Don’t look at the 0z gfs then.

This storm was amazing in NE Philadelphia where I lived Tabor Road and Adams Avenue off of Roosevelt Blvd picked up 22.7" with 8 foot drifts in the driveways between our row homes. Yes, I was out in it loving it when I was 9 years old. I remember being out when the lightning flashed and heard the low rumble of thunder with 2-4" snowfall rates an hour complete with grauple. There were multiple flashes of lightning and thunder during that storm very dynamic. My trusted weather forecasters this night was Jim O'Brien and Herb Clark. 1983 was a sad year as this storm would be the last big one that Jim would cover!! God Bless Jim O'Brien and his family he no doubt fueled my love and passion for the weather! Jim Obrien's Crusin forecast - YouTube

Wow so the Blizzard of 83 was only a 1004 mb low??? With all that dynamics.

Media Delaware County Total 24.6"

now very light snow in Media 32

Well gotta check since we live along the Baltimore Pike Corridor: Nothing yet here in Media Delaware County Cloudy 32 humidity humidity 61% dew point 22 very light east wind.

No Way!! Gotta be Sleet!

I am from the northern Mid-Atlantic about 7 miles north of the PA/MD/DEL line but what I am seeing is the models bouncing a bit due to the boundary that the storm is going to ride along including a bit of push from the cold up north (confluence). Now I am in here often because the knowledgeable posters are awesome!! At some point though with the deep cold on the northern edges we are going to have to start talking about snow ratios. It has been mentioned a few times but up here on the border southern PA I am hoping for the .35 liquid with 18-22 degree temp to produce my 4-6" of snow+. I do have a feeling though that the end games bring things north it's been happening all year now. We shall see.

Here is your elevation report at the airport at 1:03 pm reported 0.7" so far meanwhile 10 miles away you got 5" go another 10 miles and you are sitting at 10". Upper Darby Delaware County 0.8 Media, 5.6 I am sure you go out to Newtown Square and they are sitting 7-10" Urban heat island effect.

I am looking at posted pictures from Southern Delaware County over towards the airport only have like coating to 1" on the grass the official report from the airport should be interesting coming up on 5" here in Media definitely got to my level of expectation probably end up with 5.0-5.7" or so. Literally 2 miles away has like less than 2" elevation huge factor. I sit at 345 feet the magic number is 400Feet ;plus gets 8-10" where the banding set up.

Heavy just began here too Kamu! Media just east of Granite Run the Baltimore Pike Corridor LOL

Umm coming up on 4" here in Media Delaware County my expectation was 5.2" so it's not too far off. Elevation is playing a role with this and the fact that temps are 33 now every hour here its been snowing. Down in Ridley along the Delaware River I bet they haven less than you do out in Chester Heights. Now with that said even here in Media paved surfaces are like 1.5-2" of snow but the grass area and old snow are at or just past 4" heavy band from Wilmington Delaware has Arrived and more coming up from the Southwest and west. Think our totals here in the center of the County to about Newtown Square will likely fall 4-6" especially places like Newtown Square and Radnor highest elevations of Delaware County. Liken this to an early March storm where it was warm past two days with marginal temps at the surface. Banding also plays a huge role!

Wow though 6.5" what were you expecting out there. This storm did come further North and west. Elevation here in Media sitting at 315 feet so think that hurts a bit we have like 3.5" I can imagine right along the Delaware River less.

Looks like this will be going for a bit wow that's quite a band on the west sides of Baltimore and Washington DC moving NE.

Looks like just along 95 north west sitting pretty good right now rain issues coast to about 35-40 miles inland for now.

Yep no doubt. looks like 34 and rain in Hammonton just 28 miles inland along the expressway. Looks like the rain snow line is straddling the 55 Corridor on the way to the shore there.

Some of that is Rain. Mullica Hill just switched over to snow right now. So southeast of 55 its all rain still. I am sure it is doing the work in cooling the column quickly though and all will switch over to snow.

Media Delaware County 33 heavy snow all surfaces caving fast flakes are huge here too.

Last minute cover in case snow rates are light and snow melts where it counts on paved surfaces

Media Delaware County Partly cloudy 37 Dewpoint 24 my expectation is 5.3”

Very windy here in Media gusts were just shaking the house 35-40 at times SW winds too there’s your Jet.

Classic placement 95 NW that’s where I thought it would be yesterday and last night with the best lift.

There’s our lift centered on the higher elevations of Chester and Delaware Counties in the purple areas.
