I'm glad our resident winter warlock RedSky has finally thawed. Looks like yesterday's 18z Nam went, "I'll show them weenies and NAM 'em for real." I'll continue by saying the people at Mt. Holly are geniuses. I think they did a wonderful job on this one. Closing in 12" in Pottstown... Best yet to come.

Yes, although down this way the west edge seems to be slipping steadily east, and the snow is lightening up...regardless, the snow itself is a beautiful thing :snowing:.

Maybe you're in the jackpot zone this time - congrats!

Lmao clueless absolutely clueless. It's 415 and we haven't even hit the pivot point yet. That girl really is a disgrace to meteorology, if I were Glenn I'd be embarrassed to be associated with her...

I wouldn't be so sure....HRRR says the area see another 3-4" from now till it ends

 

I am at 6.5" BTW

Isn't it still rotating NW? I think we'll do well for a while.

Yeah an upper band of lots of moisture recently exploded into existence and is moving to the NW.  Just have to make sure the r/s line stays out in the ocean.

Am up to 6.5" (with compacted sleet underneath).  Temp still hovering between 31 & 32.

Point and click upped us from 2-5" to 5-9" storm total. I don't get it at all. This area really sucks at waiting for cold and backend snows. Just light snow and flurries since we flipped from light rain and sleet around 3:30. Sitting at 34f. Is this a case of the low being tucked in too much? Ala Jan 16. Is there something I've missed?

BTW congrats to those that cashed in.

I think the circulation is still bringing it in, but either the low is pulling away or some dry air is digging in on the west. Not sure. I'd love to see it fill back in.

I think we might see some more heavy bands, Chester County/Southern Berks/Perkiomen Valley is in a little Radar blind spot.
