GFS, Canadian and ICON all look acceptable for Mon/Tues.
-
Still, it’s slightly skewed by the fact that 2010 happened to be split pretty evenly between two days, which is just bad luck.

It’s not going to snow this winter, but that’s affecting me less and less as spring becomes visible ahead of us.

Euro is doing what is most likely gonna happen and forming the wave on further east most likely on the arctic front. Unless this amps up from a phase I just don't see this being a threat for us. Maybe we sneak an inch or two atleast but I wouldn't expect much more. Now the models this far out are gonna change so who knows.
We did the bitter cold with bare ground thing twice last winter, why not do it again.

6z GFS wants to do the Tuesday thing now. Problem is, the Euro is now having none of it.

I'm wondering if after this next cutter we get some better snow action on the back-end with some true arctic air coming in over very warm lake waters if we can get a favorable trajectory and a little embedded shortwave to help mix things up.
Storm after is till on the Euro, and GFS seems to be at least showing the possibility of something in the same time frame too.
Late next week also seems to be a window now. GFS and CMC both have something.

1.29” of precipitation reported on my weather station so far today.
Another daily record at PIT. 1.25”. We’re slowly continuing to lose days that have never recorded an inch of precip.

Interesting. The Weather Channel has this for Monday:
Watching a potential winter storm. Variably cloudy with snow showers. High around 25F. Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow 40%. Snowfall around one inch.
Variably cloudy with snow showers. Low 14F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow 40%. 1 to 3 inches of snow expected.
I will say I find more often that not that when they include that "Watching a potential winter storm" language, it means we get to watch a winter storm go somewhere else other than Pittsburgh.
I haven’t seen that language that far out in awhile.

GFS and its ensemble want nothing to do with that storm. More Arctic influence and deeper cold.

The early next week thing looks good on the Euro.
-
Well, p-type must have been snow at onset. What a slushy mess.
-
Hate tossing weeks when there aren’t that many left, but hopefully something pans out. I’m confident that with all these storms and polar vortex pieces rolling through the US, we have a good shot at cashing in somewhere.

Which model handled this last system the best overall?
Seems the Euro was too much snow for us, and GFS was too little. Maybe the future is somewhere in between the two.
I think the GFS did much better for our area. Can’t speak for overall, for the entire area the storm affected.
-
6z GFS looked great. Keeps us cold but not bitter cold from late week on and in an active storm track with lots of opportunities to score.
Euro, not so much. After the weekend storm (which does little for us) it pumps a pretty sizable eastern ridge out ahead of that piece of polar energy. I’d think that’s a warm and wet to cold and dry scenario.
I would guess a lot of our upcoming pattern depends on where the piece of polar energy ejects, which is far from certain at this point.
-
And on a weather note, the 18z gfs was beautiful if maybe a little implausible. Lots of storm opportunities, yeah we get blasted with punishing waves of cold later in the run, and it honestly looks like it just spit out the coldest 7 day period on record for parts of the lower Midwest and some of the south.

Also I see three stars between f and k, so I’m not sure what word you were going for

Glad to hear it. Lets try to keep this thread civil and mainly obs and discussion. Use PMs or the banter thread for the other stuff. Or as mentioned by others, the ignore feature. Save explitives for things like I just got a f***k ton of snow.
We are a small group so in slow times bantering in this thread isn't a big deal, but for me coming in on the eve of a storm and seeing all the bickering / fighting was really unnecessary.
Today’s storm wasn’t the be all, end all of storms, but it reset my patience meter and hopefully did the same for others.

Official NWS obs was 1.7” so far.

Nah, I’m sick of the multiple bullies on here.
Then post a damn snow obs in here and talk about it in the banter/complaint thread.

What is your problem?
Dude give it a rest.

I’d say about 2” here. Seems most of the obs around the county are 1.5” to 3”, so not terrible given a forecast of 2-4.

Took the wind right out of my sails. 10 days of mostly cold weather and no snow in sight. It even makes it get above freezing next Thursday without even needing the help of a cutter.
