In theory if they get the kids in the roads may be ok by dismissal time. Now that we are here at the start, not sure if the snow is coming in early enough to be an issue for schools.
If it comes late morning into the afternoon they may be right though even mid-day roads will get covered with over 1" an hour rates. If it starts before daybreak and we all get .4 to .6 in qpf it's a plowable storm IMO.
I mentioned this before but all the schools I saw cancel school last week also cancelled virtual. Not sure why. I did not look into schools in Cumberland, Dauphin, York, etc...
Verbatim model reading would make tomorrow one of our top 5-6 snows this Winter I believe. Getting less headlines than I would expect especially with the terrible timing. Potential for some of those "I got stuck on the way to work in a 4 hour traffic jam" stories. Take the LSV. Most models have some jackpotting in the 4-6" range. MDT could potentially get more snow tomorrow than all of last winter.
I have also appreciated the "what's next" results from the last 4 or 5 weeks. Even now as we go into a borderline high wwa situation, next weekend has opened up as a tracking target.
I suspect good rates will lead to dynamic cooling and bring most down under freezing if it happens sometime mid morning or before. Roads will be fine Monday Pm though. A decent haul Monday helps protect the pack a little from the upcoming 50ish temps. :-). Hopefully this one does not go off the rails.
