but it's like he's in a tunnel at this point; just won't launch over the banks anymore.

(we are supposed to get rain next week. that'll be lovely)

Good news (for you) missing the brunt of the storm so far, hopefully you don't get too much tonight. I can't imagine get hit with 66" in one storm. How do you keep up with the shoveling? Even with a snowblower, where do you put it all? I don't think that snow is melting any time sooner.

went to bed around 1130 last night, skies south of us looked dark red! but still no snow. woke up to bright skies and 2 feet of snow. That was quick.

Clear, 35*, and 20mph winds. Tomorrow's long run is going to be fun.

Eta - yikes! It'll be 28* for my run tomorrow. At least I don't have to do 20mi like my insane wife.

Similarly, the Philly Marathon started at 7 am this morning (they run it the Sunday before Thanksgiving, 2 weeks after New York). It’s currently 34 here.

Eh, running in the cold is fine. Just as long as you never stop.

Running in the cold is glorious. Felt downright energized. The lady did 21. Last long run before the marathon and a chance to qualify for Boston.

I've finally been able to run again after about a year or so with plantar fasciitis making it impossible (thanks golf!) and I've oddly enjoyed the miserable cold runs the past 10 days or so. I won't in February, but I think the ability to zone out on a basketball or soccer podcast is a great motivation and I'm aiming for another half next fall

The thing I love most about Rain Storms in lexington during rush hour is the 5,000 immigrants from the sahara deciding this was the morning they needed to get out and be people about town directly between me and my office. Stunned at how bad these drivers are in the rain, and I can't imagine it's different in every other city.

Steve of phpBB · Post by **Steve of phpBB** » Wed Dec 21, 2022 6:56 pm

(But I think that’s 25 degrees.)

Did I see that it was going to be a 60 degree plus drop in 24 hours in Colorado?

It was being said taking into account windchill…I’m sure it was the case in some parts. At my house in Longmont we dropped 38 degrees in 15 minutes.

DIA reported 50 degrees this afternoon. It’s supposed to get down to -15 tonight.

That’s cold. We are maybe getting down to single digits but it’s only been about 40 all week.

I ran some errands at noon, the car said it was 52. I went to get beer at 6, when I was driving home it said -1. According to my phone it's -8 and there's 15 mph winds. It's super dry bone-chilling cold. I went around handing out the holiday beers (a 11% Kviek barleywine I brewed) and my hands were super cold just running across the cul de sac.

Was gonna hit Top Golf with the boys tomorrow for the pie day, but I'll happily drink scotch at home to welcome my 50th.

It's a bone-chilling 18 degrees here this morning. Brrr.....

Post by **Sabo** » Thu Dec 22, 2022 4:12 pm

I’m working a seasonal job at a local ski resort as a snowmaker, and it will be about five degrees with 50 mph wind gusts during my shift tomorrow.

Nice knowing y’all.

The front is coming through right now.

Pruitt IV · Post by **Pruitt IV** » Thu Dec 22, 2022 5:08 pm

Toronto will get off relatively easy in terms of snow (3-5 inches), but that will drop on top of (and this is a term I don't recall hearing before) a "flash freeze" where the rain that's about to start falling for 12 hours will suddenly freeze over. Temperatures dropping from high 30's to single digits.

And you just know those plows won;t be out in full force over the Christmas weekend.

Grocery store was nuts today.

A_B · Post by **A_B** » Thu Dec 22, 2022 6:33 pm

I’ve been to grocery store twice this week and it’s mad max thunder road.

This is when I’m happy there are three Krogers close to me and Texans are dumb and obsessed with HEB. In and out with all I needed in less than 30 while I laugh at Facebook posts from friends who went to the latter.

Very close.

Yesterday it was 50 degrees at 1:53. Today it was -9.

Damn! You guys stay safe!

(Lows on the 40s, here.)

degenerasian · Post by **degenerasian** » Thu Dec 22, 2022 9:36 pm

It's been -40 wind chill here all week. So normal.

I'm watching the Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth and it's freezing there!

55 when I woke up at around 6AM. Down to 51 now.

govmentchedda · Post by **govmentchedda** » Fri Dec 23, 2022 7:58 am

68 now, 32 tomorrow morning. Only a high of 47 tomorrow!

This Floridian is pretty stoked for weather that actually feels like winter holidays should.

Showing -7 here

-7 right now. It was 27 when I checked before bed around 10:30.

16, feels like 0.

Pruitt IV · Post by **Pruitt IV** » Fri Dec 23, 2022 9:39 am

It has begun.

After a night of 40 degrees and steady rain, rain has become snow and temperature is plummeting.

I just pray that the beer I ordered gets delivered.

It's like 40 here. But the sun is out and the sky is blue so it feels warmer.

Freezing rain overnight has turned Seattle into a total skating rink. I just did the "Funky Alphonso" dance on the ice covered porch.
