Unknown ... to me anyway. I will say that these cold nodes moving across southern Canada and clipping in here have been remarkably well lag-timed with these successive -EPO bursts. Both the Euro and CMC's recency have been showing a Jan 1-3rd cold plume with very deep 850s and low 500 mb hydrostats at the core moving N of Lake Superior ... thru Ontrario in that time range, and we see that 3 days prior there is a negative EPO burst burst again... it's been like that for that past 3 or 4 weeks. -EPO --> 3 to 5 days later we have ice fishers out there with their portable shacks.

There's a good reason, it was nearly 70 by the end of January. No idea where that snow storm report came from. The next snow event imby was February 5th/6th timeframe, with 2 inches. Then 1.5 around the 10th.

BTV has 925s at 3rd to 5th percentile of climo.

Some light snow to keep it festive while we wait for the power to be restored.

While we will not have a White Christmas we did have 2 of what we here at ChescoWx call Christmas Season Snows during the present holiday season. Christmas Season Snow represents measurable snow events during the 12 days of Christmas. Based on historical data this occurs here in Chester County on average 2 of every 3 years or 66% of seasons. Below are all of the stats regarding White Christmas chances here in Chester County from 1893 through 2025.

Just nice seeing snow in the air on Xmas Eve.

Actually have CAA right now. Temps not dropping much with daylight yet but dews def are dropping.

I wonder if the airmass can be traced back towards Siberia.

@John1122 i don’t remember the end of Jan snow storm though .

Haven't dug into any soundings, but I suspect near the northeast edge of the heavy band will do quite well with ratios. Once you get away from the good lift, the cold won't do much for ratios.

That was a little over a week after many of us got around 10 inches of snow that got wiped out by the storm you are referencing.

That is not related to winter weather as it forms in a totally different way and even if we received hail in the winter it would not count toward winter based snow/sleet totals.

soak it in..all we got

I don’t think that would’ve been a big issue with it getting cold from the north in December sun

First call from our local Met...

So forgive me if I am looking at this so say Allentown has .2 of sleet. Does that mean 2in of the 7.3in of snow shown is the .2 of sleet and then 5.3in of snow? Like the 10:1 ratio?

Merry CHRISTmas to all of you!

we CMC even half would be nice.. @Damage In Tolland approved?

Congrats Mid Cape.

man that band is going to miss me by 10 miles isn't it. Don't think we get an inch here, but maybe whiten things up

26, light snow. Still getting the moisture feed from the gulf. Hasn’t stopped snowing since yesterday at 4pm. What an awesome event

Reminds me of the 2/17/24 storm (I think that was the date?) where the heaviest snows were modeled to be near Philly, but even Staten Island and south queens got 6+ with central NJ getting up to 12”. These bands always move further north than expected. Probably wouldn’t want to be in the bullseye a few days out

I will gladly take my half foot of snow followed by .3" crust. Where do I sign?
