Burghblizz

Thumping nicely…the usual colder surfaces are slushy/white. A few degrees colder this would be an easy couple inches.

This setup is 24” in February.

Poppin like crazy. Funnels spotted near Mcmurray, West Newton, and Penn Hills

Here yinz go on a revised map. No clue what they were doing the first time, outside of possibly using radar estimates

This band north of the city is thumpin. Training a bit too. After this, ready for some warmth.

Mod snow right now. Mulch, grass, roofs, cars all have caved. Still really slushy though. Could use a couple degree temp drop.

Snow/sleet mix now in Cranberry, after mostly rain this morning. (Edit: big fatties flying now)

It’s going to be interesting for the northern suburbs, and especially into Butler/Beaver/Armstrong. Don’t think anyone actually gets the 3-6” NAM/GFS/Euro are saying, but wouldn’t be surprised to see some heavy falling snow, with grassy areas white.

With all the chilly (and windy) weather, would be nice to cash in with some accumulating snow early next week. Otherwise, let’s keep it 60 and above.

Winter Weather Advisory tommorow morning. Pushing 70 tomorrow afternoon.

I grew up in Fayette county. We flipped back to snow and wound up close to a foot total. I think there was actually more warm air being pulled in to the north. But yes, what could have been. Went to bed with 6” on the ground, and woke up to a slushy mess and a flood watch. But got a bunch more after we changed back, so overall I have a good memory of it.

This thread has been around for 8 years. Almost 30% of the posts in it were in the last 2 months. Despite all that, we made it to normal snowfall (44”) God help yinz if we ever have an 18” winter.

Another nice band dropping in. In terms of fallen snow, I’m about 5” since Saturday. Nice payback for some of that cold rain.

For as bad as most of February was - cold but somehow mostly rainy - March has been awesome. Not great if you want extended snow cover, but March never is. But gotta love having plenty of mild days to get outside, mixed with days with heavy snow.

Southeast Beaver, Southwest Butler, and extreme Northern AGC could probably use a headline. Still rippin’

Band is dumping again this morning. Easily got 3” the last 2 days (with of course complete melting in between)

I had about 1.5”, that got vaporized after it stopped. Nice little early morning treat though.

Nice - yeah I saw that on radar - just scooting south or me. Edit: catching some of it now. Just snowed 1” in 20 minutes

Looks like we will have the quantity of flakes to get that half inch - just depends on timing and rates. (And temps)

It’s the second thing I thought of - lol (right after thinking through how light winter mornings and evenings would be)

Yeah, it set a nice base for a clipper and some other smaller snowfalls. You’d never know it from our threads, but January was the 3rd snowiest of the last 25 years. This was a decent winter despite the dry spells and the torrential rain at times. Still will crack 40” overall, and had 2 8”+ events. And we’ve had 4 such storms in the last 4 years, which is a lot better pace than the previous 10 years. Next year we reel in the real big one.

They made a map from reports, but those weren’t all final totals. I said that to you before as well. If you cross reference the PIS, it had the times. You can still be disappointed about what you personally got, but recognize it wasn’t like that everywhere. Now, 3.12 was no doubt my favorite storm of the year. Only thing that sucked was a lot fell overnight. But it was more enjoyable than waiting for a dry lot to fill in. MLK was still more impactful for my neighborhood due to the time of the year. I didn’t love it because it was almost like two separate 4+” storms. But it all counts. So Both were 9-ish inches for me, but the March sun reduced impact and made 3.12 an easy cleanup.

I think It’s the same thing that skewed the totals with the MLK storm. Those aren’t all event totals. And even the ones that are late, aren’t tacking on the on and off snow that came later. Yes the western part of the county got more of the midnight death band, but some of those totals are a little under represented because of the time of the report.

That band drops a little and it’s back on
