Low of 34 this am. With another frost/freeze possible Saturday night up here. I had .60" of rain with the Wed rainfall. Looks like another .25 possible tonight. There is no drought conditions in my location, but just to my east is in moderate conditions. So we absolutely need more rain. Especially as we head into summer. I know a lot of folks are hating this pattern. I for one, am loving it! This time of year, these temps aren't brutal where you can't handle it. 5 to 15 degrees below average; is manageable when the average high is near 70 for most locations. Im all for holding off those extreme summer temps as long as possible. The inevitable death ridges will be upon us soon enough, for months on end. Then we will be begging for relief. :). -

Finally out of the drought here in my part of the Poconos. Received about .50" of rain last night with the front. Hopeful the rest of Pa can continue beating away at the drought conditions in coming weeks. -

Low of 7 here in my part of the Poconos. While I wouldn't mind another late season or two snow event. I'm over this kind of cold. I still have a solid 7 to 8 inch deep snowpack in my area. Looking forward to rain washing all the salt residue away honestly. -

5" in the Poconos from that blizzard warning I was under, that had virtually no winds LOL. And 1.5" of non forecasted lake effect at my place this am lol. -
Well that was a let down here in the Poconos lol. Binghamton NWS had me under a blizzard warning for 7 to 16" inches, and 45mph winds. Winds were pathetic here above 2k, and maybe 5.0" total lol. Very light snow continues but its a wrap. I can't complain though, im right right around 60.0" ytd so it has been a good season.

Binghamton Nws just issued a blizzard warning for my area. I believe this is the first time since the big March 2017 storm. All in all, not impressed with snow amounts with the huge shuffle east. I guess we will see what happens. -

Woke up to a surprise 2.5" inches here in my part of the Poconos. Areas just 20 to 30 miles north of me, absolutely nothing. Sharp cutoff and nice surprise! Had to wake up early to shovel and clean up before work. -

I'm all for being positive, and we should keep a watchful eye given how horrible these models have been. However, with that said.... I think this one is a goner lol. Sometimes you flush, some times ya bust... We will have plenty of opportunties ahead. We have a great snow pack, and a great long lasting cold pattern here. Something else interesting will pop soon! This is the first time in many seasons, avg snowfall or above looks to be easily within reach for many. We still have Feb and March for plenty of chances. This turned into a great winter and im very pleased. -

Honestly, at around 5 days out, this is a good look. That is one powerhouse being shown. I'm sure some wild solutions are to come on these models. Great trends today. -
You must be real close to Narrowsburg Ny? I have a buddy who lives in Beach Lake. He just called and said the drifts were real bad in that area. I'm just south of Hamlin Pa, on the very northern edge of the Pocono Plateau close to 84.

Picked up a general 1 to 2 inches after the last obs that I posted last night. Measuring this was a nightmare with the wind. I'll call it 15.0" total all said and done. Seeing two 20.0" reports just to my east near Lake Wallenpaupack. I guess it's possible. Great storm!
