    Ripping good here. Perhaps 1/8 mile visibility currently. The treeline beyond the houses on the right, barely visible in the pic, are a half block away.

    Was just going to say, our winds are starting to pick up, and now flake size is increasing as the intensity is picking up. I think we got ourselves a storm now. Temp 23.2
  3. Voyager
    Just measured 2" in the backyard. Flake size back to almost pixie dust again, though. Looks like we'll get some heavier banding coming through in the next few hours though. Temp continues to drop. Down to 23.9 now.

    Got about an inch so far. Haven't actually measured yet, but everything has caved, and snowing at a pretty good rate now too. Temp 24.6

    I've noticed that too. The sun just feels hotter on my skin than it used to. I wonder if age and thinning skin plays a part in that, though.
  6. Voyager
    Much heavier, although finer, snow coming down now. Anything that wasn't previously salted has now caved. Temp 26.8
  7. Voyager
    They do. https://www.511pa.com/#:Alerts

    Temp is dropping like a rock now. Down nearly one full degree since my last post 10 minutes ago. Went from 28.4 to 27.5

    I'm at 28.4 and yet the snow is having a hard time accumulating even on my Jeep which has not been run yet today. Is it me, or is solar radiation stronger now than it was, say 30+ years ago? I don't remember snow having such a hard time accumulating at sub 30 degree temperatures back in the days of my youth.

    I hope so. Sometimes sky conditions fortel what's to come. I remember a good number of years ago where the day prior, we were sitting on the edge of a cirrus deck that had blue skies to the north and west and clouds to the south and east. We ended up getting 2" out of a warned storm where Allentown and points south got double digit totals.

    I'd be lying if I said this didn't make me nervous, as I've seen it before. The sun visible in the clouds at the onset of the storm. A few times, it was the the harbinger of a bust that ended up being way less than what was originally forecast.

    Snow started on Tamaqua about a half hour ago. Liking the large flake size so far. Temp 29
  13. Voyager
    Yeah, I know it's been "holy" all week. Maybe because it's a Sunday storm...lol I know that won't verify as shown, it was more tongue in cheek and a bad attempt at being humorous, just like my quip above.
  14. Voyager
    Good God Almighty. WTF is this???? Look at that Tamaqua snow hole. I know it won't be right () but still...
  15. Voyager
    My observation of the bolded part of the quote is that I've seen this many times, so there's some truth to it. The flip side of that is that my location north of the Blue Mountain in Schuylkill County ends up being in a subsidence zone.

    I'll be the first to admit that I'm ready for break in the cold. It makes my job so difficult, so on that note I'm hoping to see the AN for February. With that said, I'd still like to see a solid thump before this crazy cold this week.
  17. Voyager
    My forecast went from 4-8 down to 3-5.
  18. Voyager
    The NAM is a Tamaqua screw job, but I've seen that exact scenario plays out numerous times in the 20 years I've been living up here.
  19. Voyager
    I don't pay for models. What does the 18z Euro show?
  20. Voyager
    So does any of the more knowledgeable folks have an idea on ratios? I usually look at the Kuchera snow maps, but I know they're not 100% accurate. I'd like to see QPF and figure out the snow with potential ratios
  21. Voyager
    The NAM's are a joke right now (unless they pull off a coup) as nearly every other model has warning criteria snow at least east of I-81.
  22. Voyager
    Quite nice indeed, but that hour panel is an absolute sledgehammering for NYC...
  23. Voyager
    Lol... 6 inches of snow in New Orleans would be pretty impressive though
  24. Voyager
    I remember that one. Good storm, but I can't recall if we had thunder or not.
  25. Voyager
    That would be so awesome. I haven't experienced thundersnow since the Blizzard of 96.
