2024 severe weather!

[Northern NH Mike]

Snow flying in Franconia Notch NH this morning and afternoon. Coating on the Front Five at Cannon.

 

[thewoodlands]

It just started to snow, that's it.

 

[thewoodlands]

Possible Lake Effect coming in.

Upstate NY’s lake effect snow season could start late next week

Meteorologists caution that the forecast can change over the next week.

Looks like things may get pretty lively here by Tuesday. There's a big low sitting off the coast with exceptionally low pressure. Folks like Highbeam might want to check the generator and battery supply.

Here it's still dry as... Flower?...
63 today. First stove time seems to be the first week in December - but then I'm traveling.

Minisplit time.
Last year November had 321 hrs of burning. This year 0.

This typhoon is sitting off our coast right now. The eye is the lowest recorded pressure known here, equal to a cat 4 hurricane. Thankfully, it is far enough away to only cause 50-70 mph winds through the passes and the areas below them. The coast is expecting 70+ mph winds. It's going to cause a mighty river of rain to dump into northern California.

 

[stoveliker]

I woke up with the welcome sound of some significant rain here. I believe the first since mid August.

 

[PaulOinMA]

Rain finally here today. Should knock down brush fires and reduce fire warning level.

Was able to clear branches from the dry pond and stream beds earlier this month. Cleaned it for migrating ducks in the spring.

Yep just started raining here, we're supposed to get an inch. Don't remember the last time it rained.

 

[begreen]

So glad that you are hearing and seeing good rainfall. Hope that works to snuff out most of the wildfires and let the crews get in to mop up.

We are recovering from the bomb cyclone off the coast. Fortunately, we dodged the bullet, but many just 20 miles east of us did not. Over a half-million people lost power. Some won't be getting back on the grid for a few days still. Another lesser, but still powerful low is expected to hit overnight.

@Highbeam how are you doing?

 

[gthomas785]

Of course, five years ago this would've been snow....

 

[stoveliker]

It's still raining. A full day

 

[PaulOinMA]

And I cleaned the gutters earlier this week. 🙂

 

[bogieb]

Finally some rain! Nice slow soaking rain at about 1" in 18 hours (still coming down) so it is able to soak into the ground. Should knock back the brush fires from starting. May turn into a wintery mix for my area later. Won't make up the nearly 8" of deficit in the last 2 months, but we'll take what we can get.

 

[thewoodlands]

We had more rain last night and again this morning with some winds.

 

[thewoodlands]

We've had some pretty good rain today but it stopped so I took the dog for a walk. We weren't outside very long when it started coming down pretty hard again, the dog wanted to head home so we did, once we made it back in the garage, the power went out. I hadn't run the generator in about three months but had it on a battery maintainer, it fired right up.

 

[thewoodlands]

I'm glad we're not in this area.

@ctreitzell

I see that Biarritz had 27 C (81 F) *overnight low* last week. You had snow.
Crazy.

It looks like winter finally starts here this weekend. Lower 40s during the day and 28-32 during the night.
Right when I'm leaving for travel for a week for work... Maybe the wife will be able to keep the stove running but she forgot most of it since last year...

 

[thewoodlands]

I saw on the late local news last night we could be in for Lake Effect snow, this morning they're calling for 4 to 30 inches. I don't think we'll get anything close to 30, more like 6 to 8.

 

[thewoodlands]

​

Another system on the way.

 

[thewoodlands]

The crazy weather continues.

 

[PaulOinMA]

Will put a lot of water in the vernal pool / pond in the woods that migrating ducks use. Glad I cleaned it out last month.

I spend a fair bit on food to help the ducks in the spring. 🙂

 

[thewoodlands]

NYS already put on a State of Emergency for certain counties (ours is in there) looks like we'll get some good wind gust with a possible 16 inches of snow.

 

[thewoodlands]

We're getting some pretty good winds with snow that are causing whiteouts today, there are times when you can't see the woods.

 

[johneh]

Clear and cold this morning, the first day in a week it has not
snowed, rained, freezing rain or some other form of precip.
Will be nice to see that big yellow ball again
