  1. And then what happens later in Christmas week? Any shot at a white Christmas in Chester County?
  2. That crucial tenth of an inch of snowfall recorded at PIT today assures us of double digits for the month of December for the first time since 2020.
  3. Lastly, getting a nice little streamer right now and enhancing the deep winter feel. This is perfect.
  4. There were some garbage years in the 90s and we still have 96-97, 97-98, 98-99 and 99-00 to replace, none of which were good and only one was even close to the seasonal normals. So yes, we could still get some of it back.
  5. Anyway, from the standpoint of not fretting about whether or not our annual snowfall is declining and just enjoying what we have, yesterday’s most recent NWS forecast just before the snow started was pretty much spot on with where totals ended up. It’s rare that totals get boosted before the event and then we hit them almost exactly.
  6. The thing I’ll add here, however, is that the new averages will replace the following: 1992-93 (72.1”) with 2022-23 (17.6”) 1993-94 (76.8”) with 2023-24 (16.3”) 1995-96 (74.5”) with this winter (TBD) So that’s 4” off the seasonal normal right there, unless some of the other corresponding winters can outdo their ‘90s counterparts (2021-22 and 2024-25 did by about 10” each, so add back a fraction of an inch).
  7. With the 5.0” recorded yesterday, that was the 1372nd day in a row with 5” or less, currently in 2nd place and just 143 days behind the record of 1515 days from 2014-2018.
  8. Can’t complain about this event. Probably 5-6” imby.
  9. If that final NWS obs comes in at 3.9”, it’s moot what anyone got in their backyard, and the streak will continue.
  10. NWS has nudged totals up in Allegheny county with the latest update and added the “heavy at times” wording. Maybe laying the groundwork for a warning?
  11. I’d be embarrassed to have my head as far up my ass as you do.
  12. Let’s place a friendly bet that the high temp at KMQS (not your improperly sited wx station) is at least 50 on 12/25. If I’m wrong, I won’t interact with your posts again. If I’m right, you’ll accept that AGW is real.
  13. In what world do you think Christmas will be near normal temps? Literally everything out there shows ridging in that timeframe.
  14. A reminder: even though the mood seems to be we’re failing to cash in from this “great pattern” before it ends next week, all we need is 3.6” tomorrow to be above normal snowfall for December, an amount that seems very possible.
  15. Yep this thing never had a chance. Hope we cash in with a nice little event this weekend because after that, oof.
  16. Mid 30s sfc temps should preclude much if any accumulation regardless of p-type.
  17. You should come back to the place that shall not be named. We miss you.
  18. Heard on the radio that we could set a daily record low tonight. Granted the record (12) is easily the softest December record on the books, as the 5th is the only day that has never reached single digits.
  19. No one, including myself is complaining about a solid advisory level event on the second day of meteorological winter to kick off the season. We’ll still have our chances this season to break the streak, hopefully.
  20. Someone who doesn’t get it. Enjoy the new website and the 0.000005 page views per day.
  21. So 6/106 (5.7%) from 1893-1998 and 5/26 (19.2%) from 1999-2024. Interesting.
