I went with 2-4” for the Lehigh Valley on my page. Not buying the GFS (which stubbornly held serve at 0z), it’s always lost in the short to medium range and doesn’t catch on until the day before.
Drizzle here as the main slug of precip exits. Looks like we got about 1/2” of snow. I expected a grassy dusting at most so I’m happy with the slight overperformance. Now let’s hope Saturday night-Sunday becomes a nice plowable event.
Same in Allentown now. This is overperforming a little bit. Steady snow which is sticking to the grass and my car. Looks like the R/S line is way south of here too with a snow report near Boyertown. I love these little surprise events.
I live essentially right on I-78, I can hear it from my place. It's currently a rain/snow mix. Not sticking and I doubt it will. Still nice to see something other than rain.
Saturday night into Sunday is still looking halfway decent for a ground whitener and possibly a plowable event. Models are starting to converge on at least some snow.
12z mesos coming in colder for tomorrow. Doesn’t really matter for Philly but for the LV/Poconos, one more tick colder and we could end up with a decent little surprise event.
Next Thurs-Fri is looking a little bit interesting. Doesn’t look like anything big but if the clipper takes the right track we could get a 2-4” or 3-6” event.
Some of the 0z mesos form scattered snow showers away from the main area of precip with the low sliding to our south. I wouldn’t be surprised to see some coatings around the area tomorrow evening.
And even if the Friday and Tuesday storms miss we have a parade of clippers to look forward to for the next two weeks. Pretty active pattern for this time of year.
Steady snow in Allentown. Coating on the ground so far. A bit concerned about a changeover happening earlier than expected looking at radar…we should at least get an inch, maybe two before that happens though.
