  1. First decent storm of the year in Allentown. Gusty winds with some thunder and lightning. Hoping to see much more of this as the year goes on!
  2. Uh…was there just an earthquake? Anyone else feel that?
  3. 0z models are faster with the wave of clouds and light rain. Good news for people like me who want to go to Ohio, since there’s a better chance there will be clearer skies by the time totality happens. Bad news for anyone planning to go to New York unless you stay near I-87.
  4. Mixed rain and graupel near Allentown. I even heard a rumble of thunder. Does that count as thundersnow?
  5. If I do take the New England route I’ll be booking a hotel in Albany on Sunday night, where there are still plenty of rooms available. From what I’m seeing, clear skies are likely east of Lake Ontario.
  6. Was really hoping Ohio would be the best place for this as I have family there. But recent forecasts don’t seem very good. Looks like upstate NY could be the play for me. Gonna wait a day or two then make my plans.
  7. Anyone traveling for the eclipse next week? I plan on going to northeast Ohio and staying with some family, with upstate NY as a plan B.
  8. I plan on traveling to northeast Ohio for the eclipse as long as rain isn’t in the forecast for that day. I have a family member who lives in a Cleveland suburb who’s letting me stay at her place if I want to. Really hoping for clear skies - I’ll even settle for partly cloudy.
  9. Well this isn’t good. Luckily all we have coming in the near future is some light to moderate rain events.
  10. The moon is extremely bright tonight. I noticed it casting a very prominent shadow on the trees in my yard.
  11. Just had a really gusty shower pass through Allentown. It was almost like a thunderstorm, but without thunder and lightning.
  12. Getting some snow flurries in western Lehigh County right now.
  13. Already seeing some trees blooming here. I can't remember seeing that this early. Usually it doesn't happen till early April.
  14. Just had a nice little graupel shower in southern Lehigh County. Some snow pellets are dusting the ground…will probably melt in the next few minutes though.
  15. Slept through the thunderstorms last night so I was hoping the squall line would give me something exciting. Unfortunately it was just okay. Nothing special.
  16. Anyone see the 6z GFS? Euro came pretty close at 0z too.
  17. Around 3” in Philly near the airport. Really wish I could have been at home for this one. Looks like my house straddled the northern edge of that death band.
  18. The NAM pulled this same crap right before the last storm, cutting way back on totals right before the storm starts. Not sure I’m buying it, especially with the radar looking good.
  19. Figures that this would happen…I’m in Philly for the weekend.
  20. 18z NAM came well north of 12z. Looks like the Euro.
  21. If the NAM and GFS come north at 18z it’s time to start getting excited! I’d take another 4-5” in a heartbeat.
  22. Some of the GEFS members say Friday night-Saturday could be significant. Ceiling is high-ish with this one but we need a lot to go right. Most likely scenario still seems to be a widespread 1-3”/2-4” event.
  23. 0z RGEM looking decent for Friday night into Saturday with a region-wide 2-3”.
  24. It is actually comical how far off yesterday’s 12z Euro was. Many of the areas in the 2-4” zone got a foot. And most of south Jersey away from Philly got shut out or close to it.
