What's up with that big snow hole over Mahantango's house?
-
Yes. One last summer, and many when I previously lived here from 96-01. The big ones are quite an experience.
-
Surprisingly, more people here in Phoenix probably know what graupel is, simply because when do manage to get anything frozen out of the sky in winter, it's almost always graupel.
-
Yeah, depending region you're probably right. My home in Tamaqua though, we'd get our heaviest burst just before changing over. When I'd see the flake size grow and it would be dumping mad dendrites, I'd tell my wife it was about to flip...and it almost always did.
-
Almost everytime I "smelled the rain", within the hour it was indeed raining. Living that close to the changeover can be a real nailbiter. For the lucky few who never see the change, the reward is worth it, though.
-
Maybe you should stay out of our thread. Most of us get along quite well and don't mind the off topic (and sometimes off color) banter. We're all friends here, and every one of the regular, long term posters are well respected.
-
Oh, and on a side note. I may see some snow in Tucson on Monday morning.
-
I can relate to the snow hole as models always predicted a lower total "horseshoe" around Tamaqua no matter which way the storm was coming.
-
All I can say from 2,300 miles away is that I'm rooting for you guys. We rain on Wednesday night/Thursday morning. I guess that's your weekend storm. I really hope you all get smoked with this one!
-
CTP seems fairly confident for a storm nearly a week away. Of course this is subject to change, but seeing likely and 70% chance this far out is intriguing. For Tamaqua: Saturday Night Snow likely. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 27. Chance of precipitation is 70%. Sunday A chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 34. Chance of precipitation is 50%.

Solid...
-
It's only January 1st for Christ's sake...
-
You guys need to slow down on your posting. You're going to turn this potential snowstorm into a rainstorm...
-
What did it show? I don't pay for premium, so I can only see the 0z and 12z runs.
-
I don't know if I've ever seen a map with that kind of straight line cutoff that shuts out everyone from Buffalo to Albany to Boston and North. Solid snowstorm for I-80 and south though.
-
In all honesty, we aren't going to sniff 70 for quite awhile as a cool regime locks in for awile out here.
-
25 to 30 are perfect snow temps. Cold enough to accumulate, but not to cold to go out and enjoy it.
-
Not sure.
-
I know. I'm legit worried about even flying back for a visit...
-
I'm telling you, winter won't return to PA until I do. Wherever I am, there too shall the cold be. Look at last year. Coolest and wettest winter in the southwest in over a decade. And back when I was trucking coast to coast, whatever side of the country I was at was where a trough had set up. When I was in California you were warm and dry and I was cold and rainy/snowy. Then, when I was home, the west was warm and dry, and PA was cold and rainy/snowy. Mother Nature hates me...
-
5:00AM Arizona nooners. 40 degrees.
-
Wet or white, that storm would be a beast...
-
I agree with you. Suppressed storms can and do trend west and slam the region. Cutters never seem to trend east. One they cut, they never seem to come back.
-
Don't feel bad. I almost made a similar post, but saw why he's there. Sorry for your loss @canderson
-
Seriously??? PA or AZ, it makes no difference to the weather gods.
