Over the last 24-48 hours, Old Man Winter has reminded us who is in charge here with a hell of an Arctic blast, causing lake effect snow (amazing for February!) allowing for a lot of it to show up on the first visible satellite images of the morning (via SimuAWIPS):
Editor’s note: I’m still figuring out what this blog is. Many other projects have had to come to the forefront, but I’ve not forgotten this…
Looks like I’ll get to see my first snow of meteorological winter (or at least the aftermath) late Wednesday night/Thursday morning. Fortunately it will be a short-lived event, so it will just be enough to enjoy it without it hanging around so long that it sticks to everything and I have to remember life with snow chains.
I’ve particularly enjoyed Wes Junker’s analysis of this event (Junker is the winter weather expert at the Washington Post’s Capital Weather Gang group weather blog).
I’ll try to shoot some photos Wednesday night or first thing Thursday morning.
