Is it just me, or the radar in PA looking decent for some light snow later this morning/afternoon, maybe a coating to 0.5" later?

The west coast 500 mb ridge on the EPS is textbook for a major east coast snowfall, and has trended in a more favorable direction over the past several runs.

Water running off everything like crazy. If the sun comes out it’s going to be like the inside of a sprinkler head. .

15 here, 35.5 on the season

We did exactly what we needed to do in making this period work. More on the way. Deep deep winter is here.

Flurries

A little too tucky for me verbatim. But nice look overall, and something big to track again. Can't complain

Euro AI Ensemble Mean is a big hit and this is only 10:1. Ratios would be much higher

In an fairness the window i was watching was 27-29, the clipper i thought would dive and bomb at the coast. Which it does but too late for any effects but that does become our 50/50 for the weekend, so there's that.

15 inches here final. 95% snow

I've been getting some heavy flurries this morning and honestly it's probably the best snow ive seen out of this system lol.

I am going with 11" based on nearby reports, tough to measure exactly with lots of sleet/compaction, etc. but 11" for Millburn, SW Essex, and that leaves me at 29.1" on the season (basically normal for an entire season)

Anyone have the Euro at the same time? Just curious.

Thanks for that rundown!

The problem is, with the liquid equivalent and snow accumulation being observed at different sites, we don’t really have an apples to apples comparison. @TheClimateChanger does the NWS office have some sort of ASOS/AWOS or just snow obs and that’s it?

Yeah, Nobody was going to be sniffing ozone on today's, But this next one........

Is there an expectation of a 20" storm here? There has only been 1 since 1880 and it was in 1886. 1 in Flint in 67 and 2 in Saginaw in 67 and 78. This isn't a location that even remotely sniffs 20" storms ever. Boston does because they have the luxury of the ocean and Nor'easters. This isn't a reservation on you just on the discussion in general. I don't know why the same people bring this up seemingly every year and multiple times a year. It is like they never read climo for the region.

It looks likeva tornado went through my area. At it height yesterday there was almost a continuous cacophony of trees snapping in the woods trees that were the canopy trees, older ones. Most of my slash pine have been delimbed. My southern Magnolia is battered. Had two large trees just fall over in yard, so far nothing hit house. Hoping the sun can do some work on this ice today these trees need some relief

Yours truly. But what the Euro is showing is 1/25/00 on steriods...the illegal ones!

Just talked to a friend who lives at 2700 ft near Big Meadows. She said she never received a flake of snow but a couple inches of sleet.

anybody got totals for these cities? New York City: Boston: Philadelphia: Washington DC: Hartford: Albany:

nice little band moving through now. roads are back to white

The was the craziest winter storm I have witnessed in my 35 years in the upstate. If you would have told me that we would have a winter storm roll through and drop 1 inch of precipitation with the temperatures between 25F and 30F for the duration, I could imagine multiple scenarios from 12 inches of snow to over a 1/2 inch of crippling ice to over 3 inches of sleet. What we did end up with was maybe an inch of sleet with a very minimal glaze of ice to end it. This set up is exactly what I have been waiting on for years. Definitely underperformed but I am thankful we did not see the ice they were calling for a la Nashville or Mississippi.

If 14” is official that would make @pasnownutthe winner with an entry of 13.9”, just edging out @Itstrainingtime(14.2) who wasn’t even in the state.

Tip... I've come to really appreciate your knowledge and presentation when you delve into this upcoming pattern. It takes a lot to look at all look at all the pieces of the puzzle and try to put them together. It's going to be an exciting week leading up to next weekend and beyond. Thank you again for starting this thread!
