  1. Very pleased with this one. Mid-December and a very traditional winter storm around these parts...thump, mix, slot....maybe a few flakes to wrap things up later. We usually see 2 or 3 of these on avg every season. Im fine with having one under our belts before the solstice. We're on the board and on our way!
  2. 6" fluff before the flip. The sleet is factored as liquid equivalent I assume? But at what ratio?
  3. Warm punch was modeled on the NAM since Sunday actually. Most of us shrugged it off as the NAM at range but it led the way....again.
  4. Up to 5.5" here. Flakes easily 2" diameter at times. Can honestly say I have never seen snow like this before, not this size. Eta: Pingers mixing in
  5. 2"/hr rates here easily. Puking marshmallows attm!
  6. Its not, it is snowing heavily in Walli gford, Southern Delco. Same here (moderate) in warminster. Going sledding with the kids in the half inch we have....they r driving me nuts lol.
  7. One post says it is overperforming in DC, the next says its underperformed. Totally location dependent. Feeling better for where I'm at we can grab a quick half foot
  8. If thats the current radar that sleet line is wayyyyyy off.
  9. Starts the move to the ENE at a slightly lower latitude. Not a bad thing.
  10. I take full responsibility. I saw once the thread was started in the Mid Atl forum it began to unravel for them. I should have known better. The second I started one for us things began to unravel here. Not sure if they started one in the other PA forum.
  11. NWS is bullish asf for my township. 20" and code purple. Wow.
  12. Shades of March 2017. Slept for a few hours and had a wicked dream that I was physically encased in a tomb of sleet and ice. Woke up in a cold sweat....stepped out of bed and slipped on what felt like ice on my bedroom floor. Dog pissed. Jumped in shower, turned water on and ice sprayed out of the shower head. Woke up and realized I was having a dream inside of a dream. Weird stuff. Now I'm not sure if this is real or a dream.
  13. It's funny to see this trend to Boston now and the dryslot/mixing continue to punch farther N and W down here. Instead of moving due E the track keeps adjusting to crawl NE along the coast then bomb New England. Should we be surprised down here in SE PA?
  14. NAM still loves the mixing and icing even far N and W. Colder but icier. Might be time to start putting more weight into these looks.
  15. Wow widespread 12"+ even along i95 in that disco. Surprised by that tbh.
  16. Ahh, I thought you meant you've never seen it modeled. I misread that then.
  17. Yep. The 3k is sending up smoke signals. Eta: 6z and 18z runs over last 36 hrs have been west with slp only to adjust E at 0z or 12z. Something to keep in mind as we see hp and cad stronger each run but the slp track adjusts.
  18. You must be young or have selective memory then.
  19. Really? Ova? Not debating far N and W areas jackpotting. Discussing implications for marginal mixing areas around i95. Want to caution you in using the Euro for short range wrt micro situational forecasting such as CAD and banding. Defer to higher resolution mesos as lead times shrink. Entering 3k territory now.
  20. As I watch 6z roll in, it should be noted the NAM has trended 2-3mb stronger with the HP in SE Canada over the past 5 model runs and continues to show better CAD and ll cold in the area. Mixing still an issue along i95 but trend should be watched for future changes irt mix line advancement.
