I did see some darker band in York and north of me. Of course east of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scummyratguy Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Still not a flake in Harrisburg. really surprised to hear that based on state college radar! looks like a nice band maybe just to the west? I definitely believe something is changing in the storm, it looks like the visible circulation center off Jersey has slowed and ALMOST going due north (it has to be my imagination that it is going nnw). looks like the whole area west of where they're getting pounded has picked up in intensity as that change has happened. i'm too rusty on my upper air knowledge to do more snooping around. snowing any harder in columbia yet now that you're under darker blue?

Storm Clouds Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Watch this radar loop: http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/index_loop.php Doesn't it look like the snow is expanding further west and becoming heavier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Could be all virga, but whatever it is it's preventing any snowfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Could be all virga, but whatever it is it's preventing any snowfall. We have some of the best radar echoes so far over us and I'm hesitant to even call what's falling light snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 The gradient of this is, as predicted, insane. These type if storms are fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfox1 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Its picking up a little now , But most models have us in SE Sus valley in the most precip later tonight. So do to get to upset with whats falling now. I'll take the 2-4 and anytihing more is a plus Gee did I say that last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Clouds Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Wow! To my surprise, I turned on my outside lights and noticed the snow coming down at a decent clip and bigger flakes! Can this keep up through the night? If so, I can see us getting 2-3 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Did a bit of scanning of the PennDOT webcams. Didn't see anything too noteworthy around Harrisburg or Gettysburg. Lancaster appears to be seeing some steadier snowfall and looks to have some light accums on the ground and a bit on the roadways. Beginning to think that CTP will likely need to trim/edit headlines back eastward some later this eve. Both the 12z and new 18z WRF simulated radar barely had the back edge to Harrisburg and I just don't see any good press from the heavier bands once one gets west of Philly too far. Since the storm now looks to be continuing on its way steadily up the coast vs stalling/occluding at this point, there probably won't be too much more westward press of the heavier stuff. As I've mentioned off and on the past few days, wasn't really thrilled with the angle the storm took..coming off the GA/FL coast and then turning hard vs a track through the southeastern states to say the VA/NC coast. This storm is a classic I-95 snowstorm and one that appears to be ultimately having the very tight gradient. Really reminds me of the 2006 blizzard in that regard.

canderson Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Despite Rhe yellow echoes over Harrisburg, we still haven't seen a flake. I'm not complaining - so cool to see those NJ totals - but what could cause that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing worth measuring here in eastern Lebanon County....maybe a few flakes still in the air. 20.8° and windy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 WB North It'll be like old times when you gave us the snow obs from Carlisle. Hey Rick, Not much to report. LOL. I drove to Carlisle tonight and we had some decent snow around York Springs, enough to see it swirling around on the road, but that was it...a real slow "snow storm".
