LP weather

[judy]

I gotta do laundry and pack my clothes. Anyone know what the end of the week weather predictions are for Lake Placid? Hell, how's the weather been like in general up in NY state? I may be able to take a guess at it from that.

jude. think yesterday and plan for at least that cold this week-end. am guessing that there might be snow come this week-end, esp. since we're heading up in the mountains.

Go to Weather.com and you should be able to get the forecast
for this weekend.

I know I could go there, I just don't always trust weather.com

So, you're saying that you are more likely to trust the ramblings of a bunch of hockey fans than the National Weather Service? :-)

I've been keeping an eye on the weather via http://www.lakeplacidweb.com/ the last few days. Right now... it's cold. (Shocker.)

The forecast as of this moment says chance of rain or snow each day through the weekend, highs in the lower to mid 30s. I would much rather have 30 and snowing than 33 and raining, lemme tell ya. But 40 and sunny would do in a pinch...

i haven't trusted the weather forecasters since high school when they would predict lots of snow and no school and wake up the next morning to find no snow.

i just wanted to know if it's cold or not and whether the temps have been consistent or if it's been as wacky as it has been here

[judy]

thank you

It's been wacky

[tml5]

According to weather.com, it's been just as wacky as Ithaca, but consistently colder.  Since Ithaca was 20s yesterday and 30s today, that puts Placid at teens yesterday and 20s today (or thereabouts).  Weather.com says that it's going to warm up and then get cold again, but what the heck do they know?  

Wear lots of layers.  That way, if it's cold you'll be warm, and if it's warm you can easily shed clothing and not be too warm.  That's my plan.  And I'm planning for snow.  If I don't, it'll be a blizzard up there.

It can blizzard all it wants after we get there safely. I could live with being stranded for an extra day if I had to be.

A man after my own heart!  I've been saying that for years!
