  1. We are now back to a mix some sleet frz rain a little snow. this makes me think I know why we end up having sleep frz rain cause the air it falls through is above freezing then goes back below freezing. but how does it end up snowing sleeting and frz rain all a the same time? I never heard a legit explanation or any for the matter on this. Normally they just say when its all snow its or all sleet or all frz rain and show the graphic of the freezing column.
  2. I was talking about radar. looks like on radar the ice moved in at 5 or so. if you go back and look at the radar our eastern side was dry slotted. In this radar the first few frames you see how bad the eastern half looked. I dunno where I can find a radar link going back longer tho. https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/northeast-region/weather-radar?play=1
  3. yeah only reason we didnt stay snow longer was damn dry slot. im not even turning on my local news to hear this met pump himself up saying I told you so about low snow numbers. He didnt even forecast for the dry slot. this one was different tho instead of the south west dry slot getting me that filled in at the same time to eastern side of precip for what ever reason decided to just dry up and say nah im out,
  4. morning all looks like I was right when i posted last night about the dry slot ****ing us lol. every time a storm liek this dry slots us by the time the precip starts again its ice but looks like we skipped sleet and wet to frz rain. the ice started way earlier to. originally my snow was forecasted to stick around till 12-1
  5. big damn surprise over eastern PA includding Harrisburg snow shut off look at radar yep it dried up. the damn weatherman was right again on us only getting 2-3 inchs over night. just cause of dry slotting lol im going to bed.
  6. true its back building over ohio and points south west. but every time we are in this set up if we get dry slotted its game over for the snow. it either goes over to ice or rain depending on the temps and im still at 32. i was hoping some heavy precip would cool us off more then 1 degree.
  7. if you guys look to our south west and that dry slot in wv parts of md. if when that hits us and stops snowing the temps will bump up by the time we get precip back it will be sleet frz rain. ive seen it happen to many times. to keep the snow the longest we cant not get dry slotted.
  8. i nice band on radar over harrisburg nice deep blue set up. can confirm mod/heavy snow
  9. hmm radar expands then goes dry in my area for the last 4 hours. looks like this storm will be late getting started in my area. I should say phase 2 is late getting started.
  10. still find it odd that the nam gives me so little when the nws upped the totals for me to 3-6 more likely higher then the lower amounts. vs just 2 days ago where this was said to be mostly rain but all the mets on tuesday.
  11. lol is this in total for both phases of the storm? cause i all ready have slightly over 2 inchs. its forecast to snow from about 430pm till 12pm 1pm tomorrow before change over. thats almost 24 hours. some snow is said to be mod to heavy bands. I doubt we only get 2.2 inchs unless the mother of all dry slots hit us. oh damn i did it we gonna get dry slotted. btw im talking about the new nam
  12. havent had a real lul here we will go 30 mins without snow then a snow shower or light snow for a hour hits no real accumulation. a tick above freezing at 33 the forecast tho was for 36 gonna bust low esp when the snow moves in temps will drop a few im thinking.
  13. are the temps going to rise tonight at all? or is the warm push only for tomorrow?
  14. not sure where my last post went but here goes. 2 inchs over night into this morning looks like the radar is breaking up sadly. my niece was on a 2 hour delay then school was called off most likely wont go tomorrow either with the way the forecast is. she all rdy has off friday for in service and monday for a holiday. shes gonna have a nice extended break off this week.
  15. my niece was just called off school after a 2 hour delay. most likely wont go tomorrow either. she all rdy has a in service this fri and off next monday for the holiday. so far about 2 inchs
  16. from looking at the future radars and maps looks like from what i see unless it changes most falls as frozen maybe 1 1/2 hours as rain to 2 1/2 hours give or take. but like i always say models are normally meh. it comes down to real time forecasting at this time.
  17. oh on top of every thing else radar is looking more juicy atm then i think modeled?
  18. I honestly think some of these models/maps with the change over earlier runs from early sun and last night are gonna bust bad. I think the change over to snow takes a bit longer and we stay sleet frz instead of going to all rain. i still think we will see a hour or 2 of just rain. but the way some things are setting up even tho we have a cutter to the west looks like a colder solution will be the way things go.
  19. hah i see what you did couldnt do any thing really Tho it was fun sledding but if you fell off down the hill you got road rash.
  20. well the way the radar looks atm its going to be hard only to get 1-2 inchs of snow over night best time to fall. future radar I saw doesnt really break it up at 6-7am like every one is saying. its about 11am but that was a few hours ago I saw the future radar could have changed. but i could see a outside chance this turns into one long duration event. no real breaks. id give it a %5 chance at that tho.
  21. Yeah its nice when you dont have to go any where either. or jobs who force you to go into making you feel as if call off they will find a reason to fire you.
  22. yeah the whole advisory or watch per county is stupid. a storm system doesnt know where the county line is. Ive seen times when one town city in a county got 10 inchs and another one got 2.
  23. thanks for the welcome as i said in the other forum to me all my life PA was the Mid Atlantic Not sure when it changed lol. but yeah the radar look way more juiced then it was called for and temps being below forecast could be a good front end thump.
  24. I guess a lot changed in the last 20 years since I was in school. in 93 I was off for 2 weeks from the blizzard and cold. then a few other days here and there from other snows. we didnt get out of school till almost july. If memory servers went to school till like the june 20th or some where around that time.
