    When is start time for this?  I'm getting the vax in the afternoon I hope I'm not impacted...

    Afternoon is vague since it's a 6 hour time span but I wouldn't think things get dicey to the evening at the earliest...

    Honestly the flood threat is now more intriguing than any winter threat next week. Brutal trends the last 24 hours.  But if the gfs and cmc are correct and we see 2 separate 1" basin wide rain storms, we could see some serious flooding. Pretty disappointing developments though coming off a -5sd ao. Maybe late month into March will deliver, but I think we slide into an early spring pattern after next week.

    You're taking that route so early when models have been all over the place?

    Started off February rocking with a B to an A+ storm depending on location, and a two week outlook that was OFF THE HOOK GREAT LOOKING. What has happened since? Performed at the extreme low end snow potential guidance envelope, and the best the third week can offer is an ice storm of some kind. 

    I'm rooting for hours of heavy rain with temps in the mid teens...

    I made all his happy/angry clouds, cold etc. The fronts were hard to make and cut out, then I played weather lol

    I was always a big fan of the angry clouds. It meant there will be something going on. And when you saw multiple angry clouds on his super generic map...oh yeah. But the best was an angry cloud off the carolina coast and a happy ass cloud in the prime position to the north...the party is on!

    Appropriately named! Reminded me of many years ago, playing ice hockey on frozen ponds and having a bottle of Cold Duck stuck in the snow for refreshment...ah yes, lol.

    Damn, Cold Duck...haven't heard that in a while.

    Back during the snowstorms of the 70s my neighbor would put several 16oz cans of Piels in the snow before shoveling. Back then being 8yrs old or so I thought, "what the hell is he doing?". Now I know EXACTLY what he was doing!!!

    Updated snow pile pic, it's not a lot higher (6.5 ft.), but it's becoming more massive.

    We're getting good at this, 1st time with everything all cleaned up and a kettle fire for a reward, all in the same day!

    Nice to see your snow pile is growing. The sleet/frz rain Sat night will be the perfect jacket for longevity .

    And along with your kettle fire you should add Ketel one. You don't even need a freezer for ice cold vodka, just jam it in the snow. Good times...

    33" on the nose here in Ivyland.

    You, I and JTA66 in Lansdale will be pretty much similar in totals. If someone asked me since I don't keep "exact" amounts....I would have said 27 - 30". That damn snow drought from 12/16 till end of Jan really screwed things up in my mind from a solid classic winter...

    29F/overcast

    Speaking of snow mounds, the most epic Kamu snowpile exists in the Modell's/Shoprite lot on Street Rd in Warminster. Easily 15 feet high and 25 feet long. It looks like they took most of the snow in that huge lot and just piled into one huge mountain. That will be there til May easily.

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I took/take my father to that Shoprite occasionally after a storm and they do make a huge snow pile....

    26F / cloudy / Approx 2-2.5"

    Nice - enjoy!

    When I lived along Rt422 (Phoenixville, Royersford, Limerick) deer were everywhere. I hit one. I don't mind them being mellow in the backyard but when they bolt across a highway when I'm doing 65-70mph...screw that!

    Steady light snow / 27F

    Just measured an inch, deer are out in the yard, beautiful outside! I'm leaning lower here based on the radar, thinking 2", open to more of course!

    Believe or not I see more fox around here than deer. They're super mellow and just go about their business. I was on the North Wales facebook community page and people said the same w/pictures.

    Taking a Jebwalk to Wawa shortly for a coffee and to be outside. Nothing like big snow mounds around you, peaceful in the middle of the night while it's snowing....

    28F / light snow

    It's at least moderate here, but the radar to the west is now looking a little less inspiring than it was.

    The best I had so far was a "steady" light snow. The flakes were consistent but so damn small!

    Overall happy, everything has whitened up and I'm expecting 2" or so....

    Flakes getting a bit larger here in NW Chesco temp down to 28.4 - will measure at midnight but a solid coating so far

     

    It's real easy to get flakes larger than an atom from an hour ago. Damn, they were small. A littler larger here as well but not ground breaking.

    Roads covered, this event is the definition of a refresher...28F here as well.

    I don't think we'll ever hit mod intensity and forget about heavy....

    I'm going to the Joseph Ambler Inn on Saturday into Sunday with my fiancee. Very nice place.

    Nice! Never been there but heard good things....only a couple miles from here.

    Expect some snow/sleet and don''t be a weenie, pay attention to your fiancee and not weather models and radars...
