Up to 0.5" of sleet and still moderate sleet falling here in NW Chesco temp down to 26.8

Up to 0.5" of sleet and still moderate sleet falling here in NW Chesco temp down to 26.8

All roads covered as our 10th winter event of the winter of 2024-25 is underway. Heaviest sleet so far temp down to 26.9

Of course as you knew...absolutely nothing attributed to climate change.....the crazy reach climate alarmists wish for always leads to yet another epic fail....so sad!

And just like that over to steady sleet temp 29.5

Some flakes starting to fly here in EN temp 29.5 DP 12.7....sounds like mainly IP/ZR already in Southern Chesco - so this will go over to slop pretty quickly. Winter Event #10 in our busy winter weather event season underway!

Only if we can ever link climate change to any adverse real world weather events....

Radar starting to blossom out here in NW Chesco....saw a couple sleet pellets so far - temp 30.0 degrees DP 11.7 (I smell a sleet fest incoming)

This is the truth! But I do kind of suspect a bit more accumulation of snow/sleet (mainly sleet) today vs the 0.3" on Thursday

The HRRR struggles mightily with mid level warming.....always lean to the NAM in these cases

The north trend has begun!!! Per Positive Paul!!

12z GFS creeping back north for this week's event...

The cult religion of Climate Change Alarmism is quickly being removed and modified on FEMA’s website. The page on “Climate Resilience” has been renamed “Future Conditions” The Biden era alarmist website read “Climate Change is the defining crisis of our time. From extreme heat, drought and wildfires to more severe coastal storms, sea level rise and inland flooding, the consequences of climate change are all around us” The new scrubbed and corrected website now more accurately describes the true current state. “Disaster incidents are rising due to increased human vulnerability, exposure and a changing climate. From extreme heat, drought and wildfires to more severe coastal storms, sea level rise and inland flooding, the consequences are all around us. These challenges are further compounded by increased construction and population movement to vulnerable areas.” It’s just so great to see the old junk science and climate alarmist garbage on our government websites being rightfully tossed in the trash! Great start with the new Administration!! Can’t wait to see what’s next!!

Today will actually be our 10th winter event of the 2024-2025 season. While we have only added up to 15.1" of snow/sleet so far this season that is 77% of our average snow through today. For Team Snow if you are upset with our snow deficit this year....imagine if you lived in the upper Midwest. Here in Chester County, we have almost 40% more snow so far this winter season than both Minneapolis and Chicago? Today we should see snow arriving this afternoon quickly changing to sleet and then freezing rain. Driving this evening should be discouraged. We have a few more winter events in our future this week. However, the trend has been overall for less snow than earlier modeled. That said several inches of snow and sleet remain possible before the Friday morning rush hour. No doubt many forecast changes remain this week.

We also have the NBM ticking up from it's 6z run....if you choose to believe!!

The 6z ops looked less than great....but as Positive Paul....the GFS Ensemble did almost double from it's 0z run for this week. The trend begins???????....

The fact the 18z Euro ensemble is the same as 12z says the operational was a lower outlier....plenty of time to come back

I always like a south Goofus a few days prior to an event - let the north trend begin at 0z!!! NWS discussion says their confidence is increasing for a mid week plowable event

Inches of sleet so if you see 1.0 inches that is about 0.30" of liquid = sleet - not really a perfect calculation but gives a general idea

From the Mt Holly discussion... There is a chance of warning level ice across parts of southeastern PA, with the highest odds across Chester and Montgomery Counties, but not confident in issuing any ice storm warnings yet, so capped ice below 1/4 inch for the time being.

agreed!

truth!
