  1. If we could only get this kind of training and efficiency for a snowstorm.
  2. Haha - I did say that. For a bunch of years it was the NFL equivalent of having non-losing seasons and losing in the playoffs. Got snow, but missed in the big games (storms). My positive spin was that at least we are practically guaranteed 20”+ regardless of how bad it was. At that point, it had happened maybe 1-2 times in 40 years. The funny thing is in the last 6-7 years we’ve had a decent group of 8-12” storms. The lack of those for a while was causing a lot of whining. But obviously 3 seasons in that period have been historically low overall.
  3. I remember looking real close to make sure the white area made it all the way to the Ohio line (in retrospect, it was understated)
  4. We’d be panicking that shit was sliding east
  5. Ironically, probably 5 miles south of there got another 7-8”. (Which isn’t a ton, but for this year it will be decent % of the total)
  6. I technically have this for tomorrow which is one of the more aggressively worded headlines all winter. I have to think though this is more intended for the northern half of the Butler County. Can’t see this being too great in Cranberry, but I wouldn’t mind some nice squalls.
  7. A 50” February wasn’t *that* long ago. Also, what followed was 5 or 6 above average snowfall Februarys in a row - getting well into mid 2010s. At that point one could have said they are becoming snowier than January. Two bad years doesn’t mean winter has changed. 2022 was the snowiest March since ‘93. And like I have said - this isn’t disputing the overall impact of climate change. But local sensible weather (esp pertaining to snow) needs a lot more data to conclude anything anytime soon. At this point - it’s just two bad winters.
  8. Wouldn’t be shocked to see an inch or two along the I70 corridor this morning. Healthy little batch of steady snow. That was modeled way south a few days ago
  9. He still has this as his “pinned tweet”. Kind of silly at this point. Have to hope for a strong March.
  10. Rippin here right now. Heaviest I’ve personally seen since yesterday. Great morning (although, not gonna lie, jealous of 6-7” 20 miles away)
  11. Seeing also 6+ in Plum too. Which basically means that band…cutting through the center of the entire length of Allegheny County will wind up dropping 6-8”. Even though that cuts through a pretty populated swath, not sure we have a ton of posters that got to enjoy it full on. But still a pretty remarkable event.
  12. It was kind of fringed, and the NWS is on Shafer road with is even a touch north from there.
  13. Imperial - literally 5 miles from the airport. 6.5”. If I recall, they got the lake band too. People there are probably thinking it ain’t a bad winter
  14. It’s a pretty narrow band, it just happens to be going right through the city. Places west of the city into eastern Ohio have 6-10”. Outside of the mega band, I think we are looking at more like a widespread 2-4”.
  15. The mesos did have some weenie bands, but not in that area. Was further south and east.
  16. Airport looks like it’s been catching the northern fringe of the band. 1.5” in the last two hours, with 2” total. Steubenville/Wintersville area is about 25 miles southwest and is pushing 6”. Some of those types of totals will likely translate east. Definitely a nowcast storm. Certainly looked like the sweet spot would be further south.
  17. Totals in eastern Ohio are going to be interesting. Places near Steubenville with 4” and a good bit to go. I saw about 2” downtown already but not a lot of reports from the western suburbs yet. Figure some folks there are doing well.
  18. Band in Ohio getting thicker. Hoping that can swing north a little. I got into a little heavier snow, but mostly on the outside looking in still. About a half inch so far
  19. Big fan of rates and daytime. Daytime is definitely out, but at least it looks like it won’t be in the middle of the night. I think south of the city still looks really good. I’m a little worried we northern people might not quite get the heavy stuff, but we’ll see. The 2:00 advisory update now advertising “3-5 with locally higher along route 70”
  20. Models (and now radar) have shown this northern tongue of sorts that looks to get the precip going sooner. Will be interesting to see where this sets up, as it could help with some of the totals along the northern side of this.
  21. Weenie band getting thicker. I still think the best energy is probably south of this depiction locally, but will be an interesting nowcast this evening. Westmoreland pounded on the run.p
  22. I’m probably a touch north for this, but thinking there are some sweet spots (4”+) in the south hills or Westmoreland county. Basically far enough north to catch some better ratios, but far enough south to catch higher precip amounts.
