clarks green snow

6" up here in Waverly/Clarks Summit with schools closed. I am up at 1500' but seeing most towns in the hills at 3-5".

BGM The latest 12z NAM model guidance is just coming in, and is certainly still on board for heavy wet snow potential later tonight within and near the current winter storm watch area. A quick look indicates it is trending stronger with the coastal low and a bit colder, with more dynamic cooling and heavier precipitation (snow) within a deformation band along the I-81 corridor and points east....lingering into Friday morning. Will wait to see the rest of the 12z guidance before making any changes to the current winter weather headlines. These trends make sense as the coastal system is already looking very well defined, with a baroclinic leaf and developing comma head on the latest GOES-E hi-resolution 10.35um infrared satellite loop. Another shortwave which will add energy to the system is evident over Central Indiana at this time, and the final piece of energy will rush in from southern Canada on Friday to further strengthen the system over New England. This is a complex weather system, with the potential to produce large amounts of precipitation (and snow) across our area. This is the only reason I don't go postal when you guys South and Easy of me get the coastal storms while we smoke cirrus up here in Clarks Summit! Love the October/November and March/April elevation events.
