Long range HRRR 

What did u end up with out there? I had 2.75 when I headed out about 5:30 

27 wth light to occasionall moderate snow about to end measured 2.75”

Towel officially thrown in from me, 10 day threats again seem to be very uninspiring. While it hasn't been a complete bust out this way it sure would've been nice to have a 4-8 storm for the winter not counting November that is. I'm over these 1-3 to Ice slop fests see ya in the severe season threads.

Was just reading that Mamouth mountain California is up to 24’ of snow in just February how insane is that

Lots of folks with out power in Eastern Ohio and Pittsburgh it’s coming 

34 with light rain, miserable 

You know this will verify it’s not Snow, as saturated as the ground is there will likely be some uprooted trees.

Pretty sad the only true SNOW event all season was the November storm pretty much snow from start to finish. I keep hearing Pattern change for March now, Well been hearing about this change every month since December and still waiting. Bring on Striper and Mx season my son is ready to go. 

Right at .25 ice, still below freezing at 31 not sure if I ever went above freezing, my road is a skating rink every thing covered in ice

Roads out here are treacherous, 29 with freezing drizzle some pines are drooping already

29 with freezing drizzle, looks like steady precip moving in from SW by 7:30?

.41 of ice no way, at least I hope not 

28 with light freezing drizzle, what a failure this might be the end for me, I’m within 5” of reaching 20” but man these events have been horrible. 

27 with freezing rain in Boyertown

My wife watches WNEP in the morning before work, so I happened to catch Joe Snedeker's forecast this morning, and after the initial show of snow, he said the precipitation would be "showery" the rest of the day. So far, he seems to have barked up the right tree...

Yeah just read the afternoon AFD from Mt Holly, Moderate to Hvy precip should move back in later toward evening, 

I figured it was gonna go all day into this evening I have the same 2.5 with flurries 

2.5 in Spring Twp. very light snow, looking at the radar seems spotty for now. 

Where is the best radar site to watch this?? 

26 with moderate-Heavy snow .75 in a little over an hour in Boyertown Pa

A "Watch" is just a "Watch".   It's like a placeholder announcement that can eventually become either a Winter Weather Advisory or a Winter Storm Warning depending on whether the forecast reaches the criteria at a location .   Just like a "Tornado Watch" can become a "Tornado Warning" or not and gets assigned to be some kind of other severe weather alert.  Or a "Flood Watch" can become a "Flood Warning" or a "Flood Advisory" depending on what is ongoing (or forecast to happen) at the time.

It amazes me that some folks have a hard time distinguishing the difference between a watch, warning, advisory. Seems we go through this every year. I’m in the 4-6 range but my criteria for a warning is 6+ however due to the possibility of icing as well that’s likely why it’s a warning. Should be an interesting storm to watch unfold

Probably in the afternoon package.  They have a 12-hour & a 24 hour criteria per my post here -

 

Yeah they mention in this mornings AFD update that they will be updated at 4pm with the afternoon package 

About 20 minutes of sleet last night, then rain with temps holding at 33 all night current temp 37. Snow and ice Wednesday then near 50 Thursday

Another "concrete" storm coming to the LV next week. After an inch of two inches of snow on Sunday night,  2-4 more inches with sleet and freezing rain piled for good measures on Wednesday. This is the first year in at least a decade where I could not use my snow thrower as the "concrete" is just too dam heavy. Anyway, I am so tired of model fluctuation. The GFS and Euro said nearly foot yesterday are back down to less than 6 inches. I have come to the conclusion that models cannot handle the CAD AT ALL.  They should have a sleet and freezing rain clown maps to prove my point or better yet an overall CAD map with a severity index. Then the snow clown maps would be more realistic. Should not be hard to take the soundings of the major cities along the east coast and combine them into an individual  CAD map for easier visualization. If they can do it for snow, they can do it for freezing rain and sleet. And before any one barks. I know they have sleet and freezing rain maps already but an overall "potential CAD Formation Map with a severity ranking"would be nice in the model runs since this feature is not readily apparent to many amateur posters who just look at the clown maps for discussion.

Even after yesterdays 60 degree temp I still have a decent glazed over snow pack, looks like a carbon copy of last week maybe a bit colder as there is no mention of plan rain in my forecast. Then another one possible next weekend
