  1. I didn't even notice they cut our amount down from 6-9 inches to up to 6 inches in the latest winter storm warning update. i had a feeling. was going to mention it yesterday but didn't want to drag down peoples excitement. kinda annoying every time we get to the final run with these storms it ends up being less. 6in is still decent. there's always a chance we could overperform especially since where it sets up is pretty crucial but keeping my expectations in check
  2. i've been thinking the harrisburg area gets way less since that's just how the patterns been the past few weeks. we've ended up with way less snow/ice/sleet than modeled or forecast each time lol so wouldnt surprise me if this happens again and we get way less than the 6-9 inches called for. really sucks that none of these storms have been overachievers here
  3. freezing rain here currently. though i hear a lot of water running off the house so i dont think its freezing up very well
  4. i probably should have posted his tweet he had for this. apparently he's using a algorithm that more accurately predicts how much ice will fall compared to what the models are actually showing so what i posted is actually the lower end of what the hrrr was showing. i do agree ice is really hard to forecast and we always usually get much less
  5. i actually like his map. the 1-2 inch area is what i was thinking. don't think that area gets anymore than that
  6. yeah these last 2 days have been so nice in the sun. i felt like i could go out in a tshirt lol
  7. Everyone's been on edge and worn out due to the pandemic so I could definitely see things get heated in some areas. As much as I'd love to see this much snow I'd rather people maintain their sanity lol
  8. im pretty young but i cant remember any snowstorm lasting as long as this one ever has. definitely has to be a record of some sort
  9. There's been no snow on the radar for 2 hours now but it's still snowing lol and yeah i made sure to check that it wasn't because of all the blowing snow. I don't remember ever seeing this. It's not like flurries but like a steady light snow
  10. Same thing here in Enola...we're right on the edge of the dry slot but it's still snowing at a pretty decent clip for the past few hours now
  11. Yeah I'm having a hard time seeing us get any heavy snows the rest of the day either. Hope I'm wrong though
  12. Yeah I came into this storm at 6-12. Looks like we're gonna get that. It's easy to see the crazy amounts the models put out and then your hype get deflated when they get close to nothing like that. Decembers storm taught me a lesson lol but that's because I was excited since it hadn't snowed in 2 years
  13. Really hoping we perform well with this. Got burnt with the december storm with them calling 18+ inches here and we only got 8. It feels like it's happening all over again...maybe it'll do the reverse this time or maybe I'm being pessimistic lol either way having it snow for this long a duration is exciting though
  14. That's why I kept my expectations in check for this storm. They're calling 6-10 inches here now. Hilarious when you see bigger places calling 12-18in lmao in the morning they bumped up totals to 10-14 but then later today 6-10
  15. I've been trying to stay off the hype train for this storm since I was burnt by decembers storm when they called 18-20 inches here and we only got 8. It was still nice but I'm very hesitant buying into any of the really high totals yet. Hoping euro still holds steady. My expectations right now is maybe a foot of snow at most. Anything more than that and it's a plus
  16. Crazy video. they haven't had a snowstorm this big in 50 years. i always forget places like that don't have systems in place to handle such a heavy and huge amount of snow so the city basically becomes paralyzed. Good luck getting to a hospital or anywhere in that lol
  17. The warning at the top of the site is pretty cute But yeah this winter is looking pretty exciting snow wise. Especially after that record setting low snow year beforehand. Being above average this early on is looking good.
  18. those couple hours of sleet really cut numbers but finally the sleet is gone and there's some huge flakes out there now
  19. im surprised at how cold the temps are holding at some places. models kept showing it warming up gradually. by now it should have been 29 degrees but its still 25 degrees
  20. i'd be fine with a foot of snow even if it doesn't hit us as hard. harrisburg hasn't had a storm in december that was bigger than 13.9 inches since its very tough to get a big storm like this this early in the season. most of the big stuff always happens in january and february
  21. still blowing my mind we're going to get something this big in mid december
  22. that would easily crush the 13.9 inch record for december in harrisburg. geez
  23. uh oh for some reason i forgot all about dry slotting goddamnit lol
