The Official Weather Thread!

[ReicheP]

Well folks, the mower is off, the oil and filter is changed on the 682/GX610, the chains are on and the thrower will be on by Monday.

We all probably had a bit of snow for Thanksgiving and a hint of things to come.

First chance of measurable snow is Saturday Dec 5 for eastern Pa and NJ.

SO LUBE THE THROWER FOLKS!

[Jeff in Pa]

I'm 15 miles south of Allentown,PA and we had a good inch of snow when we left for the inlaws on Thanksgiving. It was snowing all the way down to Vernfield.

[ReicheP]

That was just enough to check the blade out!

[Doog M]

Looks like the one on 12-5 might fizzle.
But on some previous years we have had snow on the 5th. It seems to be a good snow date.

2002
2003 we had a storm on the 6th
2005 dusting
2009

[ReicheP]

Yup appears that way, but looks like dusting on both sides of that date.

Anyway the 682/450 is ready to go!

[Sminkey]

- THERE WILL BE A STORM OFF THE COAST NEXT WEEK.. TRACK IS STILL UNCERTAIN!

Is your thrower ready?

[jpence]

In central pa we got an inch of snow with more possibly coming overnight. Got the plow put on my tractor and tried to start it, but dead battery and it would not charge completely . hope to have it fixed before more snow comes and i need. I will try to get pics if i can.

[J Hayes]

We have been deluged with rain in central PA. Over the past 36 hrs, our rain gauge has collected 5.5" of rain. A lot of local communities have had emergency water rescues and evacuations.

Wpxi in PGH today used a formula for water to snow ratio its about 10 to 1 or 55" of snow where you are ---- WOW !!

[Sminkey]

Keepin the fingers crossed! It's pretty cold here so there should be no worries as they're calling for 4-8" of snow by sunday morning!!!

[JohnathanB]

Blower is lubed and ready on the 1450!

Update: LAME!!! Man I love the weather, hate the weatherman . Got home this afternoon and NWS didn't have the advisory up anymore, Only got maybe 1/4" today, I was so excited to use my cubs, errrrrrrrr!

[ReicheP]

"Chance" of a decent Miller B type storm to run up the coast this Sunday eve into Monday. Lube the thrower and stay tuned!

[Bill Decker]

Getting socked here tonight in WNY. No where near as bad as Buffalo's 2-3 feet but we should have a foot or more by tomorrow so they say, and the weekend is looking to be a bear as well. Black ice and drifting here, winds 15-25MPH keeping the N-S highways bad.

[cbingaman]

It's been doin it's thing here since about 1:00 this afternoon. When I came home from work we had enough to only cover the grass, wasn't even laying on the roads. Just went out at 6:30 to the auto parts cause I needed a light bulb for the 107 and there is now as I type this about 6 inches on the ground and the roads and they are getting pretty slick allready! I have the black sheep of the crew here for the winter to do the plowing at my house. I know it ain't RED but it is a dream plowing with it compared to the 100.

[JohnathanB]

6-8 inches here on the mountain with a busted 1450....grrrrrrrr

regards,
JohnathanB
