ChasingFlakes

Also this branch fell down at the bottom if my street. Pretty good size!

Nope, but now I hope they do send me up. Seeing how much they got! Bear Creek is nice and soft today, always nice to pop up here when you dont have time for a full day anywhere else. They reported 8", looks about right accounting for a lot of compaction.

What a difference a day makes.

Interesting, it seems that after 10:30pm I stopped accumulating that much but you kept getting the goods! Congrats!

What a beautiful day! Just under or at 5.0" here in phoenixville.

Well I fell asleep after measuring 4.4" but theres at least another half inch since then, but it's hard to tell because of compaction. I'd say I was very close to 5.0".

Not getting much snow growth here, 4.4". I might not hit 5".

Sleet only lasted briefly. 0.5 in the last hour, 4.2" so far and snowing moderately, seems to be accumulating well.

Cleared snow board after 6 hours with 3.7" just as the skeet started. It may have compacted a bit before I measured it, but it was only sleeting for a few mins beforehand. I'm getting fat flakes, small flakes, and sleet.

3.7" here as of 9:45. Just started mixing with sleet. Hoping the heavy precip can outweigh the warm air.

2.0" still snowing hard, good snow growth despite the temp at 32F.

1.3 inches in phoenixville as of 6:30 pm. Roads caved

Might go in the am since I can get discounted tix.

I'd image the ground is pretty warm as well, it was 40F after all.

0.6 inches in Phoenixville. Most of that in the past hour. Snow started accumulated just at or before 4 PM.

Fat flakes here now, viz way down. Probably a quarter mile. Feeling good about exceeding the 4 inches I predicted last night.

35F/DP 33/RH 93% snowing moderately, sticking to grass and the snow board. 7:30-11:30pm possible inch/hour rates.

Quite elevation dependent along the rain snow line. Top of my hill at 650ft is snowing moderately with no sleet or rain mixed in. Bottom of the hill at 150 ft is mostly rain with some flakes mixing in. Edit: this has happened on more than one occasion this season due to all the marginal events we've had.

41F and snowing in Phoenixville. Very small and light flakes. Edit: now kind of rain. Almost indiscernable at the moment, I did have to drive into town and I reported the snow before I left. So it could still be snow at my house at higher elevation.

12 NAM 3k total snowfall thru 24 hrs. 12z NAM 3k ferrier corrected total snowfall thru 24hrs. The ferrier clownmap is indicating piss poor snowgrowth south of 276. Hoping it's just a poor algorithm all together and that the top image is closer to reality.

Nothing like a snowstorm that is forecast to never goes below 33 degrees!! Will be a nail biter for the first few hours of precip until we all start switching.

I'll be up in vt the 9th through 13th. I like to think I bring some luck since I've already done well this year with 38 inches at smuggs 1/8-11th and 15-19 at mount snow/magic 1/19-20. Plus I did real well with trips during last March's snows. Models look promising if we can keep it from cutting over the great lakes like every other storm this year. Tomorrow will be interesting too. Supposed to leave from southeast PA to Connecticut at 3am on Monday for work. NWS currently has me at 6-8", although I wouldn't be surprised to see lower than that. We're really relying on fronto to cool the column and keep us from mixing/help increase ratios down here.

Didnt even get to shovel on Friday, the sun melted and dried half my driveway, through the clouds, before I got home at 3pm. Only about 10ft that never gets direct sunlight, and my walkway had snow. My snowpile is sad too, it had some staying power from all that sleet in late Feb too. I bet yours is still doing well. Post a picture Monday morning! No way you shoveled that whole thing by hand!?

Not a huge fan of those maps, its saying I'll have 4inches on the ground at 12z tomorrow when I only have about 2 inches on the ground right now, tops. But I'll take the possibility of 8" putting me in the 12-16 zone on that map. Weather underground's proprietary guidance upped totals to 6". They're normally pretty conservative until its surefire, so that's a good sign. I've noticed their forecasts seem to align the most with the euro. I'm still going with my initial call, I think at this point I would be surprised to see much less than 4 inches but I dont want to set my hopes on much more. As others have said, this seems to be one of those storms that has decent boom or bust potential for our area.

Here's some half-baked meteorology. I've struggled to get much over 4 inches from any storm this winter, so I'll say 4" for me, which guidance seems to agree with. Edit: I won't be surprised to see more than this, and I sure won't be suprised to see less. I just think this is a safe bet for northeast chesco. A lot of guidance does have us on par with the NWS watch for 6-8. However, we've seen that a few times this year, only to be let down in the >24 hour time period.
