All Activity

The roads here have been heavily salted; they did it about 6pm in anticipation.

A few bouts of light snow showers on & off the last few hours between Harrisburg & Marysville. Oh, it’s also windy here. I’m not looking forward to finding my trash can tomorrow am, lol!

NWS mentioned some decent upper level support as well. Another relative lull in snow is possible Wednesday afternoon, before a more significant shortwave trough and reinforcing cold front drop in from the Great Lakes for New Years Eve into New Years Day. Renewed cold advection and WNW flow will likely add lake and upslope influences. There may even be upper support from the left exit region of an upper jet diving into the Middle Ohio Valley. Along with better moisture, this sets the stage for an accumulating snow across the region Wednesday afternoon into Thursday. Current first- guess snow totals would have 6-7 inches in the ridges from Fayette County on south, and 2-5 inches elsewhere. Given these totals and the potential impact to holiday festivities, a Winter Storm Watch is being issued for the ridge zones from Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning. Snow would then begin to taper off Thursday afternoon as lingering lake effect/upslope snow showers.

I will always take the bigger storm. snow retention isn't my thing unless the depth has a chance to approach historic levels..which it rarely does

It's like an emotional rollercoaster every 6 hours in here lmaoo

Everything covered in white again. Nice unexpected finish to an otherwise miserable weather day.

Sheesh, just had a 30 minute stretch where the wind never went below 28 mph. Sounded like a train was going thru the back yard. Had three separate 45 mph gusts during. Currently a few flurries and 23.6/12.8 and WNW at 18 gusting to 32.

not even close

Preview for tomorrow..? getting some house shakers

Let the weenies suffer

Just had to go back out again to pick wifey up from a work party.. had to drive 20 mph all the way home I was sliding everywhere.. got to a stop sign and when I went to go was barely hitting the gas and car was pulling sideways.. its bad. Saw a salt truck salting the crap out of the roads finally!

Nice, just a coating here, but getting steady light snow atm.

Hell yes. I went to college at the university at buffalo. I very frequently LES band chased to the southtowns. So worth it. Dated a girl who went to Oswego. I’d go out there too when I could swing it. No shame in my snow chase game

Looks like around 16" imby. If that's not just average, it's only barely over imby. Lol

interesting warm excursion going on in the Arctic

Down to 32.0°. Max ended up being 32.6° this morning. Terrible.

lol yall are funny. That shit gonna be gone at 0z and it’s gonna be a funeral in here again

The Fata Morgana effect is awesome in this photo. Looking through the inversion and distortion of the horizon. Looks like the Grand Mesa on the right side of the photo.

Oh, that means nuthin'. I drove an '02 Pontiac Montana to VT/ME three times to go skiing/snowboarding. First trip it started snowing at Albany and Smug and Stowe got 14" that day as we drove in. I had to hit the parking lot three times before I got the van up into the timeshare space lol. Second trip was the one where it was like -15 degrees with 20-30 mph winds at Jay one day. Snowed there all 4 days with the Jay cloud. Little better at Sunday River the third year, only 0 and little wind.

I just heard Harbaugh started a blog devoted entirely to long range snow maps. Might be right up your alley.

nice unexpected quick inch of snow with fropa, blowing and temp dropping, tomorrow gonna be deep winter

the prevailing synoptic pattern of this winter so far feels quite similar to the second half of last winter

Roaring wind in this squall

52 mph gust at LGA last hour

This wind is nuts
