  1. Yeah I’m not surprised there’s some light flakeage up there. I’m just saying radar images with ptype algorithms based on surface temps don’t prove anything.
  2. That’s just radar algorithms…not ground truth. Cranky should know that.
  3. Well it was precipitating. The airport ASOS had a brief period of reported snow between the rain obs. The temp was around 37-38 at the time. My skepticism was whether or not it was actually snow of if was just cold rain and the instrumentation was reporting snow in error. Sometimes they do that with marginal temps and light precip. Vis only got down to 8-9 miles too.
  4. My oaks took a major color turn overnight. This wind is ripping most of the leaves off the other trees now. My armstrong red maple is a deep red/burgundy right now.
  5. Not sure if it was legit, but FVE briefly reported -SN at the ASOS this morning.
  6. 38.9/30 and breezy In theory it’s probably cold enough for some CAA flakes here as well.
  7. My guess would be some kind of cambium damage running up the tree and some black mold growing in the crevice. Is the base of that tree actually two trees that merged?
  8. There was a lot of low level E flow before and during that first wave of precip. I assume you’d have to be well into Jan to overcome that? A lot of the precip yesterday would’ve been low level stuff too…maybe saved by some salt nuclei? Of course there may have been a stronger high if it was winter as well. So I guess it’s all a moot point.
  9. Change the 3-4ft to 3-4 inches of slop and knock everyone else down a category.
  10. Not as bad here, but 4.04” since 8/1 isn’t great.
  11. I think it’ll pick up a little there in the coming hours. Nothing crazy, just a soggy appeal.
  12. It’s mostly terrain enhancement from this point on…EMATT, Monads/ORH hills, E slope of Berks.
  13. 0.20” rain. Radar not looking promising. Breezy though with spotty -RADZ and some drier air working in aiding some evaporative cooling.
  14. Aside from less forcing, there’s a trend up here for some drier sfc air to work in overnight. That may be attributing to some of the sharp cutoff in S NH.
  15. Trending toward meh up here. Not surprised.
