Christmas Eve
>> Monday, December 24, 2012
The brief snow is over. I was slightly surprised as it was steady enough to stick quickly including on all secondary and main roads. In the end it unofficially was record by me at about two inches. Which means for here and many other places it will indeed be a White Christmas.
And some pictures:
All the pictures are somewhat interesting. The first one taken at the top from my deck also happened to catch my breath which captured the artistic white streak on the top left. The second one is looking out front with the snow falling, and the third catches the end of the snowfall while looking at the tree coated in the back.
The storm all featured a classic and key component to winter storms. When it started to snow it was about 36 or 37. Within an hour in was hovering around 33. Once that snow starts to moisten the atmosphere the temps can really dip quickly.
Some final notes. I took a look at the latest run for Wednesday and it pushed the warm air further west which would give us a better chance to see some rain. If I am home in time tomorrow I can possibly get a post up to include the last model run I will see before the storm comes.

RD-Nice pictures!
We were out yesterday afternoon and got home around 9:30pm. Where we were in NJ, light snow started around 7:30pm and by 8:30pm there was about an inch on the grass and very slippery streets! Very difficult driving until we go to main roads. Then clear and safe. Made it up the hill to our house.
This morning there is about 1/4-1/2 inch on the ground and everything is white. Streets are clear and safe.
Will keep checking your blog for updates on Wednesday's "storm." Very interested in what's going to happen in the afternoon/evening because we're supposed to visit someone in the evening...probably not, though, if the weather doesn't turn better.
Merry Christmas!!!
