Even the Canadian is still an area wide warning snowfall, fucking put on your big person pants people. Jesus.

That’s rich coming from you.

6z gfs was a major step toward a euro-like solution. Much closer to a phase than any earlier runs.

But was it a move towards the ICON? That’s the big question of the morning!

Jesus fucking Christ…I’ve been reading this thread since this morning and I’m still on page 185.

Felt glorious in the sun this afternoon. Tons of melting but still lots of snowcover. I’d prefer it be gone, so hopefully some sun tomorrow will continue to zap it. 

Watch the GFS be an inland bomb and the Euro a weak POS slider giving Fayetteville 4” of cold powder. The CMC…who cares?

M/D crew would certainly beg to differ. Not only are we further NW, we've gotten shafted quite often. This week was the most recent example. Hasn't been a terrible winter by any measure--Lord knows we've seen worse--, but yeah, it's been tough watching everyone north and south of us cash in on warning events.

You’re not disagreeing with his statement about the “shaft line.” He says that the “shafting” is a north/south thing and not a NW/SE thing.

Also…you might be north, but he’s way the hell west.

Edit: “shaft line” not “shady line”

Pretty surprised to see the snow cover survived the rain let's see how much can stay from the warm day 

We’ve still got lots of snow in the ground, but I honestly just want it to go away.

11/21: T - grauplets
11/22: T - SnowTV for an hour or so, followed by drizzle
12/1: T - on-and-off small snow showers for about an hour
12/24: T - some light sleet in the morning left a coating
1/3: 0.75” - squall/thundersnow
1/5-1/6: 9.0" - bumped a little based on local spotter reports
1/11: 1.0" - pretty little weekend thing
1/14: T - light snow shower late in the evening
1/16: T - very light, quick snow shower
1/19: 1.0" - missed morning rates but flipped later when rates increased (light flurries on 1/20, as well)
2/9: T
2/11-12: 8.0” - relative jack on the northern edge of the heaviest snows

Seasonal Total: 19.75"

Ended up with 8” on the dot, which jives with one of the spotter reports nearby. Looks like we jacked here, which is a nice change of pace. 

Took this pic before shoveling early this morning. Look closely enough and you might see the new dude looking out at me from the front door.
 

Is it considered snow on snow if we still had small piles of snow that fell from our metal roof after the January storm?  Lol

7.25” in Burke as of 10:50 pm.

Gotta admit that this far surpassed expectations IMBY. I thought we’d do OK, but we maxed what we got on the very northern edge of the best precip and it piled up quickly once it started coming down at a decent clip.

Headed to bed hoping we can squeak out another inch, but if we don’t I’m not going to complain one bit!

Small flakes but kinda pouring for several hours now 

Dude…same here! I said as much about 152 pages back, but the ratios probably suck here despite us getting over 1” per hour for a couple hours earlier.

5.75” in Burke as of 8:20 pm with 0.75” in the last hour.

Kinda liking that 7” goal…

5” in Burke as of 7:20 pm.

Would love to make a run at 7”, which was honestly the high end I had in mind.

1.5” in the 5:00-6:00 hour here in Burke. No idea what the liquid equivalent is, but if I were to guess, I’d say the ratios aren’t that great despite the impressive rates.

Measured a tick under 2” in Burke at 5:05 pm and have already added about 0.4” since then!

@mattie g  It wasn't me!

Roads and sidewalks caving now in Burke. Moderate stuff moving in as the sun takes a rest.

I’ve had my RadarScope set to Pittsburgh radar since going to Wisp this past weekend. I was wondering why the hell the returns were so paltry despite the reports coming in.

And now we are at light snow.  Nice quick transition.

Yup. Been head down with work this afternoon and finally looked up again. Coming down nicely now in Burke.

Dropped quickly to 32/28.

I had to stare really hard, but I saw some flurries.  34.9 and soon to drop.

Had more flakes a bit ago, but it looks like the back edge is here.

Just looked outside for the first time in about 20 minutes and I see flakes here in Burke.

36/28

MECS on euro
 

 

Red rocket storm

49 and pouring rain here in Deep Creek.

Had plenty of freezing rain earlier today, but the warm air flooded in with the precip.

Decent day yesterday though!

Latest WB EPS extended is warmer than yesterday's run...will need to be watched for any new trends.

 

What do the TT or PW or SV EPS say?
