sauss06 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Unfortunately Sauss as long as the precip. keeps going I'd imagine. What's unfortunate is I can't really see the radar that well on my phone so I can't see how much longer it'll last. From what I see there is nothing on radar but I still have frzn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001kx Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 It looks like we're starting to see that well advertised late storm split starting to occur, though it seems the slot is further east more over the Sus Valley and NE PA and that secondary heavier precip area is further east/southeast. We'll have to see if this stuff mounting a charge in western PA get off the mountains and slide across the state. Looks like some kind of line of heavy snow embedded in that. 2001kx must be seein some pretty intense snowfall attm. Just got in from plowing and snowmobiling. That heavy band that went through was fun (huge flakes) we are up to 5.4" and still snowing although lighter now. Total snow on ground 19" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGAL's live radar show's a thin area of light precip falling in a corridor from Harrisburg to Lebanon, and on eastward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Hopefully we can precipitate for the rest of the evening through 2:00 am or so...this would be a sweet ice storm if it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itunis Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Close to 3" here. It looks like a few more hours of snow on tap. It's been a decent event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Well, I think we set the first record of the new month. The amount of times a snow map can change in a 12 hour period. CTP changed it yet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Quick OT, That 18z hr NAM looked pretty sizable with the second wave in PA. Also still looks really mixy with the cutter. RGEM starting to get into range of the cutter and it's showing some decent front end mix too. GFS seems to be the least enthused overall with front end mixing. Either way probably gonna end up at least an advisory mix event for most of us with that. Gonna be an interesting week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortheastPAWx Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Well now it's coming down decently with good flake size. Repeat of last Saturday with a backend shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pirates21 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Im up to near 5.5 inches here in Altoona...temp at 28.8 with light snow still falling. yep right on the money..5.5" here too.

Yea we'll see what happens with that, with that trailing wave setup I feel like we could have a lagging frontal boundary that hangs up near the Mason-Dixon somewhere. GFS is probably pressing it southeast more cuz it has had a stronger cutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 yep right on the money..5.5" here too. Snow looked like it was slowing donwn. Now its really picking up again. Wow that's pretty impressive, no idea why CTP backed off their 4-6" range in the Altoona area. Probably should report that so they can change their map once again lol. 4.3" up here in Bellwood. Saw a report on CTP facebook about it changing to rain/sleet in Johnstown a little while ago. Think the Altoona area should maintain all snow with the rest of this main precip pushing through..wouldn't rule out some freezing drizzle later on though with any lingering very light precip.

When I was in 4th grade, I was one of those kids. I still have the old school paper map the meteorologist gave me then. It directly impacted me getting my meteo degree.

pirates21 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I think we're getting a little changeover now to some sleet and freezing drizzle. Snow is slowing down. Ive measured in different areas around the house. 5" seems to be a more accurate measurement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 12z UKMET likes both events this week for the LSV. For Tuesday it puts down 2 inches of snow at MDT. For the last storm, it gives us another 6 inches at MDT by Thursday pm. it matches up pretty well with the Euro. Hopefully tonight's 0z runs keep it going.

Vogan Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 It was fun while it lasted. We had it all here... snow, sleet, and freezing rain. I added 2.3" of snow and sleet with a total of .45" of liquid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawatch Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Went out and measured - still snowing 2.2" of snow. I notice that a lot of these snow storms lately have had the tiny or really fine snow flakes. Could someone explain what in the pattern is causing that? Is it just the cold? Thanks PSU Nam & Euro is trolling us I do believe... Ensembles not looking bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
