  1. Usually they downplay it. I thought they would be cautious especially after just a few years ago when they had a accumulation map out with some that were over a foot. And if I remember correctly we ended up in the 2-3 inch range.
  2. I don't think he's a bad forecaster. But he can be nasty at times with people, but sometimes I think some people just like to provoke the bear.
  3. So someone else must have watched his video and read his blog.
  4. Seem to me after all the confusing model runs DT has been bewildered somewhat. So he's not predicting where this will go.
  5. I know there are not many JB fans on here. But he referenced yesterday, last evening that the storm will run from eastern NC., to Millville NJ to JFK.
  6. What time frame are we looking at for precipitation to start in southern Pa. if there is a storm.
  7. I hope so, as a lot of the trees are incased in ice up here. It could lead to problems with 25 mph winds forecast
  8. So much for getting to the forecast high of 37 today still stuck at 32 for 4 hours.
  9. Your probably right on that as the last few years winter has dragged on well into spring.
  10. Lets do this. let us get 3 feet of snow in a short time so we can move on to spring!
  11. We are starting to get a serious ice build up on everything here.
  12. .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... -- Changed Discussion -- *Significant, locally damaging ice threat through the midday hours across much of the Central and North-Central Mtns of PA and the Middle Susq Valley...preceding an Arctic cold snap. Increased QPF and FZRA accums across a large part of the area from KUNV ENE through KIPT and KSEG based on high res guidance, upstream precip rates and an area of enhanced uvvel/cold cloud tops within the thermally direct circulation of a 110 kt jet max extending from Lake Erie northeast across the St. Lawrence Valley. Upstream rainfall rates of 0.10-0.20" of an inch/hour are aimed directly at the region of expected, longest-duration and coldest sfc air entrenched throughout the Valleys of Central PA and the Mid Susq Region. Increased ice accum to around 0.50" on the ridges AOA 1800 ft MSL east of KUNV through the KIPT area into the Endless Mtns, while the Valley locations should easily see 3-4 tenth of an inch of total ice accum. The region near and to the west of the RT 219 corridor will see minimal additional ice accum as temps are rising several deg above freezing across most locations ATTM.
  13. Woke up to ice storm warning! it's an ice rink out there 29 degrees.

  14. Dropped down to 5 right before sunrise. Currently a toasty 19 with sunshine
  15. yes they do. Years ago they were dependable probably one of the best in the nation, originating from Florida. But before I retired the procurement and dispatchers were reluctant on getting them as a carrier as they fell from elite status. always late not in hours, but days!
