Yeah, and same for Cleveland I think too. This also isn’t a short term thing..it’s been years like this. I will cut some slack though as NWS Mets are often badly under paid.

Honestly read ours, then read state college’s. The difference is honestly kind of pathetic.

I didn’t look today. They have more than 10 sentences focused on this event? edit: just looked and very underwhelming. Only focused on southern areas, barely, and didn’t talk about the metro area at all.

What I like about this map, at least my way, is that we are going to be more like 15:1 ratios I’d imagine…so 2.8 based in .28 liquid is much closer to 4

I don’t know if I’d say conservative but they are SUPER slow to adjust forecasts IMO. The January of 2019 storm is an amazing example.

Hmm..thinking it might be time to throw up an advisory. Short term models all showing 3-4 pretty generally now.

Nothing can top that. Under a WSW the morning of, and it was raining. We all knew like 24 hours out w e were screwed but NWS took forever to adjust.

Yep, and see my edit. It really is amazing how ideal things seem to have to be to get big storms here, even competitively to places only 50-100 miles from us. I’m sure Morgantown, Youngstown, Altoona, etc have all had more big storms than us the last decade.

Lol. What was the storm a few years ago where union town got like 18 inches, and even southern AGC got nearly 10 inches but the city north barely managed 5? We kept saying it had to tick north and it didn’t. It seems that we always are stuck either 50-100 miles too far north or south. What was really amazing is that until last December we hadn’t had a 10 inch storm in like 10 years and even a 6 inch storm in a long time but if you drive 50 miles in any direction they all had large storms.

I guess this is our payback for our first big storm and great December last year. That has been holding me over a bit at least. That said there haven’t even been many things to track, though I almost prefer that to the storms that we get 24-48 hours out, show 6-10 inches, then we either rain or get slop.

Seems to be all snow to me here in Ross

Pitt game tonight....weather gods were on Pitt side as that narrow band of extremely heavy rain and wind rolled through right during UNC's OT possession.

?

This time of year? I wouldn’t be shocked if it was one of the most significant outbreaks since 85. We had an ef2 which was borderline ef3 which is almost unheard of here. also, how was the ball so horribly dropped on a watch?

Didn’t we get three feet of snow around thanksgiving that year?

Confirmed tornado near mt nebo and in Hampton. Rough go this year in Hampton as that’s the same area where there was a microburst that likely had 80-100 mph winds earlier this year on wildwood CC.

100% sounds like there was a tornado in the north hills, only a few miles from me which is disconcerting

Damn. I’m listening to north Allegheny county fire scanner and reports of roofs missing in Allison park. That’s way too damn close

Also omg is weather Twitter idiotic. A bunch of morons screaming “omg strong tornado on the ground in Allison park!!!”

Looking on Twitter at pictures of some of the velocity radar shots there was very likely a spin up somewhere in mccandless tracking into Allison park. Just would have missed me.

I’m in Ross near northway mall. Windy but nothing unusual

Small pea sized hail in those showers. Love fall weather!

Finally, fall is here.

Is it just me or are fall LES events more and more rare recently?

Question…not to start a political debate but could climate change impact models being able to sniff out long term pattern changes since part of modeling will be based on historical norms that maybe no longer apply? I mean just anecdotally, but I remember growing up October days in the 40’s and some snow flakes weren’t all that rare and I remember multiple times in November we would see either clippers/LES drop an inch or two of snow in my area. These things seem almost non existent the last 5-10 years and I honestly can’t remember the last Alberta clipper we had.
