Rain, snow or some other form, we just need the moisture given the ongoing drought.
-
It certainly looks and feels like snow is on the way, but then looking at the radar it does look all that impressive. I noticed the HRRR and the NAM/NAM nest narrowing the precipitation shield especially farther south like in the Philly metro area with it completely ending faster south of there. Radar trends so far seem to be showing that evolution so far. Time will tell.

The NAM was heavy on the sleet with the last storm which was overdone. Let’s see if that repeats with this storm later today and tonight.
-
Picked up 0.10 inches of ice due to freezing rain and also a trace of sleet. Next!
-
Yup, nothing like seeing precipitation on the radar overhead for awhile yet you keep looking out at the porch light and see no snow.
-
PHL's dew point is at 12F as of 8 PM. Mount Pocono's dew point is sitting at 7F.
-
The 00z Dulles/Sterling RAOB (sounding) already shows a decent layer of above freezing air aloft. It is not above freezing by much but it is there. This likely is not as warm aloft farther northeast yet along with much drier air.
-
The dew points are certainly low. It will be interesting to see what happens overnight and early Thursday morning as the initial cooling occurs with the onset of the precipitation while the warm air advection strengthens the warm layer aloft. It will be a battle!

Tray tables up and fasten seatbelts.

All aboard the GFS train.
-
The 18z NAM has quite the 700-850 mb FGEN forcing resulting in that initial focused band of heavier snow.
-
Who or what was forecasting 50 degrees today in the Poconos?
-
0.54 inches of rain here.
-
This rain is much needed, but also great to see the layers of salt finally washed away.

Snow is really coming down at the Eagles game. Nice! -

Trouble multitasking? -
There is nothing to fix. Read the times on the map. The storm total is on our winter page with winter weather headlines posted. The “additional snow” is in the text products when the forecaster chooses to do that especially when how much snow fell so far in areas is unknown (I tend not to agree with this as the storm total should still be included). Also, always check your local Point and Click forecast for the most updated amounts.

Quite the interesting storm so far. I have snow flakes, snow grains and graupel all coming down at the same time. Surfaces coated up quickly. 32F
