'94 definitely once in a lifetime.  Hope I don't see another.  I worked for an Oil Co back then.  It was complete insanity.  Customer's pipes froze from the outages, the owner was buying every 4 wheel pick up he could find and putting tanks in the back and spikes on the guy's feet.  Salesman became service techs, and we became a 24/7 operation and it took us weeks to get everyone back in heat.  Our phones were so busy, people were calling the police and they would come to the office and give us their service request.  Never again.  Some homes that endured no heat for weeks, finally getting the pipes thawed, only to then be taken out again from the flooding Brandywine due to the ice jams.

Call me crazy but I would highly enjoy another similar event. I didn't appreciate how once in a lifetime and how obscure that storm really was... 

Nam is horrible....more S.

I'll take 1-2" for each of the waves. Wed into Thurs, Thurs into Fri and Sat into Sun and be happy.

Nam's going throw a curve ball in a hour...

Once in a lifetime never again, reverse train track ruts on roads with inches of ice they couldn't melt, drove around like slot car racers for weeks. I bet the youngin's in here can't believe it but true.

 

My car took a beating that year. Alignment all screwed up, suspension and my brake line rusted and leakage..

I had 16F and rain in Horsham in 1994 I know it happens, I was expecting up to 1" snow today essentially WAA stuff before the warm air punched in. 

And now the sleet has changed to big puffy marshmallows lol

 

That was nuts....doubt I see anything like that again. Heavy rain and mid teens...

Even un-failable accu weather said snow on snow on snow this week right? What will family member say

I already have snow on snow on snow. I had snow on the ground (small pile) from Dec 16th then we had 2 more recent snows. So I may end up w/ snow on snow on snow on snow on snow on snow by Sunday w/all these waves...

Under those returns and not a flake. 12z GFS spit out the most grotesque conceivable two week run of cold rain even Dr. Evil couldn't have done it any better. 

 

It's shrinking/drying up as well.

Just seen Allentown only received 1.1" and Bushkill 1.4".

Overall just feel like we're going to get screwed w/all these little waves...underperformers. Only positive we'll have refreshers but nothing big and w/the cold air in place the snow isn't going anywhere...

Second day in a row w/o snow falling. Winter of azz!

The day's not over yet. We may get blessed by a couple lazy flakes in the next hour or so...30F/cloudy.

I still think this will be 3-6" region wide Wednesday night into thursday when all is said and done. Wave 2 may be another 1-3/2-4 type deal, not as confident that comes north enough. I'll be surprised if wave 1 is a complete fail here though, I think at the very least it will be a 1-3" refresher. 

I'd go w/2-4" for wave 1 and 1-2" for wave 2 at this point. Looks like this is more a MA forum storm than ours which doesn't happen often....good for them.

29F/Overcast

6z suite all ticked N with wave 1 but light precip. Wave 2 light precip. Sunday mix to rain.

6z Euro seems to have gone S. And the qpf is pretty sad throughout our area...

25F/Overcast

ECM went souther to non eventville 

 

Between going further south and that annoying dry slot this is destined to fail...we're running out of time for a N shift.

15F

Snow maps are meh. Given temps in the 20s and the surface maps qpf depiction, expected better than 1-3" but we take.

Not only that but it's going to be super light (intensity) considering the duration and only picking up a couple inches (if?)....

Already 17F @ 11:10pm

Glad I didn't take you up on your wager, this is looking like 5"+ when all is done.

Lost $100 on KC.

Poor Andy and his addict kids...

It's a heavy plaster job...sticking to everything

I would also feel more comfy if this was night and not happening during the day with the marginal BL.

By far this is my concern. Thinking 3-4am start time?

36F

Someone wake Animal for a brief but accurate insight of the Euro...

Just now, RedSky said:

3.5 to 5.5" in SE PA

there's an odd total 

That's the gambling odds ( KC -3.5) for the Superbowl, already took KC to cover for $100. So 4"+ in my neck of the woods is a lock...
