PennMan Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Mods....can we start a new thread for 2015, or change the title of this one? As bad as winter started, maybe today's the start of better times. Just a thought and I'd be glad to give it a go, if I'm deemed worthy...got a few good thread titles in mind. Nut I adjusted our title to include January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cashtown_Coop Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I adjusted our title to include January. Adjustments needed again to bring us to 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 1.8" total at noon. Temp 21.4. Can we reach 2.0"? It's gonna be tough. Grass almost completely covered. Looking nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Finally, just in the last 5 minutes the flake size increased to where you can say it's actually snowing...lol. It'll probably stop soon, but I may make it to an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmsptwx Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Dad reporting .7 in Willpo haven't measure in Danville but eyeballing about the same. Mag or other smart meteorological minds here, what are chances for some squalls to sneak into central part of state tmrw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Skies starting to break up a bit and radar transitioning to more scattered upslope snow showers. Did sneak up to 2" for a total, so not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I'm in shock (lol)...the flake size increased notably about an hour ago and it is actually still snowing even though radar indicates that it shouldn't be. I picked up another 0.5" for what will be a storm total of 2.3"! Grass completely covered, so the storm is a success. Temp up to 22.8 and rising very slowly. Only if the sun comes out will we make it to 25. Now, on to the sub-zero wind chills. That wind is going to pick up all this light, fluffy powder, and create drifts. Edit: Just melted down the snow and got 0.15" which is nearly precisely a 15:1 ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I had been eyeballing accumulations earlier, but decided to take a painful (had kidney surgery a couple weeks ago) measurement. With the snow winding down, I came out with 1.25" for the event, which was about what I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmsptwx Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Can confirm .8" imby. Hoping for some sneaky squall action tomorrow to cover the grass possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Skies starting to break up a bit and radar transitioning to more scattered upslope snow showers. Did sneak up to 2" for a total, so not too bad. Getting some light snow from the showers making it across the Allegheny Front. Best flake structure all day!

Hoar_Frost Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Light-intensity snow continues to fall here in downtown State College, but the flake structure, like up in the Bellefonte vicinity (as reported by PennMan), is quite good right now. But, the sun is peeking more and more, as it has been for the last 60-90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Just melted down the snow and got 0.15" which is nearly precisely a 15:1 ratio. Those that commute close to and after sunset watch out for this. With temps dropping during overnight hours to levels that the cheap rock salt is ineffective, drifts could turn to black ice in some areas. Not sure what PennDot has been adding to what they have been spreading today to help or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I'm guessing we ended up w/ 1.25". And for prosperity Wednesday Night Partly cloudy. Lows around 5 above. Northwest winds 15 to 20 mph.

CarlislePaWx Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Fantastic radiational cooling night in progress all over thanks to our new snow cover and mainly clear skies with calm winds. York (THV) down to +2F. I'm down to 10.5. Even CXY was 12 degrees at the 10pm ob. Could easily make it down another 2 to 5 degrees depending on how long winds stay calm overnight.

Mag or other smart meteorological minds here, what are chances for some squalls to sneak into central part of state tmrw? Are you living in Danville? My parents live in Danville.
