Really not saying much. It's been November in NYC since the first week of October, this is the longest November ever.

My drive home yesterday had to have been one of the two or three worst in my life. I was out on country roads that were pure white, some hellish mixture of ongoing snow and freezing rain earlier in the day, visibility poor, feeling the car pulling out from under me every now and again. Took two hours for a drive that's normally just under an hour (and not because of traffic).

Bracing for a blizzard over the next 4-5 hours where I am (I think through a lot of Ontario). Happily, in for the night and the weekend if need be. I might venture out on foot for a coffee tonight, though.

Good luck! never having been snowed in before, it sounds kind of fun
Or a horror movie
― Andy the Grasshopper, Friday, 3 March 2023 23:34 (one year ago) link
Thanks. I literally don't even know what a blizzard means. Is it just a whole bunch of snow, or are there other things involved? If I step out, I don't want to end up like Warren Beatty in McCabe & Mrs. Miller. (Of course, the bullet he took didn't help there.)

Got all the way to the end of the driveway and turned back. I now know that a blizzard involves a very tangible wind component.
― clemenza, Saturday, 4 March 2023 00:48 (one year ago) link
And thunder. And lightning.

Got to have strong winds and poor visibility, but especially strong wind.

We definitely met all those conditions, and it was sustained for 4-5 hours. Amazingly, power/cable never went it out--it generally does for much less.

The guy plowing my side-street (10 houses, 45 degree incline) got stuck halfway and had to go back for a different vehicle. I could hear Robert Shaw chiding him: "You're going to need a bigger plow."

Lowest winter snowfall totals in NYC since record keeping began: 2.3 inches, breaking the previous record of 2.8 inches in 1972-73 (Central Park totals).
Today marks one full year since NYC got as much as 1.5 inches of snow in one day. This appears to be rare.

Get used to it. We had zero snow in DC this year, which is very rare (but will be increasingly common until snow is a distant memory). The first five months of 2023 have been the warmest ever in DC history, akin to Memphis, TN.

We got nearly 10 inches yesterday, biggest single snowfall in Knoxville in 28 years. It has basically just shut down everything for the week, which is fine by me. It's very pretty.

random stuff i saw teenagers sledding in or on today:
-the drawer of a filing cabinet (didn't work)
-a kitty litter box (not bad, but looked impossible to steer)
-a flattened cardboard box (fell apart the instant it hit the snow)
― Deflatormouse, Wednesday, 17 January 2024 02:14 (three months ago) link
Back in my day, they made cardboard boxes sturdy enough to sled on!
