  1. ICON (sucks) came in warmer. Non-event for extreme SE PA counties
  2. I feel good that my area will not be too bad, but N and W of Doylestown.....yeahhhh
  3. NAM coming in colder and also back to the 2 wave idea with the weakness off the Mid Atl coast causing wind vectors to take on a slight Northerly component locking in low level cold. Going to get messy folks.
  4. ^^^Doubling down. Those that are certain icing isn't an issue this time of year only need to go back a couple of years in mid March. I assure you, it can happen.
  5. S NJ wasn't ever really in the threat zone, so yeah down that way should be ok. It is N and W of I95 that is the issue attm
  6. N and W is in trouble imho....especially up in the LV and Poconos
  7. Yep, looking more like frozen ending briefly as light rain/drizzle before dryslotting as other guidance is beginning to also show. Pretty typical look around these parts tbh.
  8. .54" freezing rain here on the Euro? Likely doesn't verify imby, but clear signal N and W for a significant impact winter event. I wonder if that one guy that is putting preemergent on his grass still thinks this is hype and will be a big nothing burger
  9. GFS and mesos continue to inch colder. 6z GFS only flips briefly to rain before ending here now. Euro similar and slightly colder. NaM is lost.
  10. Notable adjustments S with the CAA. Here are the last 4 GFS runs adjusting colder:
  11. Euro is trending quicker with the jump. 1010 and already well into the process of transferring the low to the frontrunner wave bagginess that hangs off the DelMarVa. That piece the NAM is keying on is critical in locking in low level cold with some northerly wind vectors...tho some other higher res stuff has this feature also.
  12. GFS also trended colder. Have a feeling the NAM is likely overdone as usual but probably has the right general idea. Expect guidance to continue hammering on the CAD as we get nearer. Different than other recent systems that went the opposite at this range.
  13. 18z rgem came in slightly colder at the surface
  14. 18z NAM is a disaster....if you like colder, snowier, then icier Thursday before flipping Friday
  15. They know how these go this time of year. Congrats Boston.
  16. I've seen ice storms in late February before. It isnt unheard of. ETA: though most signatures on guidance are more sleety and less freezing rain, but we'll see.
  17. Seeing the trend toward 2 waves now....which can sometimes spell a significant frozen event interior. Wave 1 Thursday, pulls down some CAA in its wake, then wave 2 Friday likely beginning as frozen in SE PA but flips wave 2 to rain unless in the LV where I would start to be concerned. Still a ways to go but definitely evolving hour by hour . RGEM is also quite cold moreso than the globals.
  18. Alot of this is sleet, but the frozen signal for Thurs/Fri is close to being locked in now.
  19. Ridge axis just too far displaced to the East has been a recurring theme with many storms this winter.
  20. 18z GFS just made a big move toward the CAPE storm, or someone's storm not sure who claimed it, the one on the 27th/28th. Sorry if I credited the wrong storm owner/name dubber person.
  21. Euro says its over after March 2. Entire continent all the way to the Arctic circle floods with PAC warmth, no cold air left to tap. Im fine with that:
  22. Euro trending colder for the late week system. Hints at a followup system just to our South late next weekend.
