    Steady light snow with visibility at about 3/4 mile. Visibility’s to my west in the Allentown area are about the same. 24F. Roads and sidewalks quickly covered.

    Flurries here. 25F

    Light snow is reaching the ground now almost to the west side of Allentown.

    Blooming radar is nice however much of what is seen over PA currently to the north and east of Harrisburg is virga.
  5. Tatamy
    RGEM is also south.

    I am waiting for the 0z runs where the models tighten the screws on the weenies regarding this event. That seems to be the pattern for the past two nights…lol

    It’s done. Confluence FTW.

    There is a radar site up in that area in Ricketts Glen State Park. It’s called the Benton FAA radar site and it’s on a mountain top north of Berwick. It’s a fascinating story about how this was once a military site and was subsequently transferred to the FAA. I knew nothing about it until one day I drove past it and thought it looked very much like a Doppler site (It’s not). It’s been upgraded and is now classified as a CARSR radar site and supposedly has weather data processing capabilities.

    This is the current view at Strausstown along I78.

    Light snow and flurries here. I checked out the Penndot cams along I78 and it’s coming down hard there west of Hamburg.

    Starting to see some very light snow and flurries with the weak disturbance moving SE across PA. Not expecting more than a dusting here if that into this evening.

    lol - Icon gives me 7” (10:1) on 18z. This is starting to remind of the system that produced the I78 death band last year. The gradient was such that you could find a 4” accumulation difference on opposite ends of a town just south of me. Either way there will be a big time gradient with it.

    What is it that the EPS is seeing at 18z that the 18z GEFS is not? There’s something in the data stream that it’s parsing out that the other models aren’t (yet?). I get the part with the confluence however there seems to be more to it.

    I have measured 127 lightning strikes in the past three hours on my Tempest.

    Loud booming thunder here for New Years Eve

    Going back to tonight’s system there’s a really interesting look to the radar right now to my south in the Philly area. The echos look to be convective in nature as they race off to the north ahead of the main band of rain. Big time squall line moving onto the eastern shore. Partly cloudy here with some stars visible.

    Add in 78 and 79

    06Z/31 EC illustrates your point very well.

    70s and 80s here on LI. I honestly felt that the climate would only produce 6”+ storms maybe 2-3 times per decade.

    I was not expecting that. I actually had been looking forward to several days of warmer weather to close out the end of the year however it starting to look like I will be disappointed. I even put my snowblower away today figuring I would not need it for a least a week to 10 days or so.

    Mt Holly in their evening AFD noted their concern about the possibility of a coastal developing on Wednesday and Wednesday night bringing snow to parts of the Poconos.

    18Z GFS really outdid itself for Happy Hour tonight.

    I was looking at one of webcams that I follow out on Fire Island and noticed some ice on the water near the docks. This is a sign that the ocean and near shore waters are cooling as we go further into the winter season. This will become a player when we get our next winter storm.

    Snow has ended here. Final total is 1.0”
  25. Tatamy
    Having a nice burst of snow this morning. 0.8” new
