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...

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...

Ok Euro, keep us on track or better...

Indeed she does look a bit underprepared! When in doubt do as the nws! I think her forecasting has improved over the last 10 years and this situation is fairly textbook for the met vetrans in the area. Probably a good call but could see this map getting amounts reduced and moved N & W. 

Considering my location, I hope.

Overall I'll be happy w/3"+....not that long ago this thing was a no-go.

My call along I-95 4-7” with isolated 8” amounts includes Northern De NE Md Delaware County Chester County Montgomery County Berks County PHL to Trenton to Allentown. Highest amounts fall line about 20 miles west and NW of I-95 

?

Think the highest will be SE of Philly at this point IMO? NJ...

Fox29 @ 10pm snow map. Seems like a safe bet at this point...glad the NJ folks are getting some accumulation. 

Glenn's excited...he's twitching.

Mt holly first call:

 

 

Looks good, pretty bullish especially into s jersey. They don't seem to think the rain/snow line progresses past the shore at this time based on that map.

Really don't think that will pan out, way too far S.... 

My buddy Glenn thinks it last into the afternoon on Sunday...5pm Fri on air totals for Sun: 

Means "jack" but 6abc (accu-weather) upped their totals from 3-5" to 3 - 6" at 4pm from earlier.....

We are torching today... Almost up to 50 in Trenton. Heavy meltdown. We're gonna need that 3-6" on Sunday to refresh the pack.

Yep, 48F here....more than I anticipated.

Bruce just called in to WIP. (they gave him credit for last weeks prediction for the general area but he didn't predict anything for this Sun) Why he called in? It's "National Weatherperson's Day", I didn't know, had to look it up. He's a true weenie....

https://www.weather.gov/cae/NationalWeatherpersonsDay#:~:text=February 5th is National Weatherperson's,of John Jeffries in 1744.

47F

This would be perfect for Superbowl Sunday. Storm comes in early Sun morning (3-4am?)....snows till late morning/noonish? I shovel, get my shit together by mid/late afternoon then plant my ass on the recliner for the Superbowl w/a cold one(s)...

6abc/Accuweather noon map:

Overall things look pretty good for a nice 6-8 hour event that drops 3-6" for much of the area with an outside shot of 6-10" in a narrow corridor with the heaviest rates. I don't believe this will be elevation dependent, more so rate dependent when it comes to accumulation.

You're probably too young (maybe not born?) but back in the day Elliot Abrams would call this type of storm a "Quick Six" referring to Birds receiver Mike Quick. The storm comes in dumps a sizeable amount then races out...

Euro looks better....

Hope it goes exactly as the NAM shows so the south&east crowd can have redemption. I'm like tired of snow I got too much. 

 

A "as of now"  Ch6/Accu Weather 11pm snow prediction map. A 1-3"/2-4" inch thing is fine. A refresher/snow on snow thing. It heads out by afternoon, shovel then grab beer and food for the Superbowl. Works for me...

I was trained by Tom Lamaine (KYW) years ago...

Is he still living❓

Blast from the past.

He retired from KYW in 2008 and I can't find anything if he passed...so yeah, I imagine he's still going.

My offices spotter page is linked below. There are currently no classes scheduled. Probably not until the Spring. The classes are free and are held virtually.

Thanks for the info...I always wondered how this worked.
