  1. PA is in the sweet spot for this. The blocking will shear out the system but not before it drops a bunch of snow somewhere in the state. It's a really tricky forecast, though, since the band of heavy snow will be so narrow. We won't know where the jackpot zone will be till like 6 hours before this thing actually gets to eastern PA.
  2. Lehigh Valley just got NAM'd. It just printed out 4-8" for the ABE area tomorrow night.
  3. Yeah I think we see another inch or so. Which would still be our biggest snowfall of the season.
  4. Sleet has been mixing in here in Allentown but it never fully transitioned away from snow. Now that the next round of precip is moving in it’s becoming predominantly snow again. Huge flakes.
  5. About an inch so far in Allentown. Round 1 looks like it’s about to end but the radar is improving slightly in central PA.
  6. The stuff in western and central PA looks good though. As long as the mid levels don’t torch that will bring us to our predicted totals.
  7. Can’t really see 5-8” for the LV…there’s plenty of cold air but the radar just doesn’t look good enough. I do think we see a plowable 2-4” though. Maybe up to 5” in spots. Just started snowing in Allentown. Gonna be a fun evening here.
  8. Decent storm signal on the Euro ensembles for late next week. I’m really optimistic about this one because I’ll be in California next Thursday-Sunday so if a storm happens I won’t get to experience it at all.
  9. Just started snowing in Allentown. 42F. Mid to low levels must be pretty cold if it’s over 40 with snow falling.
  10. FWIW it looks like this system is colder than modeled already in NW PA. Lots of sleet reports from Erie down to I-80 when every model had rain there at this time.
  11. Friday is looking worse by the hour…looks like tonight is our best hope here in the LV. Haven’t had an event over 2” all season, will tonight’s system finally be the one to pass that mark?
  12. Love how tomorrow night is trending colder. I just made my first call on my page, 1-3” for the Lehigh Valley…I might have to increase that a little bit if these trends continue! Also starting to get mildly excited about Friday even though I’m scheduled (for now) to drive to and from Princeton that day.
  13. I see sleet reports as far south as Delaware and the Jersey Shore. Looks like the cold air was under-modeled.
  14. That is one nasty cell crossing into NJ right now. Even has a little hook on it.
  15. A bit of thunder here in Allentown. We’ve had more claps of thunder today than inches of snow this year.
  16. Heavy snow in Allentown. Sticking to everything. Warmer models have already busted.
  17. Snow has begun in Allentown. Looks like the R/S line is a good bit farther south than modeled so far.
  18. Driving to the PHL airport from Allentown at around 3-4 pm today. Hopefully it’s not too bad. Would have loved for this storm to come at literally any other time…
  19. Moderate snow in Allentown. Starting to stick to roofs and grassy surfaces.
  20. This winter is just absolutely brutal so far. It’s gotten to the point where all I want is a 2-3” event that stays all snow. Is that really too much to ask?
  21. 12z ICON starts off this afternoon’s model suite with a bang.
  22. 12z models have trended towards a secondary low developing on the tail end of the trough. The Euro is by far the most aggressive and the CMC and UKMET show a little bit of promise, while the GFS keeps everything well to the north. Not overly enthused about this chance but it’s something to keep an eye on.
  23. Currently some light to moderate snow in Bethlehem. Sticking to everything. The flakes are so fine it’s not even showing up on the radar.
  24. Moderate wind-blown snow in Allentown. Sticking to grass. Can we get over an inch?
  25. There’s the changeover in Allentown. Light snow with very strong winds gusting to 30-40… looks like we have 2-3 hours of this before it stops.
