Blizzard of 93

Agreed, there is a decent amount of moisture available if the 2 streams can play together nicely or at least not fight each other off.

There would still be a little more to go if the run went past 60 hours.

The 3k NAM is slightly more interesting for the Saturday am light event.

@Itstrainingtime It looks like @psuhoffman agrees with your assessment from yesterday, Lol!

Someone in another thread earlier mentioned that these light nickel & dime events can help to make a difference in the seasonal snow total. These 1.2 & .3 & .8 type of events can add up if you get several of them in a season. Last season, MDT had 5 moderate events that added up to 18 inches. What was missing were the nickel & dime events that could have allowed the seasonal total to be more respectable. My point is that I’m ok with the nickels & dimes as long as we get some meaningful storms along the way.

Back to the Saturday light event, here’s the 18z Euro.

I understand the frustration, but our prime snow climo is mid January to mid February.

More good news from the Mid Atlantic thread. This afternoon @Bob Chill & @psuhoffman were commenting that the upcoming advertised pattern has similarities to the good Winters of 2014 & 2015.

@mitchnick in the main thread commented in the last couple of hours that the latest Euro Weeklies lock in the gold through late January. The warm up in early February also looks muted according to the Weeklies.

We just missed a 6 to 10 inch snowstorm by less than 100 miles to the SOUTH of southern PA… But yes, it’s obviously over… What a joke

Super obvious on January 7th, Lol! We still have 3 months to score snow. The cold is entrenched, it’s just a matter of time until we get good snow.

The Friday night in Saturday storm looks like a light event at this point for us. Here are the 6z GFS & Euro.

Our prime climo for snow is mid January to mid February. Long way to go…

Lol, it’s January 7th for goodness sake!

I think some of them were hoping that those few massive HECS runs from a few days ago would come to fruition. Now that it’s likely at best to be a possible light to moderate event, some have lost interest in the neighboring sub forums. If they temper expectations, this Friday night into Saturday could reasonably end up producing a solid Advisory event, even possibly for us in the LSV.

I thought of you when I needed to retrieve my recycling bin this evening when the wind made it wander down the block.

We have also seen these type of systems go either way over the years. The low could slide further east & miss us. But, it could also juice up just a bit & deliver a 3 to 6 or so type of event with a decent track.

I would mind to keep stacking light to moderate events as we wait for a flush hit of hopefully at some point this month.

The Saturday system doesn’t look to have the upside that a few random model runs showed. The 6z Euro & GFS both have an Advisory level, event 2 to 4 inch type of event for many of us on Saturday.

Good news, MDT revised the snow amount yesterday to 1.9 inches of snow with .15 of precip. That brings the seasonal snow total to 4.0, which is just 2.6 below normal through yesterday.

Only ended up with 2.1 of snow in Marysville. Interesting & Frustrating event, but my yard is snow covered & it snowed at least lightly for a good chunk of the day.

Only if I can maintain my career post count, Lol!

You might need a spot light… Somehow it’s snowing here & at MDT right now…

@CASH_COOP It might be time for another call to your friends at CTP. I’m not sure how they measured .9 of snow on .14 of precip at MDT. Ratios had to been at least 10-1 today? Maybe another overnight revision will be coming with the final numbers…

There’s still more heading toward Harrisburg.
