cfbaggett Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 FWIW, the mean temperature at State College for DJF was 24.97 F. Last year it was 24.98 F. I guess that's why they carry it to the hundredth place. Hoping for at least an 1" today... I must admit to being unimpressed with this storm thus far.

NortheastPAWx Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 It was always modeled that it would be lighter stuff until late afternoon/early evening...we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people are saying this winter feels way colder than last winter. I imagine due to a focus on February and the frequent subzero lows and brutal highs in the single digits. Fresh half inch or so out there. At least it's covering up the brown crap on the sides of the roads. I can't imagine it'll add up too much more once it warms a bit when we get into the afternoon.

PennMan Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Light snow in Myerstown, Lebanon County. 21 degrees. A few tenths of an inch down so far. I think the March sun should have roads clear for my drive back to Bellefonte later. My one and only forecast: State College/Bellefonte: 3" little or no mix Harrisburg/York/Carlisle/Lancaster: 2-3" some ice Lebanon/Schuylkill Counties: 3-4" little mixing Lewistown/Selinsgrove/Williamsport: 2" little or no mixing Altoona/Clearfield: 4-5" little or no mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawatch Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 How did we ever make out with the temperatures for February? Did it end up setting a record for being the coldest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 How did we ever make out with the temperatures for February? Did it end up setting a record for being the coldest? IPT beat the old record for February by over a degree. Harrisburg broke the record as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerplunk Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 State College broke it—barely—with 17.3. Old record was 17.9 in 1979. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 With temps in the low 20's and with recent frigid weather, I don't think March 1st sun angle will have much impact today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 About 0.8" so far with a steady light snow. I actually can see the sun bleeding through the clouds a bit attm. Gonna have to get better rates when we get towards the afternoon hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Just some very light snow here, much heavier snow down in northern MD it appears from reading reports and looking at radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Pixie dust here with about 0.4" of accumulation. Temp slowly creeping higher now up to 23.3. Bottomed out at 11.9 shortly after midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 Thoughts for later on MAG? I know we were really only progged for light stuff the first half of this. Yea I think the better stuff will come in this afternoon, and perhaps more towards the late afternoon for you. RAP (and HRRR when it was recent) seemed to have that initial push of light stuff and then regroups a bit and pushes more solid precip across the state. It does appear the models that had that minimum of QPF in south-central PA is going to come to fruition as precip eventually lingers in western PA while the rest of it solidifies with the weak low developing as it hits the coast. I'm thinking general 2-3" for your area.. maybe with a little luck can get to 4" or so. I think the western half of the state is going to have the advantage on widespread 4-7" amounts.
