Central PA Winter 25/26 Discussion and Obs

I was going to say a bit more of a hybrid. Certainly not a traditional Miller B in the way that we think of it around these parts but you may be right technically. I'm not entirely clear on the exact criteria for categorizing such things. -

FWIW, the FV3 at range also spits out a preferred coastal track. -

NAM a MUCH better result for the forum. Great start to 12z. -

Low of 34 with .71” of rain and one hell of a swampy backyard. I’m off today so I plan on being pretty dialed in for the 12z runs. The kids may have something to say about that but that’s the plan ha. -

Post of the year right here. Shut it all down. Amazing work pal. -

Yes I saw that. All I know is, like you, I got zero at my house in Farmdale and was stunned by what transpired. -

Okay, yes that's the timeframe I was thinking of too. I was thinking that event was more isolated than what you described but I guess I am thinking of the area that got a foot, which I believe was a narrow swath right over the heart of Manheim Township, which is where Horst resides. Yeah, I would love to find that article again. The LNP search engine is doing me no favors ha. -

Are you referring to that overnight event that dumped like a foot in primarily the Lititiz/Manheim Township area? That was crazy but I thought it was considered more of an unexplainable random convective event similar to a stray pop-up thunderstorm. I thought they were having trouble determining the reasoning for the event, almost freakish in nature. I didn't think it was associated with a norlun but I could be mistaken. Perhaps we are talking about different events? There used to be a really good LNP article talking about that exact event but I can't find it despite searching their website to the best of my ability. Do you recall the date or even the year of the one you're talking about? I do recall that photo of Horst with his foot of snow haha. -

Virtually no support for the ultra-tucked solution we saw on the 12z GFS. -

I still thought there were some notable improvements on the Euro, albeit slight. I agree that an advisory type event is most likely at this point, perhaps low-end warning. -

Probably true but in her mind the next man to come along is always Mr. Perfect. -

GFS will not relent. Throws out monster and ticks west. -

Low of 33 and foggy but with no rain yet. The overnight runs were a mixed bag but more bad than good. My fear, and most likely outcome at this point, is that we are too far west to cash in on the best of the coastal and too far east for the best of the upper level trough action. Stuck somewhere in the middle with a showery couple, to perhaps a few, inches. Next 36 hours critical for any hope with the coastal. 12z looms.
