We’re not in a bad trend if you want cooler temperatures. So the models are being a tease for an event about two weeks out? So what. It’s not as if that hasn’t happened many times before. Bottom line is there’s still real possibilities, which is also about all one could realistically say yesterday when the models were spitting out eye candy.

Looks like I may hit the jackpot this time. It’s certainly been cold enough. Daytime stronger winds have added to the wind chill. Kinda looking forward to this. I am concerned for people and animals that can’t take shelter. This is a strong storm for us comparatively. Wind isn’t too bad. 8-10 mph right now. We’re over due a good snowfall. Currently 35.* Low of 24 tonight.

What does the day of the arctic blast look like? I want to know more clearly the region you are focusing on.

It’s barely any more over than it was 12 hours ago. So far out there.

Cloudy day
