Yup. And if you wanted to catch the first flurry or flurries of a storm, you made sure that something was (just) blocking the actual light. If not, the light was too bright to see those first flakes falling.

I remember the NOAA weather cube (box) days. RadioShack sold them I believe. When snow was coming I'd hit that button about 15 minutes past the hour for the "current" conditions to see when Harrisburg, Reading, or Philly had a report of snow to see how close it was getting to the Lehigh Valley.

It seems as if most celestial events are marred by cloud cover in these parts...
-
Seems a tad warm, but for now anyway, CTP has rain and snow showers for the 24th and 25th for the Skook... Thursday A chance of rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 44. Chance of precipitation is 50%. Thursday Night A chance of rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 23. Chance of precipitation is 40%. Christmas Day A chance of snow showers. Partly sunny, with a high near 31. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

Getting some nice dendrites mixing in with the smaller flakes now, so the heavier stuff is hopefully is moving in. I just wish the wife was home from work already. She has a rental car that she's not familiar with as her Jeep is in the body shop getting fixed from when a deer ran into her drivers side fender and front door about a month ago.

I take a ride with my next door neighbor to go to Macungie to get a truckload of heating oil and come back to an I-81 mauling on the NAM's. Unbelievable!!!

You forget me and my Schuylkill County pixie dust...lol
-
Mine's mad at me all the time. I don't need a snowstorm to pizz her off...lol
-
What's with that area of lighter accumulations (8-10 inches) in the Lehigh Valley? Subsidence between banding features? If so, that's a bit to close for comfort for me...
-
If you're talking about the 3k then yes, I most definitely agree!
-
Oh no they didn't... Wednesday Night Snow before 1am, then snow and sleet. The snow and sleet could be heavy at times. Low around 23. Northeast wind 8 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New precipitation amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible.
-
I hope you're right, but I've seen these things go sideways so many times that I just naturally have a "what can go wrong" mindset.

There must be something to the Susquehanna that does it. Acts like a wind tunnel, perhaps? No doubt...
-
I swear, our weather up here is NOTHING like what you get down there. Every time you guys post about crazy winds, I sit here wondering, "what wind???".
-
I just hate that right turn the 18-24 contour takes right when it gets to Schuylkill County.
-
18z RGEM Kuchera gives me 36 inches. Can I lock it in?
-
Mine's almost the same. No precip amounts, though... Wednesday Snow showers, mainly after 1pm. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 28. East wind 5 to 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. Wednesday Night Snow showers. The snow could be heavy at times. Low around 21. Chance of precipitation is 90%. Thursday A chance of snow showers before 1pm. Partly sunny, with a high near 30. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

A westward shift would possibly put me in the purple 24-28 inch contour.
-
Oh yeah, I believe this is going to be a good one! I was speaking of past (and likely future) storms where I sit on the gradient from hell...lol Yes it is. No matter how much we get, we want more, and even if we get clocked by one storm, we'll still be po'd if the next one misses.
-
I think the worst for me is when three quarters of the forum is "puking snow" and I'm looking at "pixie dust". I can handle being on the warm side and it being a rainer while it's snowing elsewhere. Getting a leaf blower storm while 30 miles away their digging out gets under my skin.
-
For today's obs so far: A mix of rain, sleet, and snow falling. No pavement accumulations, but cars are slushy, and the grass has a white hue to it. Temp is 36 currently.
-
Thanks guys!
-
No problem, thanks. Almost every other model rocks NEPA, except for the GFS.
-
What's the GFS seeing that the other models aren't? The Poconos above I-80 don't really get much. That dip south puts me on a tight gradient, perhaps not even seeing a foot here. I believe this is at least the second run that's done this.
