  1. We’d always say “March averages more snow than December here”. Seems like that has regressed a bit to be about even. Yeah ‘93 may inflate things, but we’ve all had a few abnormally light Marches as well. So it tends to balance, and the average is what it is. I think even though mindsets start to shift away from winter - still historically plenty of opportunities through March.
  2. It’s starting to be a grind, especially because I’ve been sick - but I’d rather complain about that than lack of winter
  3. 1.6” out of the squall at NWS. i think they are at 2.7” for day, for those losing sleep over whether Shafer Road got 1” or 3” out of this.
  4. The height was probably no more than 10 minutes - but that was no ordinary squall. Holy shit.
  5. Absolute blizzard conditions. Heaviest snow of the winter
  6. Yeah i was out from like 5 to 7. When I went to my car, it was had a thin layer of ice under the snow that was falling. Very sneaky
  7. Squalls look pretty robust and in several waves. Models I saw had more like one thin squall line originally
  8. Pretty bad accident on Rt 79 near Zelie. Not sure if roads or visibility, but heard fatal and at least 18 cars.
  9. I still have close to 10” in my yard, so any snow on snow is good. Interesting to see if that secondary squall line develops this evening
  10. I got about a fluffy half inch on trees. The wind kicked up slightly and started blowing some snow. Because the snow is so fluffy it’s actually coming off the trees as individual flakes. Almost like a mini squall. Not sure I’ve ever seen that, but a cool effect adding to scenery.
  11. Getting this light but fluffy snow. Kind of unexpected. Because there is zero wind, it’s sticking to the trees like a wet snow. Snow globe morning.
  12. 12z Euro and 6Z GFS loving next weekend. 12z gfs south. Interesting to see what unfolds over the next (gasp) 10 days. But the signal is there.
  13. I agree. I’ll certainly deal with it for awhile because I do like snow on snow. But it seems longer than a week now.
  14. Damn -Zelie/Harmony area got to -20 to -25. That’s about 8 miles from me. I always consider the -22 in Jan ‘94 my coldest. And it as also windy during that period. Just brutal. I don’t think there are great records of rural locations during that time. Certainly not like now. But you would have to think some backyards in rural areas were way below -30.
  15. Currently -14 here. I was trying to explain to my wife that we were as close to freezing as a 78 degree day. She was not amused.
  16. That northern stream batch jumped considerably north since 0Z yesterday. Impressive totals into central and even Northern WV. The problem is it might just be the GFS’s imagination.
  17. Ok one weenie thought. A low that deep should be able to gain latitude. So if there is a depiction that far west, northward movement could….ah nevermind. But id rather need a northern jump than a western jump (assuming the GFS isn’t whacked)
  18. Weenie model - but you have had the hot hand since last week.
  19. I got that on a newly cleared sidewalk - but hard to say how much blowing snow contributed. This batch is more about some nice scenery than anything too heavy.
  20. Weenie in me says with that type of energy the ranges of possibilities are wider at this point. And I envision this retrograding bomb tracking through Philly But I agree - tying to keep it to only a quick check at this point. Seems low probability with anything major here
  21. Down to 1 degree IMBY this morning with a 14” snowpack. These are the good old days.
  22. I think weather apps (esp apple weather) are probably a bigger culprit than random online weather weenies. Those apps are “trusted sources” and are flashing huge snow totals in the extended range. Of course for many, those at least directionally verified after they did it for this past weekend. So I can see people putting more faith in it.
