NH Winter/SH Summer 2020-21 Discussion Thread

Nice. We might have 10 consecutive ice days, but it got up to 18°C earlier in the month.

Canada has some weird names...

Mild air coming in. It's 13°C in Ireland but still only 1°C here. Not for long.

Looking more likely that I'll get snow accumulation with models pushing it southeastward. NOAA now showing Alexandria with 70-80% chance of at least an inch. South Louisiana may have the most issues with freezing rain.

The cold, wind, and snow has made it to Albuquerque

We have about three inches of snow here in Norman. But it's blowing and drifting a lot, so some spots only have an inch, and others have several inches. Sadly we didn't get quite enough wind for it to count as a blizzard. Visibility was around 1/4 to 1/2 mile (~1/2 km) for much of the storm. It's still snowing a bit, but the heaviest bands have passed us. I'll go measure it in about an hour. I went for a 45-minute walk this afternoon, and the cold was brutal. It was 7°F (-14°C) with a -10°F (-23°C) windchill. I wore two pairs of gloves on my hands to keep warm, but I couldn't wear a scarf or mask without my glasses getting unbearably fogged up, so my face was super cold, especially if I was walking north into the wind.

We have another chance at a couple inches of snow on Tuesday night, but it shouldn't be quite as cold then.

I find it incredible that Corpus Christi at the same latitude as Tampa at near sea level is forecast to have an ice day tomorrow where it won't get above freezing all day (high of 32F). That's just nuts.

Jesus fuck. I've never seen such a massive expanse of winter storm warnings (pink shade). From the AZ/NM border all the way up to New England, that covers about 2,500 miles (4,000 km)! It looks like about 85-90% of the country has some sort of winter weather/cold weather warning or advisory at the moment.
