High Wind Watch hoisted for all of MD. CTP will follow suit, which makes sense as this wind event will be the worst we've seen in years and years it appears. Hey that rhymes. 

Sterling must not have updated their maps because the only watches that I see currently issued in MD is in the western part of the state - most of MD has nothing at this time. 

Kind of a long video...frustration is setting in even for the hardcore folks who have lived in the mountains for years - some of this guy's footage in his neighborhood is beyond surreal:

This was filmed yesterday. 

There was a 20% chance of an isolated snow shower in Mammoth overnight...

...this morning they are reporting 7" of new snow in town and 9" on the hill. 

Town officially at 702" for the season.

The 3k NAM for the MS Valley through the Ohio Valley is WILD for Friday. Serious storms. Very interested to see if SPC issues its largest-ever MOD warning tomorrow. Between spinning tops and the wind shear getting pushed down - Jesus.

If timing works out Saturday in PA I’d think sees an enhanced - timing doesn’t look ideal but who knows. Just depends on the front timing. If it can pass through from 2-5 pm all bets are off. 

Next Tuesday/Wednesday probably is a repeat of Friday/Saturday. Any cold front over the next few weeks unless the jet changes is going to cause major storms. We fly Tuesday afternoon - might not happen. Time will tell!

This is you at your best - I look forward to your severe thoughts. Keep this content rolling please.

MDT having a very average day with a high of 56/57 and a low of 36.  But month wise it seems locked in at being between 1 and 2 degrees AN.  It stands at 42.9 right now with some room to drop tomorrow with a well BN day forecasted but not a whole lot.   "Normal" is 41.3. 

Think today was a good example of springtime water influence at MDT - although there were other stations in the same vicinity...surprised that most were a few degrees below the 61 here. 

Sunny and 61 at 3:15pm. Beautiful day!

Nope, didn't take it that way at all.  Was just clarifying that it wasn't graupel.  It's all good, and I must say, being called Mr. Snowman left me feeling quite titillated haha.

Has anyone checked on @Itstrainingtime?  After checking the snow cams at Mammoth this morning his heart may need monitoring!

Also, big thanks to @MAG5035 for that hail clarification yesterday, 'twas very helpful.  I had a feeling you would come through with something enlightening and you didn't disappoint.  You continue to be one of the bright spots in being a member of this board.  Don't ever think your work doesn't go unnoticed or unappreciated.  If I ever meet you in person you best believe you're being bought the finest of ales!

Happy hump-day to all!       

*whispers* national low of -35 at Peter Sinks, UT.

30" of new powder overnight. 

I'm about speechless at this point.

I remember the sirens going off in Wormleysburg. That was insane.

There are towns around our area with Tornado sirens? 

I feel really stupid - I thought that was a midwest/south thing...

History in the making right here:

Town needed 1" to eclipse the all-time record. Going to get a whole lot more than that over the next 15 hours. 

Super busy all day, wanted to do some housekeeping here:

Yesterday's high was 61, morning low this morning was 42. Received .44" of rain yesterday. Currently it's 50 with a light rain shower falling here at work.

Haha yes I'm familiar with those random summertime hail snow reports.

Hey @Itstrainingtime I'm sure you're aware of this but Mammoth said they actually missed about a foot of snow reporting back during one of their mega storm cycles.  They adjusted their totals to reflect that omission and are now up to 667" on the season and should eclipse 700 shortly.  Can't imagine how much the summit has received, 900??  Amazing. 

I'm all over it! Mammoth is about to get smoked again - 3"/hour stuff inbound tonight. Going to eclipse 700" at Main and 900" at the summit.

It also counts towards snow totals if it accumulates…

Speaking of non-snow that counts as snow, my biggest event for the 2022-23 season was in central Arkansas. I did see nearly 2" of sleet at my hotel.   

Gotta love this forecast for Mammoth for tomorrow night - snow "could" be heavy at times...but look at the expected accumulations just for tomorrow night:

The GFS is looking a little more coolish the second week of April now.  I wonder if we see any teens this week though (colder spots) ...post your Wundermaps to stop second guessing! 

My forecast lows this week are all above freezing with the exception of Wednesday morning, which is currently 31.

Yeah I heard it on the house first so went outside to check and sure enough there was some sleet pinging around with the heavy rain.  Funny enough, some people near me appear to have reported pea sized hail on mPing but what I witnessed was most certainly small ice pellets and not the more rounded milky white opaque nature of hail.  I don't know man I'm struggling with it too haha. 

I wasn't doubting you - I'm sincerely stunned, however.  

Elliott's April outlook: 

Let's talk about #April. Many forecasters are calling for below-avg. temps and even mentioning the threat of a late-season snowfall. In my opinion, this is unlikely. Why? First, the MJO may be active in phases 5-7.. all of which are "warm" phases in an ENSO-neutral April..

Next, the Pacific/North American (PNA) pattern should remain negative. A strongly -PNA indicates a deep trough, or dip in the #jetstream, across the West and a mean ridge in the East. Thus, I expect temps to be 2-4°F above normal for the month in southeastern PA.

Chalk one more snow day up. 

That is crazy though - I've had sleet with temps in the upper 40s, but 60? Wow.

Very heavy shower just erupted here with copious amounts of sleet mixed in as well.  Took me by surprise. 

You had sleet? Holy crap, it's 60.7 on my weather station.

MU just tweeted that some areas get no more than a few hundreds of an inch. Looking at radar, that's plausible.

I was wrong. It rained for 5 minutes, sun's back out now. Had less than .1"

Must be related to the coming front as Johnstown is reporting similar high winds and HGR was as well. 

As soon as the cloud deck moved in, the winds came with it. Pretty good breeze blowing now.

Wow, we have had gusts over 40 with sustained 25ish.  It has calmed down a bit the last 30 min but was blowing all morning.   A warm 62 nooner. 

So far at least, the flag in front of the office isn't moving at all. It's calm.

Exactly…good luck to the northern tier.

This is a back yard sport for many of us…

Exactly… MDT had around 16 inches last year. It certainly wasn’t a good year last season, but I needed the shovel a few times.

2021, we had lots of shoveling opportunities with MDT getting 36 inches of snow.

This year, sadly no shovel was needed for me!

Following your own words, just remember that not everyone lives in Marysville and even fewer of us live at MDT.  There was no shoveling in Maytown for the past 2 years. (I had a storm that dropped about 5" on my yard last winter, but there was 1" at most on my driveway, which melted in minutes.
