Pittsburgh, PA Thread: Winter '14-'15


Recommended Posts

I agree, my post wasn't to discount everyone's reports, just to clarify I think sometimes these reports are wrong either intentionally or just ignorance of the person measuring.

I apologize. I really only bicker with one person, and I think that person purposely under reports for whatever reason.

Cant say I am surprised this underperformed for MBY. Looking ahead, models back to picking up weekend storm. One of these will get MBY with over 4 inches.... Boston looks to be the jackpot area again. They could pull off a Buffalo type of situation if this verifies.

That is not a bad look, I wonder how much of that is from the Thursday-Friday clipper though? The GFS and Euro had been holding a low in the southern stream cutoff the last couple of runs which in turn caused the Ground Hog Day potential to be completely northern stream driven. This is always said to be a bias of the Euro (doesn't mean its always wrong though) and I wonder if the GFS since its upgrade may do the same. Would be nice to see how the old GFS handled it just to get an idea if a possible bias was in play or not. Anyways, depending when \ if that eject and how it interacts with the northern stream will determine the track we see. Another words, all eyes to the baja low for the potential storm to start Feb.

 

I the meantime, its snowing now, and we have another clipper to get through end of the week. :snowing:

I didn't see how the GEM plays the clipper right before this threat.  The GFS shows about 1-4 for the clipper.

Yeah, I'm in New Ken, right across for the Giant Eagle and I measured about 2.75-3 inches this morning before I left for work so I find it hard to believe someone got 5 unless they are including the 1-3 that was still on the ground in most places prior to the start of the storm. Hard to imagine a band that localized, but I guess its possible.

Yea I was thinking it had to be depth and not new snow. We got close to 3 inches overnight but it has been snowing steadily all day and we will probably end up close to 5 if not 6 inches by the time things wind down. I was skeptical that we would actually get close to 6 with the light snow rates last night but it has been persistent thus far today.

12z GEM  looks like it is similar to the EURO.  We are on the northern and western edges   .
