Winter Weather 25/26

[DomB]

PS Saturday I am shifting my powerwall to backup mode in case power goes out. If panels get covered should give me 48 hours normalish use and perhaps a week if we just keep heat, hot water, fridge. Hopefully I don't have to find out. Assuming panels are covered in snow the whole time. If panels clear not too much of an issue. The only bad thing is I can't L2 charge my cars but will fill em up before the storm.

I practiced my warm up outfit for the half tomorrow this morning. I looked like the Michelin man with all the layers. Feel should be -2F when I start!

What's Behind the Apple Weather App on the iPhone Forecasting So Much Snow?​

Yesterday phone said:
"Tully 10-13” Sunday starting at high noon with 7-8” Monday stopping at 9am."

Today it says:
Tully 11-14” Sunday starting at 10am with 4-5” Monday stopping at 5am."

So coming in earlier and 17-21" went to 15-19”.

Gonna be a cold one.

Phone ain’t predicting much wind <10mph with gusts to <20mph when it dumps
but gusts up to 25-30mph after lunchtime on Monday.

Skiing just a couple hours today & it got nippy..
Gonna break out the really nippy stuff next time.

cats maybe a 12 or so ...maybe a little more
daks prob a little less...
LI...yikes...if it changes to rain..then a lot of slop...a change over is looking more and more

My brother in DC. They could get 6 inches, or they could get 20.

Guys on DCSki are chatting about places for "touring" in the DC area.

Winter Storm Warning for 28 States

The storm system that led to me being stuck in Dallas for two nights trying to get to Albuquerque several years ago looked like that map. Friends from the midwest, mid-Atlantic, and Boston were all delayed a day or more. Only one who made the original flight was from California.
