Bastardi likes a big storm this weekend – not as big as the one in December, but substantial enough. Details to follow once others start chiming in…or he starts backpedaling.
Addendum 1/26 AM
Things are looking good on this story. Looks like a Friday/Saturday thing. It seems like the big thing for this particular storm will be the temperature – it will be COLD. It looks like we could get a lot of the snow at temperatures at or below 20 F. This could lead to high snow ratios – colder air tends to make puffier snow. This is looking like quite the winter for the mid-atlantic. Last I heard NYC was still in there for a direct hit – I’ll advise this evening after I watch everyone’s videos on the subject.
Addendum 2
This has nothing to do with this weekend’s storm, but how about Mt Washington losing the wind speed record. It wasn’t even close.
Good. I’ll let my co-workers know. They think you’re awesome since you called the storm in December. Keep us posted!
I have people coming in from all over the globe this weekend (Vancouver, Istanbul, Florida, Virginia). Will their travel plans be impacted??
Yes, NY is featured in this storm more than the last. It’s no sure thing, but I have two weather wags calling for it.
I’ll expect regular updates between now and then.
By “Friday/Saturday” here, you do mean, “Friday night into Saturday morning,” right? Thereby allowing theboyfriendsparentals safe passage back to DC as scheduled on Sat. evening, granting me the Sunday Alone Time™ I was promised? PLEASESAYYES.
I don’t care if it snows Friday night — I can walk the House of Brews for Lara’s thing, and that’s the only thing I care about.
I don’t know the answer to your timing question Bess. I’ll let you know when I find out.
