Superstorm

MU guy says he is up to 4.7” and puking snow.


.

Channel 21 with a laughable trace to 2" for most of the Lsv.

Any chance for thundersnow?


.

NAM holds for LSV

True Central PA would be in trouble for advisory amounts based on Euro.

Winter Storm Watch finally issued for Adams, York and Lancaster.

3k and 12k are still world's apart with southern totals.  Again, how much white rain falls?  Elevation, as always, will help tremendously. 

Its all about rates with that deformation band.  If it is puking 2 to 3 inch per hour, it is going to accumulate and fast.

8AM tomorrow per HRRR is puking snow over the LSV

Wow!  3" per hour.

HRRR continues trend south


.

Models keep slipping south.


.

Of course because I am at my Connecticut house it wants to trend south.


.

Here is the look...unfortunately I think much of the Western snow dries out as it moves East....to the point that it is fairly light. 

 

Long range HRRR snow.  Note is still snowing for most at this point.  In the LSV, if you are south of the turnpike its a battle most of the night.  North and west of I-81 and north of Route 78 turn over to snow most quickly

Money shot for the HRRR.   As the low continues east, more areas to the south and east change over to snow. 

 
 
 

I booked a room just north of Syracuse so I can drive north, east or west based on weather conditions.


.

Models trending toward current setup. Won’t be surprised to see even further north corrections.


.

I’m in New Hampshire today. 62F on the car thermometer.


.

18z EPS slight shift south over 12z.
18z EPS also upped snow amounts for the LSV this run.
12z top

11th consecutive morning above freezing- low was 34.

Early Spring

And I am old enough to see the Association come full circle.
I grew up watching both the NBA and the ABA. The ABA was noteworthy for 2 things...they used a red, white and blue ball, and there was no defense. When the ABA merged with the NBA in the 1970s, coming into the Association was a whole bunch of high flying scorers. Julius Erving was one of the most famous. After that, scoring gradually started to come down to where teams would average right around 100 points. Then the late 80s and especially the 90s featured the bad boy Detroit Pistons and a whole new, physical style of play along with it. They had success and other teams followed. Suddenly games were ending 86-78 and the like.
Today's game leaves me feeling very conflicted. While I can appreciate the level of athleticism, the game has evolved into shootouts. Guys driving to the cup for an easy layup but instead firing the rock out to the perimeter for yet another 3. Defense is not emphasized until the 4th quarter. It's entertaining for a lot...the one thing that it isn't is "pure" basketball. And it's one of many reasons why I'm a former season ticket holder and have no plans on attending a single game this season.
That's my perspective as a 50+ year fan of the game. My 28 year old son can't get enough of it, so there's definitely an appeal to some.

The fog...wow. It is definitely under the dense fog category. Visibility is way down and still dropping. Official temp is 48.8

Sunday/Monday could be fun:

I see lower elevations around me got into the single digits. I was only able to get to 14.9F.

The Stage Setter (probably not this run though as the 31rst clipper is coming in a bit too far north) is a decent slop snow for half of PA on the 18Z GFS.
