    Last winter F, this winter C, maybe next winter jumps to A. If this event turns out and we still have a period of winter left, maybe can give this winter a B.

    Bad, but boy last winter had only one good quality - the arctic snap around Christmas. Even a bad winter is a relief after that.

    Let’s hope it leads the way for once.

    If the models are right the next week or maybe two weeks should be the last of our chances. Would be a nice little event.

    Anyone think it might take longer than modeled since pattern changes are often delayed?

    I will say he has a lot of weather knowledge. I used to think he just wanted to put down snow lovers, but lately he has been showing more that he does want us to enjoy our snow. He can just be uncomfortably honest.

    It actually did look like 6 inches this time before any melting. Got to enjoy the snow and still get out later.

    Winter storm warning now for 3-6. With the elevation here probably won’t be at the top end but looking like a good storm.
  9. mattinpa
    No worries - could happen to anyone

    I am now at 3-5 inches forecasted. We’ll see if that changes later. Given temps, they are right to be careful IMO.
  11. mattinpa
    Agree - also, people in the Philly suburbs weren’t expecting much of anything and may be surprised.

    Have a winter weather advisory for 2-4 inches. May go a bit higher based on new data. Hope the LV gets those high totals.
  13. mattinpa
    Yes does it seem odd to you that those later threats would be suppressed? Doesn’t seem like that kind of winter.
  14. mattinpa
    Keeping expectations in check but 2-4”+ for many seems reasonable depending on how cold it can get. Ratios are the thing to watch.
  15. mattinpa
    You are right. I would take another storm like that though my location always seems to get the lower end. The low elevation does not help.
  16. mattinpa
    Yep. Wish we could lock that in. While I still love snow I am a decent bit older than when I started on this board and more cautious about getting excited.

    Thanks MJO - good run for PHL-NYC but still little room for north swings.
  18. mattinpa
    Yes it is in that favorable pattern, and we are weather people, so why not track? A phase would have made that a better solution. Just keep an eye on it.
  19. mattinpa
    Heavy snow would lead to good ratios but 10-1 might be on the high side. Interested again though.
  20. mattinpa
    Monday’s always been a bonus. Need a lot to go exactly right. But very encouraging that the good pattern and storm threats are staying on the models.

    In the meantime it is at least nice to see the sun. I thought I had moved to Seattle, lol.
  22. mattinpa
    Yeah I live near Pope John Paul II high school in Upper Providence Township. Only a couple miles from Royersford proper. To me it didn’t look much more than the 4 inches you got.
  23. mattinpa
    I hope it lives up to it. The fact we got some real winter in January makes me feel more positive. A 6+ inch storm would make this winter a worthy one IMO. I know Royersford recorded 6 inches during the last storm but it didn’t look like that much where I am in Upper Providence. Though I didn’t measure due to the ice that was all over my driveway.
  24. mattinpa
    I am pretty freaked out by that 80. I know there is climate change, but wow!
  25. mattinpa
    I think this is a really good take, Don. We should at least get some favorable periods in February. But winter lovers have to wait out long stretches of mild a lot nowadays. Even in the heart of winter.
