  1. 3.5-4" here at Millersville. Just went over from heavy snow to sleet in an instant
  2. Crossgates has not been friendly to me! I think my low is around a 75 or 76 as well. I remember starting my round with 3 straight birdies once.... gave them all back and shot a +2 on the front. I haven't been able to get out recently because of the snow, so looking forward to spring soon. I play on the Club golf team here, I actually am the founder and president. We had a fun "Ryder Cup" type event within our club team last fall and I don't think I lost a single match haha. Probably the most fun I've ever had golfing. Playing competitively just with friends is a blast. And I didn't know you went to MU, I love this school and wouldn't trade going to any bigger meteorology school (Penn State, Rutgers, Oklahoma, etc.)
  3. Golf is my sport! I've played competitively all the way up from high school and now into college. No lessons, no teachers. Just myself and the course. I'm a 5 handicap so it's taken lots of effort to get to where I'm at. My favorite pros are actually alot of the British guys: Rose, Westwood, Fleetwood, Fitzpatrick. Idk, I've always gravitated towards them haha. Favorite American golfer is Schauffele.
  4. Embiid dropped career high 50 points last night
  5. Ukie for Monday. BL is warm, but if rates are heavy enough higher elevations could squeak out 2-4"
  6. Well he hasn't said too much, I'll have to talk to him about it and I'll even bring up your question to ask. However, I do know that it's known that towards the very end/beginning of new solar cycles, that the solar sun spots, CMEs, flares, coronal holes etc. all start closer to the poles of the sun and stronger. As the cycle progresses -> these features move towards the equator of the sun and also subsequently weaken in intensity as well. Here in Millersville, 28 degrees and just some freezing mist/drizzle that has encased my car with a sheet of ice...
  7. I'm minoring in Space Weather and Heliophysics here at Millersville. I agree that the sun is without a doubt a huge driver to even our weather at times through the Global Electric Circuit. An active sun with plenty of solar activity has a higher chance to eject SEPs towards Earth which can interact with our ionosphere, transfer down into the lower atmospheric levels through the GEC.... The sun is important lets just say that haha. Still only light pixie dust falling here, might have around 3-4"
  8. I appreciate your reports, it gives me an idea of what it's like in Fleetwood when I'm down in Millersville. Snow has all but stopped here in Millersville, in a brief lull/area of subsidence
  9. Congrats man, glad you're getting pounded! Only about 2.5-3" out here in Millersville. Moderate snow
  10. This sucks, rates just haven't been too great here all morning despite decent radar returns. Only 2.5" so far. Back to ODE work I guess...
  11. Read the key, totals are in *centimeters* because apparently that's how we measure snow now lol. I thought it was a joke too. Snowing nicely in Millersville, probably only around 2" just eyeballing
  12. School, classes, life is busy haha. Plus I had a date last night. So unfortunately no model checking during that time. Plus my crazy ex gf won't leave me alone, thinking about a restraining order.... anyway, I think a general 4-8" followed by a lull and then some sleet or ice is the forecast. Possibly lollis to 10 somewhere.
  13. 10 years since the last Ice Storm Warning from Mt Holly... unreal
  14. Most of the individual HREF short range models paint at least 0.5" of ice across Berks and the Lehigh Valley. Remember, the freezing rain accretion maps are almost always overdone. But 0.25-0.5" of ice seems likely IMO
  15. Completely agree. It's dry out there, so if rates are too little it obviously won't accrete. We were under a freezing fog advisory maybe a couple months back, and let me tell ya the roads were hella slippery even after something like that. I don't think todays storm and Tuesday are too comparable QPF wise. Tuesday will be loaded with gulf moisture.
  16. If the freezing rain comes down too heavy, however, you won't see as much accrual. Those big rain drops will require a lot more energy to freeze compared to smaller drizzle drops. Also, you can't forget about the latent heat aspect of the rain turning from liquid to ice on contact. That is essentially why its so hard to get significant icing events sometimes. Because the surface naturally warms as the rain transitions in state from liquid -> solid.... Anyway, this isn't a long duration storm. It's modeled to be like an 8-10ish hour storm max. If you can lock in the cold just enough for those NW, I don't see how places escape a moderate icing event
  17. Temps warm up considerably Tuesday afternoon after the storm passes However, by Wednesday morning we're back in the low teens
