MAG5035 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I had pretty low expectations coming home tonight but we managed to pick up about an inch here this evening. Nice to finally get at least some white on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 We went to a party south of State College and drove back through a pretty good snow shower, and the roads were tricky. First time all year had to do some winter driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PottercountyWXobserver Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Just after 8AM, started flurrying. Have noticed some decent returns to yet slide by, wonder if I can pick up .1" or a little more from it. Looks to be associated with the LP near the area still.

JamieOber Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Got about a quarter inch overnight, but a pretty good snow shower is moving through. Looks snowy at Penn State Erie right now: http://128.118.18.114/-wvhttp-01-/GetOneShot?image_size=640x480 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Already down to 23.2° here, a crisp night for sure. I saw some remaining patches of snow along I-81 in Dauphin and Lebanon Counties from yesterday's light snow. Nothing here at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 This is looking to be quite an active week to 10 days shaping up and is probably going to feature all the major precip types at one point or another. 12z European had 1-3 snow oppurtunities depending on ones location in C-PA just from Dec. 23-Dec 28. Stormwise, aside from the first storm around midweek.. this would actually be a decent winter storm pattern if we had just a tad more help anchoring in a colder regime. Where that baroclinic battle zone sets up is going to be something to watch with these potential events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 . Got to 17.1, also 3rd consecutive teens morning. When I worked at Accuwx, my email was the only one on the site so I would get a lot of,well, interesting email. One of the best was from a mentally challenged guy in Clinton County, he would send me ops and a "good job!" If the forcast was good. If it was a bust then he'd say better luck next time or whatever. I miss him. What did you do when you were at Accuwx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Can you get me a job - I do the same stuff! In weather news, as of this morning KMDT has 71.97" of rain. The previous record was 59.27". Looking at all the rain this week headed for us, we might push 80". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckyplayer8 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 GFS is drastically different from its previous runs. (that I've seen) I would say a significant I80 winter storm this run as the mid stream energy has for the 23-26 threat has gone from strung out mess to well organized in just 12 hrs. Model has a Miller B with the primary occluding a tad farther South than usual and a secondary coastal gaining strength off Hatteras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckyplayer8 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Meh, clown maps aren't exactly what I thought...but solid 2-4 stripe along I80. With the interiors luck, would say that would be "significant" lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hckyplayer8 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Better than that. Check out wundermap it is awesome. http://www.wunderground.com/wundermap Looks the same as Oct. Would be some light stuff for lower elevations that have marginal temps. More for higher elevations until you get into the Pocono's and finally Southern New England. I84 gets destroyed this run.

sauss06 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 If you want to see absolute porn check out 6z dgex. I'd rather wait a couple days (like Friday) until i latch onto any thoughts or ideas about a snow storm for the 24-26.. I'm just not buying it. When a lot of things have to happen to get snow, it doesn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
