Yeah, for a brief moment a few minutes ago it started to spit out some nice dendrites, but as quickly as it started, it stopped. Such a tease.

CarlislePaWx Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The DC area continues to get raked with 25-30 dbz's. That easily should be inch/hr or more. Wonder how much they've picked up so far. Meanwhile...it's back to zilch here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexP Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 It snowed moderately again in Lemoyne for a little under an hour and now it looks like we're going to hit another hole in the radar. I'm being generous when I say that we've got about an inch on the ground. Temp up to 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Meanwhile...it's back to zilch here. Just when it looked like it was building north into Harrisburg, it fell apart. Why? As soon as any kind of decent return hits the snow hole, it dries up and fizzles out. I'm being generous when I say that we've got about an inch on the ground. Temp up to 25. I got maybe a half inch, and most of it was the usual pixie dust variety. It just doesn't know how to rip dendrites in the I-81 corridor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuff like this makes me wonder how things would play out even if "the big one" ever came to fruition - by which I mean a storm that would give a large chunk of PA a SECS/MECS criteria event.

Rick G Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 We are streaming a bball game from the college today. I drew the short straw so I am watching the stream from home. anyway, I had to run out to the store and get gas for SHE WHO MUST BE OBAYED, it was freaking cold. Perhaps I should have worn socks. 24 and light snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had more snow in 96 than 93. We did have a couple of nice storms since then. We are due for a HECS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite honestly, I don't know if the "big one" is ever going to come into fruition for us. Think about it, over the past 10 years, who has been getting all the big accumulation events? DC, Philly, NYC, Boston. We have been on the outside looking in for nearly every event. I've had 2 storms since 2001 that produced over a foot here. Fourteen years to get two big events and each of those places had a winter where they got two...and a few others in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are due for a HECS In the past 20 years, the tendency has been for the true HECS/MECS to be southeast of I81 and closer to I95.

That's what I said to Wmsptwx earlier today. We've been here for the last five years thinking our "big one" is going to happen, the classic "everyone gets buried" scenario. But time and time again we watch scrounging flurries while blizzard conditions take place to the south and east. I think we're just in a long-term rut and it might be several years before we see the classic "big one" again. And the worst part is reading forums like NYC where all they do is complain and bicker, and yet they keep getting what they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It pisses me off that they complain about when they get 8-12 when they were supposed to get 2 feet. When we miss in my area its from 4-6 to coating to an inch with rain.

Blizzard of 93 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Despite the current radar, steady light snow continues. Eyeballing it, looks like almost 2 inches so far here in Marysville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexP Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 And here I thought I was being conservative when I told my friends that we'd see about 4-5 inches. My friends down in York/Hanover say it's been much better down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friends down in York/Hanover say it's been much better down there. Just look at the PA511 cameras along I-83 from York on south to the MD line. It's been snowing good down there for hours. Basically, it's snowing good along and south of US222 from Reading to Lancaster, and then along and south of US30 from Lancaster to York. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I owe like $4,000 to uncle Sam. Good thing I didn't depend on today's snow removal to find that bill cause 1.5-2" snow wouldn't pay that bill lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 18z NAM sim. Radar shows 20+ Dbz precip over the LSV through 6z tonight. By the 9z screen, most precip shifted off to the east. So, if for once the NAM is right, then we should have another 9 hours or so to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
