Thursday November 9

By now you may have heard about the arctic blast on the way over the next few days. While it is a sharp contrast to the 70s we had a few days ago. We have areas of drizzle and light rain already today making it feel more raw. I understand the sarcastic approach that it is November and what else should we expect. The purpose of this post is for the extreme hard core snow lovers anxious to seek out any flake that will fall within a 100 mile radius. It is also for the reality that it is going to be abnormally cold and the actual temperature is only part of the story.

First: About The Flurries

I need to preface this: The arctic front will open Lake Effect snow showers. But this usually do not make it past the mountains, unless there us upper level support. There is NOT a lot of moisture here, so we really are talking about flurries. Stickage with ground coverage is very slim to none for our immediate area. Also, the timing will be before sunrise… So you will need a light to see anything.
