JamieOber Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 This. I'm kinda "traditionalist" in my mind and the weather in some ways makes the environment for holidays more festive and enhanced, in my opinion. I'd prefer for the weather around Thanksgiving time to be cold and overcast with maybe the possibility for snow showers or something like that, but I can handle a sunny environment as long as it's cold. Warm and sunny and (especially) warm and cloudy bum me out. I've been "ok" with it being sunny this week, though. I'm the same. Tomorrow being warm is sort of meh to me. I remember some really warm Tgivings but my two favorites are 1989, with the snow, and 1985, when it was cloudy, foggy/drizzly/showery, and low 40s. It just felt nice to be inside a warm house with family on those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if i'm not on over the weekend, good luck to all those heading to the bush for the tropheys. Signs are looking good for us hunters.

Voyager Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I always liked both Thanksgiving and Christmas to be gray and overcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Thanksgiving weekend being frigid with lows in the single digits but when first thing Monday morning rolled around the first day of buck season we were in the 50s and socked in fog where we hunted. Opening day looks perfect this year with 20s for lows and low 40s for highs. Tues/Wed looks pretty intriguing. Has the look of at least some kind of overrunning event which could have rain and/or snow with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Hi all. Happy Thanksgiving to all today. I'm sitting at the gate in Orlando where we had a beautiful sunrise...temp 54 degrees. Had a great 6 days in Disney World...first vacation in 3 years! I can see remotely that it got down to 24.0 at home this morning...coldest of the season to date. Is there some snow in our future next week? Latest disco liking the euro/gfs blend with storm staying south of pa?? Surprised zak and others arent saying more. Looking forward to turkey in Carlisle this afternoon with the in-laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 That would be great. Looks like 4-6 here? I'm sure ratios would be 12:1 or so with the temp below 30 the whole time...maybe closer to 6 or 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeffsvilleWx Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Yep, light snow. thanks. as a crew chief, I didn't have to know how to read METAR's, but we did get a brief class on them. I also call BS, I live 5 mins from KLNS, no snow last night. Windy though. 90% of the leaves are finally on the ground, if it wasn't so windy I'd be raking the yard (again) today.

JamieOber Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 GFS trends away from significant snow here, Euro trends toward. We get .26 at UNV and MDT gets .58. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternUSWX Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Here is my first map. Taking a look at models this afternoon, this is what we have come up with. This is our first prediction in terms of Precipitation types and a somewhat amount forecast. Zones Dark blue: Best chance of seeing snow and the heaviest snow ove r over 3". Light blue: Light snow with possible moderate snows at times. Accumulations of under 3" possible. Darker pink color: Mix of rain and snow but, more snow. Under of snow 2" is possible. Lighter pink: Mix but, more rain than snow. Maybe around 1" of snow. Green: All rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastern you might want to think about developing one or two set color scales with correcponding snow values and including a legend on your maps. These elements would give a far superior visual presentation than what you have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
