Yes IRR

It's funny for a retired met we never see any real data from you.What is your depth. If you need lessons we can provide official methods

Cold morning with -10's/-20's inland with +/- sd's along the shore. -29 the lowest I've seen at Seagull Lake up on the border. Because of the clear, calm conditions, temps did a quick sunrise drop.

It's 11am lol

I wonder if everyone's thermometers are being impacted by reflected sunlight from the snow? The commercially available ones are generally shielded from above, so reflected light from below could raise them?

Thank you/him for his service. He is in the IRR, I assume? Hopefully not recalled....good luck.

RAP illustrates my thoughts. Need to be able to get moisture and the cold to push far enough south, before cold/dry air shuts off the moisture. Moisture North of the warm front may be somewhat limited but concentrated in a hand or two they may over perform. The RAP is a bit further north than the rest of guidance, so I would expect the green zone to set up right along I85

A cumulative ice + snow map might be more interesting, though that won't make most in Middle TN any happier. Glad I somehow got in the blue.

It’s going to be extremely band-dependent with isolated accumulation but whoever gets a band can probably do 2 maybe 3”. Agreed, think border counties/Southern Va best shot. Will not be widespread accumulation anywhere

Grandson just finished his 4 years now home but seems recall is very possible

Torching here in Mount Joy.... up to 32.4.

Interesting. Looking at everybody's temperature reports, it seems the airport temperatures are usually cooler. But one would think it would be the other way around with all the asphalt?

Seems to be slightly overdoing the cooling caused by snow cover.

Some know some ski in Vermont

doesn't look like we will hit it today.. streak continues

Nah, I love Steve...we can take round houses at one another with no animosity it's been so long haha. We are both pig-headed.

I'm the same especially based on how the GFS has been this winter. It's like the boy that cried wolf. I blame Ralph. Every time someone blurts out "Buckle Up" The pattern relaxes and we are here bitching about the lack of precip. We got a few more weeks to keep an eye on then the pattern will ease, and then we all know how bi-polar March is when it comes to weather. By then I am mostly checked out as I want the warmer weather, and I want to get back into my garage drinking escapades on the weekends. In other news there were a couple flakes flying this morning in West Chester.

In fact, I think the depth is increasing yesterday and today.

The coldest 10 day stretch back in February 2015 was .1 warmer as that month was more about the longer duration February cold. 16.8 2026-02-02 16.9 2015-02-21

Life is all good, nothing is melting, no settling, looks like it fell yesterday. Winters great and we all love it.

2015 is prominently featured in the coldest 30-day periods in terms of minimum temperatures:

Oh for sure - but don’t they lead to above norm temps? Maybe I’m incorrect though

At 11:00 here in Carlisle, the temperature is 31.5 degrees after briefly touching 32.0 10 minutes ago. My low temp occurred at midnight at 19.9 degrees and remained above 20 all night. We all had busted lows overnight that occurred early. My forecast low was 13 degrees after having been set at 10 degrees in the morning forecast. That's a departure of +7 degrees. The high temp here yesterday peaked at 33.3 degrees and broke the string of sub freezing days (just barely). The forecast high for today is 33. I think I will exceed that by several degrees. So, just 2 days above freezing before dropping below again and remaining below for another week straight.

Nice overperformer yesterday to at least freshen up the snowpack. Still looks good on radar wondering if we can get another inch today.

Day 4 with a blanket of snow.
