Moderators telejunkie Posted December 22, 2022 Moderators Share Posted December 22, 2022 Oh damn.....HRRR saying I may wake up to 6" by morning....guess that seems to be the trend with this one. Went down to my ex's to start up the generator and show her how to get it plugged into the dryer outlet and configure the panel...but the pull start wouldn't engage. Decided instead of dicking around with it and probably only making it worse, brought it up here to my next door neighbor's small engine shop (beast must weight at least 150lbs)...not easy getting into my back seat as it's too big for the trunk. Sweet...now will have a generator if I lose power. Sorry Sheila...but not sorry. She at least has a wood stove. I've got no heat when I lose power. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can mix out well we could get to about 35-40 sustained for a bit I might be on the high side, this is RDG Spoiler I gotta stay away from Mount Washington's weather it's really amazing the conditions it sees. Quote A massive low pressure system will produce hazardous weather conditions at the higher summits over this forecast period. This system's pressure is forecasted to drop from around 1000 millibars Thursday night to the upper 950s by Friday. Therefore, since a lower pressure means a stronger storm system, this low pressure system will undergo rapid intensification as it tracks west of the higher summits. This strengthening system will translate to powerful winds, periods of heavy snow, ice accumulation, and white-out conditions at the higher summits during this forecast period. Thursday morning will start with mostly clear conditions due to lingering high pressure. Weather conditions will change by Thursday afternoon as the approaching storm pushes high pressure east away from the region. The summit will quickly become shrouded in fog by Thursday afternoon as southerly winds advect moisture into the area. Snow will start by Thursday evening, and could become heavy early during the night due to a surge of cold air filtering in with the system. Strong pressure gradients will lead southeast winds to increase Thursday night, with gusts likely nearing 100 mph at the summit. Precipitation will change to a mix of freezing rain and sleet near midnight Thursday as strong southeasterly winds usher in warmer air. Winds will continue to increase Friday with gusts frequently exceeding 100 mph and possibly even reaching as high as 150 mph. Freezing rain and sleet will continue Friday, with the chance for half an inch to an inch of ice accumulation at the higher summits during the day. Precipitation will transition back to snow by Friday night as a strong cold front filters in much colder air. Temperatures will plummet Friday night, with significantly colder air and elevated winds dropping wind chill values to 35 below to 25 below.

TLChip Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) Wow, an extra day for Christmas break does it really matter? I think it's good, enjoy time with family and hangout at home you could call it forced family fun time. Life is short enjoy it 🍻 I still never tried the boiling water in extreme cold; MJ got any juicy terms for this?

My daughter is in the kitchen now baking christmas desserts in case we lose power for a while. 👩🍳 Time to get into Obs mode. Currently 32F out there.

Yea we will see forecasting instantaneous gusts is rather hard. If we can clear out properly before nightfall there is a chance in the late afternoon if things can mix properly we have winds at 925mb about 45knots and 850mb around 50-55 knots. Getting a random 42knot reading isn't too out of the question. Again assuming we can clear out in the afternoon once night hits I doubt we go much above 40mph but damn cold!
