Model bounce has begun Euro up big runs tonight! I’ll say 3-4” or do max 5” isolated areas.

Way way north of other models cha cha cha lol

Coating made it all the way to Media 9-9:30 am.

All rain here high today 39f picked up 0.27" of rain. Currently 35f with a 34f dew point. After today's storm I am officially very interested in what the Euro is selling for us on Saturday Night into Sunday.

Wait what happened to my foot of sleet!!!??? Damn!!

No because the Sunday system is needed to bring the cold and set up the baroclinic zone for coastal storm development.

That’s exactly how we roll in a normal winter. Clipper light 1-3” event followed by coastal storm development 4” or more!

So 23 years ago 2002? Interesting tibit then let’s see what happens? I can see it happening for sure! The available data indicates that 1.1 inches of snow fell on Christmas Day 2002. More specifically regarding December 2002: On December 5th, 0.44 inches of precipitation was recorded during a heavy snow event. Around the Christmas holiday, Philadelphia experienced a total of 1.4 inches of new snow accumulation, with the snow changing to rain at times.

Partly sunny 36f like Shazam any ice snow gone!!! Like it was a dream! Steam rising from roof tops and cars. 0.02” of snow and 0.01” of freezing rain / drizzle VICTORY!!! And it’s only December 6th what can go wrong.

Damm warm tongue of air off the Atlantic it’s back!!!

Here's to Ralph!! Yes 250 more of these events. Currently cloudy 29f humidity 63% dewpoint 19f light NNE winds very light snow car topper in progress barely 0.01" of snow today now we are on the board after a trace last weekend. Total snowfall this year 0.01"

Clearly someone that is bored with dry and cold and near misses to the north and south and needs something to talk about before his rating base leaves him from boredom and enjoys the Holidays without snow! Welcome to La Nina Winter! Nothing is really exciting me but at least we have the first ingredient running around the cold. Guess we better start stirring up the southern jet stream soon if the northern dominant stream allows it.

Community Come on now we know this is coming north! It’s been a while look a cold high up north and the cold air daming wedge is in place! Hello old friend! Let’s go!!! I like December 5th and 9th especially the 9th.

wow look at that we actually have a cold high up north I am intrigued now / cold air daming too been a while since we have seen the wedge!

Yea we suck! Welcome to the Winter of 2025-2026 off to a Great Start! At least drought guy is happy about this quick hitter like shazam and outta here! I mean 10" of snow today in 9 hours would have been awesome!

Drizzle chilly north wind 36f humidity 99% dew point 36f Picked up a trace of sleet three snowflakes and 1.00" of rain on the button. We had more snow here Sunday morning LOL The way I see it we just missed out on 10" of snow. We just could not hold onto the high that slipped away to the east it's a common theme! Please stop! Another common theme is the always present low pressure over the Great Lakes Please stop!! Oh well onto the next. So, is that 978mb storm off the East Coast on the 12z GFS anything to get excited about on December 9th at 6z? or is this like the Phantom Hurricane that was in the Gulf on December 8th on the GFS from last week?

28f dewpoint 15f Media, PA Delaware County Clear.

Clear 30f dew point 15f

It was nice while it lasted 36f light rain that was quick dam south winds.

36f Dewpoint 27 light snow This was NOT on my bingo card today!

This idea of the cold not being locked in and the high moving east was the theme of the winter last few years so nothing has really changed for this year yet outside of below normal temperatures right now.

Yea light rain here followed by a squall line and outta here a bit dramatic.

I think from where we have been 6z GFS was almost "Folks"!!

Here we go suppression vs snow and rain classic. I do not think in this set up suppression will be a thing looks progressive up the coast.
