E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2025-26 Obs/Discussion
KamuSnow replied to LVblizzard's topic in Philadelphia Region
Tried the longer sled today and we got a couple of decent rides! The rope tow wasn't working or we would have done more. Glad we got out and enjoyed the snow that way. Need some spiked gloves for better steering. 15°F currently. -

I think the emergency delivery guys know how to do it, happened to us when we first moved here, and the driver took care of it. @Ralph Wiggum -

Good job with the shovel, thanks! No kettle fire tonight, lol. -

Invigorating, lol. Only running here was the cat wanting to go outside and then running back in, lol. Eta - it was awesome! -

Don't know that I would have expected this radar to yield this snow intensity, but it sure did! Nice! 19F and dropping. -

Light snow of varying rates and flake size has just about ended here. Lots of sparkly flakes while it was snowing. Enough for a coating, just shy of 0.3" total, very enjoyable being outside with the kettle fire. 26F currently. Skeptical about anything later but you never know! -

Had some light snow here, was coming down enough to make a thin dusting. Lighter now. Kettle fire tonight!!! -

Probably after that 6" sleetfest. Sledding was amazing for that, stopping was interesting! -

Lol, thanks for the pro tip! Don't have a toboggan but we have a longer plastic sled I'm gonna try. Also have a couple of the old American Flyers with the metal runners I could sand down and wax up, but I don't think I'd get too far with those. I'm 6'4 and 220 lbs, lol. -

I'm ready for some fresh powder to blow around, but imagine this cold spell with bare ground or a dusting, no thanks. This has been awesome, even exceptional. Hoping for at least one more significant snow, ideally while some of what we have is still on the ground. I am enjoying this winter! I did try sledding earlier, and I either need to lose some weight or get a bigger sled, the sleet layer was settling underneath the sled and slowing me down. If I got up to speed faster it might work. Fun stuff, lol. 23F currently. -

A few flakes of snow here, 29°F. Made it to 35 here today, but didn't really lose any snowpack. We discussed taking a shot at sledding on the sleet pack later this week, lol. -
January 25-26 Winter Storm Potential
KamuSnow replied to Ralph Wiggum's topic in Philadelphia Region
Wound up with 9.0" here, 6.3" of snow and 2.7" of sleet. No liquid during the day, I was out in it. Must have had some freezing drizzle on the tail end, the sleet surface was locked together today. What an awesome storm, all snow would have been nice, but the sleet worked out just fine. Snowpile is happy! Plus there are a bunch of extra piles due to the volume. Now this week feels like about as heart of winter as it gets around here, between the snowpack and the cold. This winter is no slacker! -

Speaking of '96, I woke up to heavy snow and 8°F, turned on the trusty weather radio, and we had a blizzard warning! It was a Sunday as well. -

Well that didn't take long, got the sleet, about 90/10 ratio with snow. 15F still. -

Just reached 6" here, still snowing nicely, but expect sleet any minute now. Really hoping we can avoid freezing rain. Currently 15°F. Beautiful day! I'm loving this winter!!! -

KamuSnow replied to Mikeymac5306's topic in Philadelphia Region
Wow, just measured 1.6" additional since the last measurement, makes 3.5" for the day, 5.5" for the weekend. This kind of snuck up on us, lol. I mean the chances were there, but this exceeded expectations for sure. Eta - 14.0" for the season to date. -
