Question is, does the blocking show up as some seem to think it will. If it does, It doesn't look like the models are picking up on it yet, except maybe the Euro around the 10th?

There was one steady freight train one around 3:30AM. Lasted a couple of minutes. Pretty intense.

The next 7 days remain very dry:

Stein kicking up on the latest 6z gfs

26 degrees, winds been blowing hard all night, kept me half awake. 51 mph gust up here.

Blowing around a lot but snowing good. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

6° and moderate snow in Wolf. About an inch on the ground. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro using Tapatalk

Euro caved to GFS- east coast trough replaced with a ridge and blocking evaporates. Ugly ugly ugly

Currently 29 here, had a wind gust earlier in excess of 40mph.

Horrific trends overnight on models and ensembles. Blocking lost and thoughts of west coast ridging replaced with west coast trough. Going to be an interesting day to see where we go from here or if this was more than a blip

A pleasant surprise this morning. Walked out to get some more firewood and I have moderate snow with a dusting on everything. Current temp is 14 degrees.

Woke me up a couple times. Thought a jet was overhead. Hasn't blown like this in awhile.

2 inches new after the ice.

51kts Logan. We blow.

This wind….

Either the GEFS is about to score one of its biggest coups ever or it’s about to go down in an epic dumpster fire

Despite pretty high winds, the most impactful weather has shifted over to the snow bands that set up late this evening/early this morning in combo with the winds of course. Opted for a late night snow chase on a band that set up in northern Blair/NW Huntingdon a couple hours ago and it ended up being worth it. Some folks probably saw their biggest snowfall of the season to date under it. 2-4” was common on the I-99 corridor roughly between Bellwood-Tyrone, carrying over into Huntingdon County. Very impressive for a LES band being off the Laurel’s. I-99 between Tipton (Exit 45) and Tyrone (48) PA 45 in Spruce Creek, PA (NW Huntingdon) This band missed here by about 6 miles or so, there’s only about a half inch of wind blown snow here at the house.

No

Sounds like the plot to the day after tomorrow. Who knows what madness the future holds!

I don’t know what we’re gusting to right now but OMG. Reminder to self to check data for 3am.

All gone here on the coast. Today should’ve been Christmas with the low fog and rapidly receding snow. It certainly looked and felt the part!

Snowing nicely all night. We were ripping for a while.

The start of an arctic pattern if it verifies

I’ve never seen a storm as consistently modeled as January 2016. Aside from the 2 days of runs which suppressed the best snow south of Philly, the models were completely locked in on a huge snowstorm for a week and a half. I remember looking at a Euro ensemble run 10 days out with a big storm - which is wild to see on an ensemble mean that far out - and just knowing we’d have lots of long days and nights of tracking ahead. And then by day 7 every model run showed this monster storm crawling up the coast. I can’t remember any other storms that showed up day after day for so long like that.

Some parts of Allentown and Bethlehem just picked up a coating from a lake effect streamer.
