I received 30” here. The airport at Allentown measured 31.9”. Up in the Carbon Cty area that you are referring to totals were less with amounts ranging from 10 to 20” depending on your location. That was near the northern edge of the storm’s effects.

The winds with Jonas were strong around the NYC area but not so much further inland. This storm will bring strong winds further inland as well.

I would not speak to soon regarding the outcome of this storm and whether it matches Jonas. As currently modeled this storm will be accompanied by strong gusty winds to 50 mph or more. This will whip up the dry powdery snow into huge drifts of up to 6-10 feet or more in many places This is the type of storm that can shut down highways for several days exacerbating existing supply chain shortages across many industries. This is what a crippling blizzard does.

I posted the map in the other thread set up for that event. As noted above we will know a lot more about Wednesday when the 12z runs come out tomorrow.

A lot of that precip is not reaching the ground- even in the higher elevations. -

Up in MPO this morning. Some light snow in the air blowing around on the roads. 27* -
I checked Penndot webcams along I-84 up in those areas. No snow on the ground in that area nor along I-380 near MPO. Could not tell if there was snow in the air.

If you look at the mesoscale models it becomes clearer. The winds mix down more effectively near the coast due to the lack of obstructions including hills, mountains, trees, structures, etc. Where we are in eastern PA there are landmass related obstructions to our south which impede the ability of the atmosphere to mix down the stronger winds from aloft. East of here when you look at a map showing where NYC/LI/coastal NJ are situated there is mostly open ocean or low lying coastal areas to their south. The result is the atmosphere can more effectively mix down those stronger winds from aloft. If you want to experience stronger winds out here you need elevation.

We are up to 2.00” on the day. Have been getting pounded during the past hour. Lots of lightning including CTG. Was just out and saw some good CTG strikes close up. We may not have received the wind but these thunderstorms mean business here.
