  1. I'm glad in the ensuing 16 years, we've stopped this trend of snowstorm names. But if we were to name this one, what do you think it should be? Snowpocalypse?
  2. Crazy drifts out there. Trampoline ringed by 2-4 foot drifts, drifts up to the top of my retaining wall in spots.
  3. Hopefully some moisture gets stuck in western Pennsylvania and it continues snowing longer than expected. I know a lot of times we're dealing with mix and dry slots, but a surprising amount of snow comes after the storm moves away and it gets us near the forecast anyways. Obviously not dealing with either today, but hopefully we still benefit from that scenario.
  4. Wow, 2" per hour for another 3 hours would take us WAY over a foot already.
  5. 9 1/8" so far (on my table). Could be an undercount due to blowing and drifting.
  6. Update here. Haven't measured but looks like at least 9 inches so far. Maybe 10-12?
  7. Any concern about these very heavy returns? What does radar correlation coefficient show?
  8. "Snow increasing rapidly" with the amount of snow fallen over the last hour (1"+ only) and the amount now on the ground. PIT's official snow measurements are taken at the NWS office, so I've never seen that remark added.
  9. And at Canton/Akron Airport: METAR KCAK 251251Z 08013KT 1/2SM R23/4000V4500FT SN FZFG VV009 M12/M14 A3003 RMK AO2 SLP194 SNINCR 1/4 P0005 T11221144 $
  10. Here's one from the latest METAR at YNG: METAR KYNG 251251Z 09011KT 1/2SM SN FZFG VV010 M12/M14 A3008 RMK AO2 PRESFR SLP212 SNINCR 1/3 P0006 T11221144 RVRNO $
  11. Sucks that they don't take snowfall obs at the airport so we can't get the coveted "SNINCR 1/X" remarks in the METAR.
  12. Yeah, I don’t know where these 3” measurements are coming from. Clearly *at least* a half foot out there already.
  13. Looks like we got way more snow than expected last night.
  14. Much needed with the long snow drought. I found this out PSU's Weather World interesting: You can really see how rough it's been around State College as well lately:
  15. Doesn't look like too much of a warm nose. Less south of I-70 still, but no particular warm push into our region. I don't think there would be too many complaints from this outcome, ranging from 10" at Morgantown to 20"+ in the northeast, with a general 12-18" over the core metro area.
  16. Looks good. I would probably bring the up to 18" zone further north though.
