sauss06 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Bah, CTP has us in the "no accumulation" grid now. Oh we'll, excited for you northerners! don't give up yet.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahantango#1 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I wonder if the heavier accumulation of snow will shift southeast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortheastPAWx Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 I suspect that no one has a clue to what is going to happen, but something is going to happen. tv weather dude Joe Snedeker hasn't been all that informative. My htought is that we get a lot of snow with a bit of ice for wednesday into thursday I still personally won't believe in a major snowfall until it happens with the way the Wyoming Valley is.

Atomixwx Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 In a more somber note: 2 firefighters were shot to death battling a blaze in New York.

canderson Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 GFS appears south/east a bit. And colder. We have a trend, maybe enough to give MDT a 2-3" dump before 850s win out. Jamie you look golden, all the way to Williamsport and up to Scranton. The UKMET mirrors this trend according to the PHL thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Look closely at the 850/700mb lows-if they stay south/east of you, you're much more likely to stay snow, but if they go to your north/west, you're likely to change over to sleet because mid level warm air wins out. In my time in State College we got burned with that many times (2/14/07 being the most blatant), but hopefully this time you all cash in!! One positive as well is that the precip seems well out ahead of the mid level warmth, so hopefully a lot of it is done before any possible change over.

NortheastPAWx Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 I'm more uneasy about this being ultimately an elevation event....e.g. mountains significant snow, valleys <4" before rain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I'm more uneasy about this being ultimately an elevation event....e.g. mountains significant snow, valleys <4" before rain... There should be a good amount of CAD drainage-look at the bending isobars. I don't think right now that many people outside the lower Susquehanna Valley see rain. Sleet/ZR I would be more worried about, or a later transfer bringing in more mid level warmth. In storms like this I almost ignore the surface low track and focus on the mid level lows instead for central PA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieOber Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 MAG or someone can confirm, but eyeballing Euro it looks great. MDT gets around .8 frozen, UNV/IPT both around 1.5 all snow it appears. I am looking at AccuWx pro text but don't know about the mid-levels.

canderson Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I'm an idiot but it (EURO) looks colder to me as well Jamie. I can't read it to see frozen precip, but it indeed appears colder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paweatherguy1 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 BTW, once again, the Euro absolutely owned the GFS. Euro basically locked in on this 3 days ago, and didn't budge while the GFS flailed around like a fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 tombo says MDT 4-6", LNS 1-2" from Euro run fwiw. Most expect the cooling trend to continue a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
