re: Deep South winter storm and arctic outbreak - Jan. 20-23 timeframe

I understand your point. It's just annoying is all. Anyways, I'll drop it. I apologize for being a downer to people in here. Hope everyone is prosperous and has fun then this turns into nothing.

Here’s a friendly observation… log off or STFU. None of us assholes on here wishing for snow or no snow actually have any effect on what happens Tuesday.

Edit- saw your reply just above, that’s the spirit. Hope everyone comes out of it fine, and all that happens is some days off with family and friends, good food, and lifelong memories. Cheers.

You’re referring to the low res NAM version that maintained a sleet vs snow line much further north (LA/MS state line). The much more high res version, 3km resolution, moves that line to the damn coast.

Explain that to me like I am Bob Breck.

The lower the Dew Point the lower the air temperature can go

Any moisture in air turns to solid instead of liquid form. When you get a frost instead of dew on the ground.

Chicken, smoked sausage, andouille gumbo. Making my chicken broth today, and chopping everything up. Let sit outside overnight. Tomorrow, roux and add everything all day. Outside overnight, and the warm up to eat all day Tuesday. Serving with Zatarains honey butter cornbread. Will imagine I live in Wyoming on Tuesday…

The weather forecast for my area are all over the place. Snow from 2 to 8 inches and a low temp from 20 to 12 on Tuesday. Winter weather is hard to predict.

Bread aisle at my local Walmark:

Same here Bosc. I’m in Denham. The only thing I know for certain is freezing for most of the week. And gumbo in my belly.

But I’m feeling pretty good about some snow. And more than possibly I’ve ever seen. I have a small inverter generator, 20 gallons of ethanol free gas, and a big stack of firewood with my wood and starter already built in the fireplace. Just ready to light up. Life feels good.
