  1. Yes, there is a long way to go, especially with the late week system. I agree with your point that I would rather be looking for a north trend with 5 days to go in a set up like this. As for the early week storm, we will need to watch the short range model trends over the next couple of days. I think many of us will see 3 to 6 inches of snow by the time this first event ends by Tuesday night. I also hope for a little mix at the end to put a nice glaze or crust on top of the snow!
  2. The ensembles still favor all of CTP to get 3 to 4 inches of snow with the early week event. From here out out, the short range models should be best to narrow the goalposts further with amounts, precip mixing, etc.
  3. A little sleet & freezing rain on top helps the snow to stay around longer!
  4. The 2 potential events this week on the 6z GFS have combined snow total maps that are too good to not post! Here are the 10-1 ratio & Kuchera ratio snow maps.
  5. The 6z GFS also has the Thursday coastal storm! It shows the look the CTP snow lovers dream of seeing on a map. Strong High pressure to the north and a strengthening low over the DelMarVa.
  6. I was getting some sleep in anticipation of the busy weather week ahead. This map was incredible to see when I just woke up! Wow!
  7. I think that the areas that mix or change over will still be able to squeeze out an event total of 3 inches of snow on the front & back ends of the event.
  8. It will be interesting to see how the potential later in the week second event tracks. If the storm develops closer to the coast, then we could be looking at back to back snow events.
  9. I don’t think anyone in CTP is getting 10 inches of snow out of this. I think it will end up as a general 3 to 6 inch CTP wide event.
  10. The 10 inch line is also less than 30 miles to your north... this could go either way depending on how the final details lock in.
  11. I would be thrilled with half of these amounts for the greater Harrisburg area!
  12. The 0z NAM would still tack on a little more snow because the event is still going on at the end of the run.
  13. The southern edge is south of the MD line...even southern York and Lancaster get a few inches this run according to the long range NAM.
  14. Here is the snow map for the end of the 18z NAM run that shows the beginning of the event.
  15. I like the look of the front end snow thump on the 18z NAM at the end of the run. Yes, long range NAM, but it should help over the next 24 to 48 hours to see the thermals for the snow & mix zones. I think many in our region have a good chance for 3 to 6 inches of snow, more for those that stay mostly snow & less for the areas that mix.
  16. CTP already is ramping up their discussion on this early week event and said this in their Hazardous Weather Outlook this morning. “Steady snow will likely spread northeast across the region Monday afternoon and continue into Tuesday as low pressure moves northeast up the Ohio River Valley.”
  17. Things are still looking good on the latest EPS & GEFS for the early week storm chance for most of CTP. The short range models will soon be in range to help us determine the final story on this event.
  18. Yes, that is a good thing! I am just fired up about the opportunities next week. We are very much in the game, but anything is still possible for the better or worse. I think we have a good chance, but we will know more in the next few days. This place should be very busy this week!
  19. Just having some fun everyone! Can we please just get excited that it might snow next week?!?! The posts tonight are a real downer despite the current pattern and some recent model runs.
  20. Remember when we had to walk backwards to school in 2 feet of snow every week in the winter when we were kids...
  21. Here we go.... MDT was above normal snow the majority of years over the last decade. We had one bad year last year.
  22. Yes, but it’s not like one random 18z run has shown this event... There is a building consensus. Nothing is guaranteed until we are shoveling!
  23. I’m just waiting for the Advisory to be posted for Monday and for you to post “ I’ll bet MDT won’t get 1 inch of snow”! I really am looking forward to that post!
  24. Just last year there was no snow. Besides last year, we had a great decade of snow. Above normal snow most years.
