https://www.abc27.com/weather/forecast/snow-and-sleet-at-times-today-storm-exits-tonight/ even abc is claiming this?? why have the storm warning till 10 am tomorrow it was suppose to snow all day what just happened ?

https://www.wgal.com/weather/radar um whats with this saying its almost out of the area by noon today? its all ready clearing most of the western central area of PA and looks to be out of here by mid afternoon today?

I just hope I see something soon so many of you are saying you have seen flakes or seen accum and still nothing for me lol. some of you are 20 mins away in all directions its this a cruel joke on me lol.

Yeah this year has been funny with the future cast and what ends up going down. Still nothing here in my area 

one thing i noticed this year vs other years. They no longer have person verifications on if its snowing on not its all radar based. Its said its been snowing here all night since the radar showed snow. Same with other storms this year. in years past they were confirmed observations by weather sites or people reporting.

Its like 2 storms ago I was under deep blues for 4 hours and nothing then as soon as it got a few shades lighter it started snowing. That puzzled the heck out of me

updated now says 5-7 and will last through 10 am fri. Tho one thing that is worrying me forecast low low 20s still sitting at 28 the clouds came in hella fast yesterday mostly cloudy before 6 didnt allow for much drop in temps.

I just came from that direction and still nothing sadly. Btw why did we get downed to only 6 inchs vs what they were calling for earlier? I thought things were looking juiced so it should go up?

I did a lot actually. Most of the times like I said they were pretty right. I mean the blizzard of 93 and 96 both were called a week plus out. Other storms like in high school we pretty much got the snow they called for every time if they called for 6 inchs we got about that. if they said 4 inchs then change to sleet at noon. right on the dot it changed at noon. now it feels like they put to much stock in models and dont forecast or go instincts. I mean how many times have you heard a model was thrown out cause of a error or a problem with the initialization

?

Every one of your posts is filled with whining. Come on, man! It could be last winter!

Well when it comes down to it yes I complain when 12 hours out they cant get a forecast right.  Im glad it isnt last winter Im just saying when I hear the most accurate forecast from local news I just wonder what the % is like 20? lol when every one else is like 15. I dont want to complain but it feels like forecasts have got worse vs when I was a kid they felt 9 times out of 10 spot on.

I dont know after the fail of this last system on the models I just wonder if it just wont be 50 and rain all the way up to ny state.

tonight's even was a total joke for my area. even radar showed pink as in mix all we got was heavy rain forecast high was 32 got to 38 never went below 35 but yet still we have a wwa going on wtf. I mean you cant accurately forecast a even 12 hours out now? smh did any one in the lsv receive any wintry weather

hmm

The precipitation field looks way off as well as its in sc a lot less then when it was going to be in wv? Im confused as all get out I know these are just models and are used for guidance but this is way off imo

one weather station says 41 for me tuesday another one says 31 so yeah thats for me in PA so i would guess a tad warmer down for you guys.

If you look at the ice hazard maps for the entire state (not just the CWA), Carbon County gets .25 to .50" of ice while Schuylkill gets .10 to .20". I guess the ice storm will stop right at the county line, which is how it's depicted on the map...lol

 

yeah i never understood that stupid reasoning. 

well this is a bunch of bull crap. I never go below freezing tonight per hourly forecast. I get down to 33 get snow showers at 11am to 2 then rain and a high of 41????

Probably just in catch up mode. Things just started looking more wintry after days of looking like a pure rain maker. I'm sure if this is a real trend and it continues into tomorrow, the weather app forecasts will start to resemble it. 

Ah thanks but its funny cause I went frim seeing 38 on friday yesterday to 41 for friday today but that explains it lol.

in a wsw for 2 inchs of snow and a .10 of a inch of ice? is this just low balling it atm?

Funny thing is my forecasts are saying 41 for friday morning showers. So not sure if all the models are saying below freezing and snow and ice why the forecast is that off.

man nws in our area are jokes they love to downplay storms so much you see the hate they have for winter storms. I just dont know lol.

I think its kind of pathetic that we go from artic air to just below normal. The to a weeks worth of snow storms off and on to mix of ice and snow now to rain for mon and tues. with a Low in mexico instead of riding the gulf coast like it does 9 out of 10 times and goes up the east coast now its a apps runner?

so we go from artic air to just slightly below normal from snow to a ice storm then to rain. smh  all this talk about a long week of off and on winter storms and now nothing? dont get me wrong i hate ice so thats a plus. but just wow a low that is all the way in mexico that 9 times out of 10 rids along the gulf then up the coast has turned into a apps runner? 

well for my area radar doesnt even look like any thing is going to happen for me. I think they are going to end the wwa for me at least then bring it back monday maybe but now it looks like just rain?
