All Activity

Looks like a bit of a later start per nam and hrrr recent runs? Hopefully no impact to school dismissal. .

06z Euro is southeast with the heavy secondary defo band

Ready for 1" here and 7" in Harvard. This is RFDs chance to escape the sub 30 club

I mainly posted to show the continuing snow hole near State College. It’s difficult for the map generating program to get the grids perfect with such a large gradient involved with the snowfall. This map below has some added numerical percentages. But the resolution is always going to struggle unless you can create a more zoomed in map.

Well hello there pinned severe thread. First time we've done one since February 25, 2017 IIRC when Ian made one for that event (That event produced an EF-1 in La Plata IIRC).

Going to be some back to back cold cold nights. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Going to be a huge temp crash tomorrow during the day. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Latest on storms risk on Monday

This is a more potent cold front and storm system coming in tonight and tomorrow. Again, we will go from heavy rainfall to snow on the backside, and it looks like we may see some flow snow into Tuesday now. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

37 / 20 . Cloudy - stuck in the 40s. Lake cutting storm pumps southerly flow later tonight and tomorrow ahead of front. Pending on clouds and rain ahead of the main front, areas could get to 70. Strong storms Monday - heavy rai , winds gusts , further southwest enhanced to moderate risk w/ islolated tornadoes. Area wide 1 inch of rain between sun night and overnight mon - tue. Could see some power disruptions with winds/wet grounds etc. Colder : 3/17 -3/18. Overall near normal / slightly cooler 3/ 19 - 3/24 before moderation warmer overall but still a bit back and forth and uncertain extent of ridge / warmth.

North Georgia may see some flakes in the air. I wouldn't expect anything to lay down there this time of the year. But yeah some blowing snow sure.

Very impressive setup. Especially for March. Looks like a pretty exciting event. I still wish I was up in the UP for the blizzard. If I wasn't back to my busy season I would be up in Marquette right now.

You might be closer to 45-50

SPC mentioning the potential for a long track tornado or two. Oh man.

Our summer forecast will probably come down to how far east this ridge can expand since it has been stuck in place since November. This month we are getting dual ridges out West and in the East. Could be some very impressive summer warmth expanding across the CONUS if we get a similar linking up between the ridges like we have had this month. But the magnitude of the coming Western warmth will be higher than in the East even though several spots like NYC experienced their earliest 80° warmth on record.

Ours came out last week the first day of that warm spell. I heard it just a few the first day of the I'm warm spell... The next day it was like a symphony.

Was wondering if peepers would get going soon

Birds are now here in full effect. Also noticed the peepers a couple nights ago. only the largest snowbanks are left here. No ground cover.

Wow, haven’t seen this in a while. Maybe August 2023 was the last moderate risk day here? At least the QLCS holds off until after school dismissal and kids have a chance to get home.

Well that was a swing and a miss for MSP. Idk what it’ll take to get a storm to live up to the hype around here. .

Happy to have nothing to do with this one on Selection Sunday March 15th is for 65 degrees and day drinking. Hard pass on any snow.

Very active Monday likely. If we get higher dews/temps and more sun than forecast then wind/tornado threat goes way up
