  1. Anything over 20 inches here in Tamaqua is uncharted territory...for me, anyway. The area might have had more in 1993, since, from what I'm told, had little to no mixing. I'm hoping my wife and friends share pics so I can see from afar how things turn out locally. Beyond my backyard, I'll be living this one out via all of your keyboards and camera lenses. Enjoy all!
  2. I wonder what's up with that circle of lower totals the NAM keeps showing in eastern PA? It jumps around a bit from the Lehigh Valley to the Poconos, but it seems to be there nearly every run.
  3. The irony of all this that it could potentially be the biggest snowstorm since I moved back to PA, and Tamaqua, in 2001, and I won't be here to see it...
  4. If my new employer hadn't already booked and paid for my flight, I might have been inclined to push it back a week so I could see this unfold...
  5. OMG!!! It would only be fitting that I wasn't home to see something like that. It would be an all-timer for me as the most I saw from one storm was 26" in Bethlehem. It would be the fence hider (tried buryer, but there's no spell correct for it) that I've always dreamed of...
  6. Wow!!! Thanks! Obviously nothing is etched in stone yet with this storm, but now I've got mixed feelings about flying out tomorrow. I may miss a classic...lol.
  7. I don't get off hour euro maps. What are they showing?
  8. When I saw the map on Facebook, I was wondering the same thing. What's the difference in the two zones?
  9. They meant to say a 2-3 foot swath of heavy snow surrounded by flurries...
  10. That's the second model that put a big donut hole almost on top of Hazleton. Crazy...
  11. Yup that was another one. The heavy echos were streaming north, and I radar watched all night long as they disintegrated when they hit the Berks/Schuylkill County line on the Blue Mountain.
  12. Yup been there, done that. Don't want the t-shirt...lol
  13. Oh, that one was bad. Allentown had more than a foot if I recall, and I used a wisk broom to sweep off my sidewalk. That was worse than the times Atlantic City got a blizzard and I got flurries in ABE.
  14. lol at the Ukie. 17.2" in Allentown and 3.8" in Hazleton. Of course, I've seen that actually happen a few times in the past 20 years since I'm here.
  15. The neighbor has a quad with a blade, so I'm good...lol
  16. They are very territorial, and take their snow extremely seriously. They really don't like outsiders coming into their sub-forum for some reason, especially those who come from climatologically favored snow areas...
  17. Yes. I do too. It makes a tolerable cold day painful and miserable.
  18. Lol...my flight path. AVP to ORD before Houston...
  19. Wow...that's got to be some kind of hiccup, no? I mean, can something trend that bad in one run? Seriously, that's not what I hoped for when I said I hope the snow comes in after my flight out.
  20. Now this makes me wish I was going to start the job the following week. I may miss out on a good one. That I didn't want to hear. My brother-in-law is going to drive me up to the airport in Scranton. I'm guessing we'll leave between 8 and 9 am.
  21. Congrats Binghamton??? I know, now I'm going to be
  22. So I'm flying out 11:15am on Sunday. Looking at most of the models, I may get out, and my ride gets home, before the snow breaks out. (edited to add other than the GFS which brings precip in earlier than the others...)
  23. Thanks. It depends on how many nights they want to put me up in a motel. I'm not sure they'll want to spring for an extra night. I can't believe we've gone over a month without a big storm, and now, on my possible departure day, we may be in one...ugh. That's why I had hoped it was going to be a Monday-Tuesday event instead of perhaps a Sunday--Monday one.
  24. My new company is going to call me to set up travel arrangements for my new job, so I'm trying to figure out timing of my flight, most likely (hopefully) early Sunday. I want to try and get out before the snow flies if possible so as not to put my family in any kind of danger driving me to the airport and back home again after dropping me off. What looks, and I know it's early and much could change, to be the best estimate of onset of precipitation? I will be flying out of Scranton or Allentown.
