Lol, It’s what we do on here, no one is saying any model is right at any point.

We need to look at all guidance & search for a consensus.

Outliers, whether high or low should be tossed.

I just wish the models in this day and age were more accurate 

Really not liking the temps climbing. Went to be at 3am temp was 22. Woke at 7 temp was all rdy 28 now its up to. 32. Was hoping with no sun warm it would only be 26 now

That's what all modeling was showing at this point. It consolidates as the day goes on.

I could of sworn it was more together then this. The broken mess was on its western edge. I've seen to many storms that never really came together. Hope I'm wrong 

Radar looks shifty broken up mess no real soiled mass of precip

0z GFS on Weatherbell looks very similar to 18z.

Here they both are to compare.

It is all relative.  Rgem lost 3-5 inches for much of the LSV (from the runs at 6Z)  but basically meshing with the other models now.  Still looks good I think.   Rgem was too high.  FV3 gained 3" in some areas it was too low in. 

i understand we dont have a good cold air mass and 2 the moisture field is not as robust and is moving to fast.  given the wind swings from last night through tonight models cut way back but then they back up . i guess good luck to every one 

so all the models are increasing totals again by a bit or holding serve. as I see some forecasts being lowered this is honestly a head scratcher.

I think they had 6 or 7 crews going to be from say West Virginia up through New York state and I believe further north.

Oh nice covering up a good range incase the storm does one thing or another. I remember years back they sent some one to the reported center of a blizzard. It moved like 100 miles south and you could see Jim really pissed off in the middle of light rain and temps in the 40s

Total accumulations of 4 to 7 inches. * WHERE...Portions of central Pennsylvania. * WHEN...From 8 AM to 10 PM EST Saturday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The snow will likely be heavy at times between noon and 7 pm, then diminish significantly thereafter. A change to mixed precipitation is possible by early evening south and east of interstate 81. Updated for me earlier it was 4-8 so they knocked off 1 inch from the high point not to bad honestly Ill take 5 lol. worked called me and said limited shifts for tomorrow. I go in at 8am tho instead of 10 but I get out at 4. so maybe during the heavy part of the storm

talks in here early about the hrrr model sometimes overdoes precip and or warmer temps lately so who knows. im seeing any where from 1-2 inchs from the nws calling 4-8 but could be close to 10. So I have a 9 inch spread lol better luck in vegas

It’s gonna rain a lot - no need for anyone S of MDT to shovel imo

maybe maybe not last night's early this morning signs up a warm tongue coming from MD into southern PA in latest model runs is now showing to be colder and mix or rain is south of PA/MD line. Maybe it will pan out maybe it wont 

at 29/21 went down to pick up food temp was 35 I came out 20 mins later and it was down to 29 when i got back home double checked both thermometers.  Still clear not even high lvl clouds yet. 

so question Im seeing it starts about 10-11 in my area local future radar from the news is saying it ends by 7pm? I was looking at other future radar they have it lasting till 10pm-12am some models suggest wrap around till sunday 10am but normally wrap around doesnt pan out to good in my area.  WSW goes till 10am I think kind of odd the locals showing it ends at 7pm? I know storms tend to end earlier then the alert calls for but more then 12 hours later?

The Weather Channel is setting up shop downtown.

damn nice id laugh my arse off if we get thundersnow in harrisburg is Jim around?

https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/snow-expected-to-arrive-saturday/vi-AA1mu9fF?rc=1&ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=6ce8d19c60034850fc15e319bbfa9051&ei=29 maybe this is why many locals are still calling for a mix of rain snow and a mix up past harrisburg 

Was out shopping today on my day off. Local stores are surprisingly empty for a fri afternoon thought for sure id have to wait in a line at giant and weis. not in and out hardly any people I dont know if this is case people understand you dont need 3 loafs of bread 2 gallons of milk and 64 eggs for a snow storm under 18 inchs lol. honestly the only snow storms I ever needed things cause we got snowed in was 1993 superstorm and 2011 storm juno. For juno I didnt get plowed out for a darn week.  Or could be the fact after the last 3 years people dont buy when the weather guys call for snow any more.

So tired of the same song and dance with model showing snow then up to the day before just be like no no no now a mix right away to cold rain or dry slotting and now transfer to a coastal
