I just hate when the troll comes on and says winter is over, and also people constantly acting like its the end of the world when the models don't show anything etc. it gets old after a while. What i enjoy reading is when HP, weather guy, and other veterans of the blog give their two sense because that is how I stay one step ahead. If we waited for the tv forecast to come out we would be right on top of these storms. I like knowing about stuff and following it as it evolves, or in some cases unfortunately fizzles out.Farmingtonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793508672957135735.post-86519176527247852602014-01-24T10:10:00.192-05:002014-01-24T10:10:00.192-05:00I think Sunday night into Monday gives a chance of...I think Sunday night into Monday gives a chance of having several inches on snow fall from the clipper.

I once left here (ROC) and it was 7 or 8 F…by the time I drove through Pulaski, it was -20 F! It then "warmed" back up to 0 F once I started climbing in elevation.
