Around 17, I just looked at the USGS on line and they put the peak of our hill at 1800. Of course that preview also puts LeRaysville's label just over the hill and in the wrong county. It does tend to be a lot colder than Philly here. Right now its 23F here and 35F in Philly. That's the difference between skiing and slogging. The weather patterns seem to change around the Lehigh Tunnel when we're driving. Our weather tracks with Central New York but South of that snow belt that starts around Tully/Marathon.

I agree buster, I bought a new boiler a month ago, but had to stash it in a friends garage because the lawn around to the cellar door is gumbo.

About 1 inch of snow, but no schools closed and the government opened on time, and it's the first snowfall of the season, so everyone has forgotten what to do.

Utter chaos in the DC area. The traffic here is usually just below the saturation point, so a little snow is enough of a catalyst to cause the traffic fluid to crystallize.

I'm glad I walk and then take Metro underneath it all.

The talking heads on TV are doing their chicken little imitation, running in circles screaming, the temperature is falling, the temperature is falling.
Sure am glad they told me to wear a coat if I go outside, I wouldn't have thought of that.

National news says more than 200 million Americans will see lower than 20 degrees F tonight.

Grav, you live in a county called Barren? That's depressing.

Yesterday afternoon at my house: 71 degrees.
Expected tonight: 22 degrees.

This. Only we don't have a windshield factor. We do have a windchill factor...local news says 20 to 30 below, factoring in the factor.

Crazy cold. Takes your breath away cold. Painful cold. Cold that makes 20 some degrees feel like a tropical oasis.

I really hate cold.
