  1. No, a little park called Ironville on top of a small plateau near where Prospect and Fairview Roads meet. Sam Lewis is a good bit higher, no? Like 900’? My parents live down in Red Lion. York definitely has some sneaky areas of elevation.
  2. Have my son at a local park that sits at 700’ elevation and the shaded areas still have a solid 3” pack. Problem is there aren’t many shaded areas ha.
  3. 21 for a low. A quarter of the backyard still has solid snowpack.
  4. There is only one right answer here: @Itstrainingtime To be the man, you gotta beat the man.
  5. Low of 20 here, which exactly matches my NWS forecast.
  6. A full one third of my yard still has solid snowpack. The 1/3 that gets the most shade of course. In fact, the kids were just playing in it and making snowballs and everything. Color me impressed it held. Curious to see how low we go tonight.
  7. Low of 20 here. A couple cool days to get through before our warmup begins.
  8. Squall has arrived here as well! Temp also 29.
  9. Back home in West Hempfield and 3.1” is going in the books. And a light midday snow has broken out here to boot!
  10. It appears I underestimated here in Morgantown. Just did some measurements and 3.5” seems like the number. Not shabby. On way back to Lancaster soon.
  11. Yeah it seems no matter the total, roads never caved anywhere. We are getting one last band rolling through here in Morgantown. Decent rates!
  12. Looks like maybe 2” here in Morgantown. Still lightly snowing. Big disappointment as that heavy band on the radar stayed just north of us last night. Thought we would have a more uniform type event.
  13. Flakes have broken out here in the tri-lanc/berks/chester county line!
  14. Alright boys, I’ll be reporting from my sister in law’s house in Morgantown up near the Lanc/Berks/Chester line at 600’ elevation. They have a damn good snowpack still up this way. Let’s get it!
  15. Ah yes. I even read that post ha. #MorningBrain
  16. I know this is not priority at all at the moment haha but I will ask again, did anyone receive measurable precip during the last 24 hours?
  17. Low of 32 here with a nasty gust front overnight that woke me from my slumber. Looks like LNS had a wind gust of 46mph. Love seeing the models ramp up a bit as we approach game time. This seems like a pretty straight forward event with not a lot of twists to it. We should all wake up to a beautiful scene on Saturday. National high of 84 at Miles City, FL and low of -16 at Cut Bank, MT (I like that name). I'm debating whether to put .01" in the books from yesterday. My auto gauge measured .02" but almost certain that was just a bit of residual snow melt. The manual gauge is frozen but looks to maaaaybe have .01" in it if I squint. Did anyone else get anything measurable yesterday or through the overnight?
  18. Low of 20 here should help firm up the snowpack a bit. I'm thinking shaded areas can last until Friday night's snow, which by the way, I'm loving the trends on. Snow on snow baby. Let's do it.
  19. You have no idea how excited I was reading that. Dead serious. I have big problems
  20. Low of only 31 here. Should drop much lower tonight. Glad to see the trends are good for a nice little event to kick off the weekend.
  21. Oh wow. Being right there low along the river certainly doesn’t help — call it the MDT conundrum. My yard still looks pretty good. I just got done shoveling the driveway (WNW facing) and there was about 1-2 inches of heavy wet stuff left on it. I would have let it go for tomorrow’s sun to finish off but have to leave early in the morning and didn’t want to start the day with a face plant ha.
  22. Just melted down the gauge and total liquid for the event is 1.21", of which the first .5" fell as plain rain. That leaves .71" for my 5.5" of snowfall, which equates to an SLR of 7.75. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Also, I wanted to mention that I thought the HRRR was an absolute stud with this storm from the time it came within range. It handled the track and evolution pretty darn well, along with the NAM. It also absolutely nailed the rain to snow changeover time, as well as the snow-ending time, and was pretty darn good with totals too. All in all, it just offered up a really good depiction of how the storm played out. Just one man's opinion.
  23. Ukie not yet ready to play ball for Saturday but seems like it may be close.....ish. Hard to tell from my limited view of the maps.
