Starting to see a trend in models that might give me a dusting for Christmas. That would be a good way to get this started
 
Might be a dumb question but at what thickness will ice bring down power lines/ tree limbs? Thanks
This graph explains the possible results from wind and ice combined.

Next week is going to be crazy. Been a long time since we have had this much potential for a good winter storm.
 
OT: It's a good thing that I don't care for American, because when I tried to go there, a new tab opened twice on me with the BS that I've been infected with "spyware".

They already have a storm thread for the 29th started by one of the most annoying members over there.

Same thing happened to me with the spyware message when I clicked on the thread.

The third poster in the thread is even more annoying and a big reason I don't go there much anymore.

They only had 15 people on the thread, too. I wish Matthew East would come over here, though.

Went over to see the circus and had the same thing too.
 
To be fair; that kind of stuff happens when you run ads on websites.

Usually, you partner up with an ad company that shows rotating ads. You put it on your website to make some extra income off clicks & impressions.
Sometimes, the company who's running ads can get hacked or infected with malware.
Most large ad companies are supposed to weed those bad ones out before they do damage.

In this case, one of the ads has been reported as malware and the ad provider that AMWX uses, hasn't removed the bad image/url yet.

We are still using Google Adsense here, which is very well moderated. We will be switching in the future, though. We'll try to avoid this issue at all cost.
 
Largely staying out of the discussion(s) as it/they does/do not pertain down here; but truly enjoying reading all of it in any event.
Here's really wishing and hoping that all of y'all points north get whatever frozen precip you want!
If anyone has a couple extra $'s, box a little bit and FedEx it on down ... LOL
Really - Good Luck! :cool:
Best!

Edit: At the very least, here's hoping that Tony gets 3' of sleet ... :D

My oldest daughter turns 14 on Jan. 5. This is the closet shot I've had at a birthday snow for her in her life. I'm usually throwing in the towel by now. Luv this pattern.
 
For all of those saying "hey, bama got their snow already" that is true, but the whole top half of the state was not in on that one.
