Severe Weather thread.

Good luck. I hope your friends and family made to through ok.

 

anyone here really into personal weather stations? I want to set up a remote one but it looks like the choices are pretty limited. anyone know of good cellular service weather stations that would have an anemometer that reads more than 100mph? id love some halfway realtime data while a hurricane rolls over.

 

Davis weather stations makes some good equipment in excess of 180 MPH but expect to pay $$$$

 

Is money really a concern with hobbies? I think this group understands haha

 

My place in Cocoa was unscathed, but my mom’s house in South Daytona flooded pretty bad. My younger brother was there with her and both of their cars are trashed. Today the flooding had cleared enough so we could start pulling furniture, carpet, laminate floors, and drywall.

 

Lol……

 

Damn sorry for your mom. My area...Palm Coast just got a shit ton of rain, but when they built the city they did a good job on the storm water system.

When I drove down to Ormond Beach to check my mom's winter place, the father south I drove the worst the damage was. Not too bad, but just worst. Her place didn't even look like a storm went thru.

 

Haven’t tried it yet but couldn’t pass on posting it here:

I'm sure everyone who watches this thread and is/is going to be affected by this storm/front has more important things to do than look here, but man oh man is this a good system happening now

 

Forecasting 2.5ft of snow where I'm at. Won't be nearly as bad as the last major storm that dumped 5ft. Added to my firewood last night before this storm comes through.

.

 

I won't have it as bad as some but around 4 pm tomorrow is when I'll get the worst of it. Which will last a few hours before Temps slowly climb (not much) and winds subside. Not much snow to go along with it though. 1 to 3 total. Just hoping my power holds out.

 

Watching this closely. We down south and the house up north is empty.

Been watching web cams all over the US steadily.

 

Yes, this could be a once in a generation… or two storm. Hardly any snow, a bit of black ice, but dang the chill. Good news it’ll be close to 70 for camping Wednesday

 

Looks like a very memorable storm.

Continuing to monitor the thing.

 

Have hit the lowest temp I should see but nowhere near the winds yet. Decent gusts are starting but predicting 55mph gusts now still around 4 pm. Then they slowly subside.

Craziest thing right now for me though is how low the humidity is. We usually still have a decent amount of humidity in the winter but damn is water drying up crazy fast. Even with my furnace humidifier on.

 

I just stood the garbage can up… 3x. Forget it

 

Last day for us, I'm officially sick of it. It's been a week.

I've turned the thermostat in my house up.

 

How much snow you got so far? And how much is left from the last crazy storm?

 

Not too much on the ground yet but very poor visibility. I think on Sat into Sunday we’re getting it up the ass
