Snowmageddon 2022 (5 Viewers)

I’m seeing 12-30” for Boston. South shore to get more than north. Feels like 18-20” where I am (just north of Boston)

Snow was a big driver in my decision to leave Boston for Denver.  I'm watching this storm closely to see what I'm missing.  And I have two ex-wives back there who have to do their own shoveling!

Smart move. We’re about a year out from moving to Florida. We get hammered in Wilmington every storm, really sick of it

 
There isn't snow in Denver?

Denver averages 60.2 inches of snow per year. Boston averages 48.1 inches of snow per year 

:confused:

When it snows in Boston, it sticks around until April.  here in DEnver, it's all gone in a few days.  And I'm not sure I believe your numbers, either.  So far this year, Denver has only had a couple "storms", one for about 3" and the other for 5".

This has been a off year so far. The first snow is usually before Halloween. It only takes one or two 30"ers in March to change that. But you are correct snow usually melts quickly with sun and Chinooks.

Denver gets more snow than Boston. I was confused about the comment also.

Yeah, after a little more research, I see that Denver does get more snow than Boston.  Still, I expect winters here to be considerably milder than in Boston.  Finally... I just have a walkway and my share of the sidewalk to shovel here.  No driveway.

Winters are milder then most people think. I moved here from Kansas. Everyone said you're going to hate the winters. In Kansas I wore insulated coveralls almost ever day. Here I worn them about 3 days a winter.

 
yea these forecasts are all over the place.  im just hoping for less than a foot.  but i have the snowblower on deck just in case.

 
Good time for a trip to Florida.  Thankfully I have someone plow my driveway and if needed, they will do my walks as well for no extra charge (I usually do that myself.)

Just don't drive anywhere and as long as you keep power you'll be fine. Quantity won't be an issue outside maybe the cape and east long island. Impact is gonna be something fierce though. Big hourly snow fall rates and high winds. Gonna be a mess outside of anyone's home. Hope your town has the infrastructure to clean it up asap.

 
Hard to tell with the wind but there has to be 6-8” on the ground already & it’s brick cold out there.

Only 10 more hrs to go before he snow stops.

 
Path to the garage must be maintained so I can get to the beer. I mean snowblower - Damn wind not cooperating though.

Today’s snow removal tips of the day . . .

WD40 on snow shovels is $$$

Replacing old rusty metal snow blower shoes with non abrasive poly skid shoes also a great move is you have pavers.

It’s been an unseasonably dry winter in Denver. 

 
Best of luck everyone. Detroit has been really dry so far. I’ve shoveled twice and it was probably 2 inches each time. Though we might get blasted this week.

No snow, but it certainly won’t be warm the next few days.

In Miami, it might get as cold as 39 tomorrow morning which will stun invasive and annoying cold-blooded Iguanas with many falling from trees but not dying. It's legal to kill them but it must be done humanely. The meat supposedly tastes like greasy chicken. 

Temperatures and iguanas are dropping across South Florida

Love seeing those things fall out of trees. It’s funny. Tampa area is gonna see at freezing of below the next few nights. I don’t miss this wind at all. The cold I’m fine with.

Dude for real.  For years i haven’t seen kids do this.  I used to love snow days so i could make some money for video games. Nowadays not so much.  Told them come back next time!!!

Hold on....  am I  misreading this?  Sounds like your reaction when they first showed up was "oh hell yes".  When did you tell them to come back next time...  before or after paying them?

Huh?  I was happy they came and had them shovel and then told them to come by next time it snows. 

 
Supposed to be the biggest winter storm in a few years starting tonight here in the Midwest. Continuing until Thursday. Schools already closed tomorrow. Let's see if it's as bad as they are saying.

Which place around here that's gonna get messed up isn't yet known, but we still have over a foot of snow on the ground...are then going to get about 6-10 hours of rain (so, water everywhere cause drains are clogged from the snow)...followed by about 4-6 hours of ice on top of the water soaked surfaces...followed by 12-18 hours of snow (most of which at 1" per hour rates) on top of all that ice...then the temps are gonna bottom out for 2 days after - freezing the wet heavy snow that falls on top of all that ice. 

Whoever ends up closest to the ice/snow line may be shut-in until the weekend, especially if it's rural.

This could shape up to be disastrous for a lot of people over a large area.

So just rain in the north east?

Much like NE Ohio, completely depends where you are in relation to the transition line. On or above it are terrible places to be with this one. Below it should not be a problem unless the water it leaves behind freezes when the cold air arrives on the other side of this storm.

 
bomb cyclone

What is a bomb cyclone?​

A bomb cyclone, also known as bombogenesis, is defined by a rapidly intensifying storm. That can happen when atmospheric pressure drops significantly, which is usually the result of warm and cold air masses overlapping.

Where are they likely to happen this weekend?​

Places across the northern Rockies, northern Plains and upper Midwest are experiencing temperature drops by tens of degrees in minutes.

The extremely cold airmass is expected to hit at least 24 other states along the Gulf Coast and in the eastern U.S., causing some coastal flooding and creating flash-freeze conditions on roadways across the central and southern plains, the National Weather Service said.
 
The high weekend temps here in FL will be upper 50s and low 40s overnight. They’ve already issued their warning about iguanas falling from trees due to the cold immobilizing them.
