Significant retreat of the  "polar vortex" cold that was being shown for next week a couple days ago to normal cold, no complaints.

 

This is probably due to your age. I'll send you to my parents house w/the thermostat on 80, electric heater humming and electric blankets a must at all times.  

Much complaints here, wanted highs in the teens/wind! Predicted highs are now up 8-10+ degrees from a couple days ago. Still cold but not super cold.

I thought Glenn should seek a retirement community when 11am Monday he said snow could still be falling till mid-day Wed. Welp, here we are and it is still snowing although not sticking to anything. But just the idea that it would last this long is kinda crazy...and it has. 

Partly sunny w/mod snow / 32F

Steady light snow 27F...roads covered once again as the low swings outta here.

Still some flakes in the air in Allentown...over 55 hours after the first flakes! Unbelievable duration with this storm.

You may get a little more than flurries soon w/the low off the coast spinning so precip moving N to S in your direction...

Getting a marathon pimp slapping up in Poconos  around Jack Frost/Big Boulder.

52 straight hours of snow, still snowing .  Wrap around banding  continues to  hound  the area  from the NE.

The heavy snow bands  didnt make it this far north but  a consistent 1/2" hour rate for 2 + days. 

Closing in on 2 feet. 

Nothing wrong with your post but if you're going with a Pink Floyd reference as your screen name it's David Gilmour...

34F / flurries

Low that close to the coast and it's easily sleeting probably all the way up to mt Pocono. 

Sleet, 33/rain or nothing? I'll take sleet even though I'll be pissed it's not snow and Monday temps will be winter tundra like for this area w/wind. At least it's not boring weather...

Did the groundhog see his shadow? 

 

The whole point of groundhog day is for old folks to dress up, find a reason to drink in the morning and pull a rodent out of a tree. The result makes no difference. Even Punxsutawney Phil is sick of their song and dance and doesn't want to be disturbed...

Yes. It was supposed to be deposited Jan 4, but went to a closed account. Finally saw it coming but the mail wasn’t there. The only bad thing about this storm. 
 

Seeing yet more sun come through. 35 degrees. 

Man, that sucks. From what I read online the mail method seems to take forever or they screw it up. Hopefully yours comes soon.

35F / stray flurries

Springtown, PA 31.2", highest I've seen so far. I'm sure there are more 30+ which I haven't seen...

Actually saw the sun. The sleet kept this from being historic here, but I am not complaining. Been a long time since I got a foot of snow. Now I just have to hope the mail finally comes today and that my stimulus check is there.

Hasn't poked through here yet but very bright. 

Being 34F and a very shallow cloud cover (w/snow melting), anything that falls today won't make a difference in totals....at least here.

What stimulus...the $600 dollar one from last year?

34F / unproductive/melting light flakes falling

About the same here. Maybe we didn’t get 20+ inches, so what? It’s been snowing/sleeting nonstop for nearly 48 hrs with more to fall. Pretty awesome storm as far as I’m concerned.

Same here. The long duration of sleet kinda sucked but overall a solid storm then chill out w/maybe 1-3" today...   

28F/ light snow w/larger flakes mixing in

Approx 13"-15" here in North Wales from eyeballing.

Really not sure how anyone can give a super accurate accumulation (within tenths) considering it's such a long event, sleet and wind. Snowboard or not...  

28F / light-mod snow

Look I am troubled by this storm.

I am old..41

been hearing the same bs stories for 26 years.

the L moved.

are you effing kiddding me. I had been told expect snow.

I had 17 hours of sleet. Its sleet so hard...people take care of your health..wife just told me screech died.

wife..told me Dustin died...

Sad day.

 

 

Nothing about the guy himself but I couldn't stand Screech...very annoying. Much like the D-bag Urkel character.

Dustin had stage 4 cancer. Probably better off he passed because the rest of his like would have been hell...

28F / mod-hvy snow

Old school friend who lives there measured 21.2" a little bit ago.

Yeah, they're getting nailed up there. Someone (if not many locations) will hit 30"+...

27F / Hvy snow

Glenn coming on in a minute...I'll watch again.

So wait, is this in addition to what we have now?

Btw, the 22F is cool, but more interested in the flake for Sunday. Ens means aren't excited.

He just said "Pt 2 of this storm" and it's at the top of the image. I imagine it's from mid -late morning on. (not sure?)  Didn't elaborate on Sun but his 10 day had flakes for next Wed as well.

The 22F was for Philly, burbs 19F...

27F / Hvy snow

Just now, RedSky said:

Is this a joke?

He meant business...stern look and all!

27F / heavy snow

Glenn 4pm for Pt2 through midday Tues: (Notice the 22F high for next Mon, Philly...damn)

Just now, Ralph Wiggum said:

Just came in from snowblowing the first round. 7.5" so far. 28F. Wind is whipping everything around here. 

I like the way the radar is trending. No dry slot here, mod to heavy for a while. Easily several more hours/inches...happy as hell that sleet is outta here.

Windy hvy snow / 28F
