There's an unnamed winter storm forecast for this weekend. It is slated to extend from NW Idaho and stretch to Northern New England and every where in between.
Southern Massachusetts might get grazed by it. |

Wait, your family's calendar had a baby? Are you calling it "2023 wallet calendar?"

Well RumRunn, congratulations on the new baby in the family.
I just want to comment on the dangerous polar vortex and wind chill entering the Boston area Friday afternoon through Sunday morning. Be safe out there! |

I wanted to mention the Ice Storm in Dallas, TX this past week. I find ice storms to be dangerous for cycling.

My daughter was born at the tail end of #1. It was a stressful storm for us. #14 last month was just what the name implies: wet, heavy snow over 2-3 days which got packed down before plows could get to it, etc. Minneapolis and St. Paul streets still haven't fully recovered from that one, nor have many of my bike routes. Top Twenty-four Snowfalls for Twin Cities 1. 28.4 inches: 1991 October 31 - November 3 (Halloween Blizzard) 2. 21.1 inches: 1985 November 29 - December 1 (Thanksgiving Weekend) 3. 20.0 inches: 1982 January 22 - 23 4. 17.4 inches: 1982 January 20 - 21 5. 17.1 inches: 2010 December 10 - 11 (Final "Domebuster") 6. 16.8 inches: 1940 November 11 - 13 (Armistice Day) 7. 16.7 inches: 1985 March 3 - 4 7. 16.7 inches: 1940 March 11 - 14 (tie) 9. 16.5 inches: 1982 December 27 - 28 10. 16.0 inches: 1917 January 20 - 21 10. 16.0 inches: 1999 March 8 - 9 (tie) 12. 15.8 inches: 2018 April 13-16 (Thunder Blizzard) 13. 15.3 inches: 1886 November 16-18 14. 15.1 inches: 2023 January 2-5 (Big Mess) 15. 14.7 inches: 1985 March 31 16. 14.3 inches: 1991 November 29 - 30 (Black Friday) 17. 14.1 inches: 1952 March 22 -23 17. 14.1 inches: 1983 November 27 - December 1 (tie) 19. 14.0 inches: 1899 March 10-12 20. 13.8 inches: 2011 February 20-21 21. 13.6 inches: 1966 March 22-23 21. 13.6 inches: 1983 April 14 (tie) 23. 13.1 inches: 1983 December 13-15 24. 13.0 inches: 1907 April 27-28 |
looks like I'll be in the 2"-4" range, starting w/ wet snow tonight, then finishing w/ sleet tomorrow mid-day? I guess I can ride in it but I think I have a head cold, so maybe I won't

Essex county getting any wind? Yeah, I love riding short distances in this stuff, but if you feel a bug, wait to ride another day.
Oh hey haven't met you yet - I love the "Funs-wick" myself, heading up there to visit the parents over Easter. |

It's not really going to be a wind driven event down here, but the 5 mph winds will be shifting to the ENE - you know what that means.

we started yesterday's ride 37 degrees with snow. we went 1.5 miles one way on the bike path it was down to 31 degrees and the snow was sticking. so we went the opposite way and it was melted. went 5 miles turned around and half way back it was sticking.

The Hollywood Hills storm could bring some much needed snow to the foothills of southern California, as far south as the hills of San Diego
The same storm will impact west and east of Chicago and will impact much of Massachusetts on Tuesday. They can't predict the amount in Massachusetts at this time. It's slated for 4-12 inches. And they expect to have a more accurate forecast later tonight or tomorrow. |

No winter weather in the 10 day forecast after this Saturday. Let us pray this forecast holds up.
I know what you mean, I just snuck in a 10 mile tour this afternoon, it felt very good to stretch the legs. It's been a long 2 weeks since my last real fun ride. I think the cold weather causes my lower back to lock up, but it's finally limber enough to venture out doors. |
might try to get out tonight, before the snow much later & tomorrow because I can't ride when it's deeper than a few inches, unless what I'm riding on is plowed

We may get 8" to 12" Friday March 3rd, I've been on fat tires since November, my golf course trail pass is still in effect:)
