In the "good old days" snow meant a slowdown in work for people not in the Met Profession but with current technology availability, it is getting hard to find time for snow anymore...a shame.
Now low forms off NJ coast Friday evening...still light to moderate snow over PA (Rgem)...new low may be an issue with the regem figuring out where to place as it is gone one panel later.
HH Rgem rolling in now and like usual the Canadians internet is much better than the US. Maps flying in every 1-3 min. Very similar through 54. Light snow spreads over much of PA in the early hours of Friday on the hour 63 panel. Weak over 1008 Low parked off the Carolinas.
Much of that snow North of Boston is from today. The Friday low gets nowhere NE on the NAM as it drifts out into the open Atlantic. Cannot not seem to get one of these Southern Stream Vorts to time anything with a Northern Vort for a real snow.
Snow spreading into SW PA Friday AM on the HH Nam. Very weak low off the Carolina's coast. As the sun starts to rise to spreads over all of the Southern 4/5 of PA
EC is pretty much a ditto from today for Friday. Weak low to our south hands off to weak coastal and we get 12-24 hours of fairly light snow. 2-4" most of Eastern PA.
It happened when the snow almost stopped. I let some land on my glove to inspect and they were pretty much balls vs. crusty snow. We are quite cold up through 850 so something higher up I guess.
Much of the heavier snow overnight is focused East of me as modeled. I was speaking about the GFS in particular. I did not say most vs. good bit. GFS has me getting another ~2".
18Z GFS on board with Eastern LSV getting the goods tonight. Out this way we have already had a good bit of our snow per the GFS. Sitting at 3/4" here now.
