Shouldn't you all be watching stranger things on Netflix right now. New episodes or at 8 pm

Well yeah that one too

I need 4.5” to hit 10” as well which would leave me with needing 90” to hit 100

Down to 27F

Yup. I need 6.5 to meet my December long term average. It's looking possible.

One of my first weather memories ever was 15 years ago today. Young and in elementary school, I had many other hobbies except for weather. But my parents would watch evening news on Channel 1 (back when time Warner was a thing) and we all saw the bulletin about a blizzard warning for 12/26/10, for 12-18” (which would be increased even further the next day). Parents said they would do a quick run to the grocery store just in case things got too bad over the next few days, and referenced the 1996 blizzard as the reason for their precaution. I didn’t track the storm but I remember it being very windy, very cold; and the 20” of snow when waking up on 12/27. I eventually picked up weather as a hobby in August 2011 during Irene, but aside from run of the mill thunderstorms; the 12/26/10 blizzard was the first time weather became somewhat of an interest to me. If only I could have tracked it in real time

Nice run from the 0z HRRR for NYC north and east. It even keeps light snow going into Saturday morning. Sleet mixes in briefly to the NY border. But... major snow to ALB, plowable to ORH, and accumulating to BOS is a bit of a red flag for us. The 700mb low is getting pretty far northeast before getting shunted south... For now we're all still very much in the game but still feeling nervous.

In your area agree 100%

Nam rolling...

Down to 30 here.

Yeah, funny thing is I tend to remember tracking systems more so than what they actually did.......I am too new up here to have that much of a system memory, moved up here in December of 2014 and still suffering from the NAM/Euro failure that season.

Banding sig was north of us

Blowing and drifting of the snow down here, HRRR has 20-30 mph wind gusts

Agreed 100%

Looks like rapid spread into PA around noon EST, could be some freezing drizzle earlier than that. Maybe if you left very early (like 0400) you could make it to destination before the storm cranks up. This storm will tend to explode over a wide area rather than moving gradually, because it needs to saturate lower levels to get started. On the GFS hourly precip panels, it covers almost none of PA at noon and most of PA at 2 p.m.

Stop posting the kuchera nonsense

0z HRRR has 6” in Allentown and 4” down to Philly. Not buying it though…I’ve seen this before where the HRRR severely underestimates mid-level warm air. The NAM is about to come out and I’m pretty confident it’ll show something entirely different.

The NAM sniffing out those warm mid level temps this late in the game scares me a bit. Seeing the RGEM hold serve for the most part is def a good sign for an all snow event

What was wrong with the euro there?

Would have to ask @The 4 Seasons or @ORH_wxman .. I barely remember what I had for dinner yesterday

24/8 here general 2” of snow cover remain

anything in the past have any resemblance to this system? Seems to be a pretty unique setup, especially when looking at the block

Looks great for most of CT!

Temp free falling here.
