24F with steady snow falling again

24F with moderate snow right at at 1” roads are a mess.

Can we lock it in, if we’re going by the nickle and dime events that just might be a fifty center

Absolutely, pick the least possible snow scenario and book it in this pattern.

Hey that’s me zone, I take but in all reality I’ll take my <1 and be happy

I’m surely not ready to cancel winter on the 13th of January, I still think we get hit with one good storm probably later on towards February. As long as cold air is around we stand a good chance we don’t need anymore Arctic intrusion’s. Anyway 40F feels good even with the clouds

I look at that map and realistically see C-2 or 2-4” been the trend all season hard to go against it

I’m in Western Berks I got .3 myself

24F .35” of sparkling snow this brings me to 3.90” for season so far.

30F/Dp13 cloudy, Eagerly awaiting my 0.5” I hope I can sleep.

I fully expect a cutter or a Southern slider, unless it shows 1-2” I’m not interested

27F/wc12F NW25/Gusting to 39 I’m over this damn wind thing.

<2” book it for sure, my coating could use a refresher

Only If it had some support, its does look good though

17F/Dp4F NW@18 gusts to 40mph making it feel like 4F

You can lock-in that scenario.

Ok since joining this site I think I’ve gathered quite a bit of knowledge as well as the extreme highs and lows in expectations with that said I just want to confirm a few things. The main reason for our cold/dry weather is due to the 50/50 low that is trapped due to the strong -NAO, do we need one or the other weaker or in a different position? Because I’ve always thought both of these features are needed for our snowy winters. Now I get there are other factors as well, but it seems the culprit in this windy cold winter that damn 50/50 is messing up things.

I think we all feel your frustration to some extent, seems we've found everyway to fail at snow the last few winters. We still have a ways to go though so hopefully we can score here as this pattern breaks down, Cold and dry doesn't work well with me either.

30F WC17 NW@22 gust39 mph mostly sunny skies.

This^^^^^ I is so true growing up I remember the 2-4,4-8 type storms were quite common, 93, 96 were all anomalies one in a hundred year storms for a reason I know we’ve had a couple since then but not to that extent. So I welcome any snow that falls especially with the BN temps to keep it around longer than a day

Im not totally giving up hope just yet still a few days to sort things out. but yeah tempering expectations is theme so far this winter.

Seems like the trend so far this winter, take the lowest expected snowfall and go with it. Another 1-3 to refresh my 1.5 on the ground I take.

Maybe we nickle and dime our way to normal snowfall. We do that pretty good lately

27F just flurries now maybe another coating? Snow on snow can’t beat it

28F looks like one more round of snow to go, maybe an inch more?
