I guess we just live under high pressure forever now. Have had less than 0.5” in the last 2 months (8/21-10/21) locally. On the bright side, blowing the leaves works like a charm. As far winter prospects go, is the cold pooling on the correct side of the globe for us this year? Source regions torching? Bueller? I think I remember seeing an SST map recently that looked ‘better’ than the last 2 years or so from Chesapeake Bay northward.

Once again approaching rain went *poof* and dissipated around me but on the bright side the AC finally kicked off for the first time in over a week last night.

Got dry-slotted/fizzled precip-wise today but cashed in on the mammatus and glowfest. Consolation I guess, but not if you’re a plant.

https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=PHI&issuedby=PHI&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off Mt. Holly’s AFD, you love to see it. Starting Friday beautifully with afternoon storms likely, followed by a perfect summer weekend, unless you're cloudy cool mcbirds. Early June may win most enjoyable weather award. Just hope the storms pan out.

Padding some stats with a moderate burst of nickel-sized parachutes the last 15 minutes or so.

Yeah, basically across the river from you and measured 3" of mashed potatoes on the driveway not too long ago. Agree it's let up but hoping we get some stat padding on the way out. Glad I dug out the snowblower but now have to change the oil since it's been a while.

First flakes started mixing in around 6 here and everything was coated, street and asphalt driveway included, once it was all snow by 6:30. Moderate to heavy snow currently, and eyeballing 2" on patio table and chairs.

Rain and sleet mix at the moment, with some sort of icy accumulation/accretion on the cars. Eagerly awaiting a change to snow.

January 19, 2024 Powder Snow Event
Physicsteve replied to Ralph Wiggum's topic in Philadelphia Region
Same. I don't know if Im just content bc snow’s falling or bc in self defense I had severely tempered expectations after losing the bullseye to the southern shift in the last 24 hours. Either way, I take. -
January 19, 2024 Powder Snow Event
Physicsteve replied to Ralph Wiggum's topic in Philadelphia Region
Light snow since 6am eyeballing 1.5 maaaaybe 2” near Washington Crossing. Mod to heavy to maaaaybe ripping for the last 10 minutes or so. As I write intensity hasn’t slowed but flake size has. -
Spotty mulch topper so far just NW of trenton. Currently pixie dust so r/s line seems pretty good. Wish it were further away!

E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2023-2024 OBS/Discussion
Physicsteve replied to The Iceman's topic in Philadelphia Region
Adopted a rescue yesterday who’s not house broken so this afternoon and evening should be fun going outside every hour or so. Hoping for enough remaining precip and dynamics to wake up to some snow falling during the morning attempt(s). Think some slush otg is all I can expect here but rooting for the W/NW crew to cash in on some measurable depth. Go Birds! -

Not sure what the compressed file will look like but a wall of rain for about 75 minutes, with a 10 minute “lull” throw in there

Monsoon-like rains and frequent ctg boomers for the past half hour or more in titusville, near Washington crossing. Impressive stuff

E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2022-2023 OBS Thread
Physicsteve replied to Ralph Wiggum's topic in Philadelphia Region
Noticed many shrubs and dogwoods budding at our new digs in Titusville (near Washington Crossing) yesterday, this morning daughter and I awoke with allergies, and there are no less than 9 robins having breakfast in the backyard. Obs: spring -
Agreed. Not that it's the same up top, but for now seems like best case end result will be a lesser version of 1/28-29 to these novice eyes. Again lots of moving parts and interactions that won't start to be well-modeled until tomorrow imo. Who do we have to speak to in order to get some blocking?! Is this still from our winter-for-Super Bowl sacrifices from '17-18? (Worth it)
-
Any obs from the Poconos area? Supposed to be up near Gouldsboro tomorrow morning and wondering how the conditions and infrastructure are faring? Are conditions better, same, or worse than progged? Thanks and sorry for the me-centric post

January 28-29, 2022 Miller abcdefu Storm Threat
Physicsteve replied to WxUSAF's topic in Mid Atlantic
I'm a novice at best so there's the caveat, but based on my understanding of psu's analysis last night looks like the pieces are playing together relatively nicely and piece 'A' has a North-South orientation rather than NW-SE that gfs wide-right was showing. I liked how that example still had a N-S component and wasn't all 'diagonal', which is hopefully closer to reality. -
My parents got married the next day and had to use my dad’s brother and wife’s rings because theirs were stuck at the jewelers (don’t know why they cut that so close). The way they tell it it started as snow but was supposed to flip to rain overnight but never did. I keep that hope alive whenever in a marginal temp situation.
