Euro bowling ball 12/26 and 12/27, with some scattered frozen in PA, at least SOMETHING to watch...quick warm up afterwards as it drags a warm front our way but better than watching the parade of highs on the GFS.

Yea...It actually has a light snow to a mix the Friday after Christmas. Way out there, but at least it's not as bad as previous runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We basically had nothing on the ground before that band. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Wow, nice! It's the first real winter day here - snowing all day (I mean, not even enough for a dusting but the air is filled with flakes), and yea it's chilly with the wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Nice squall arrived, visibility 1/8 to 1/4 and roads caving. Looks like at least another decent one coming behind this one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasnownut Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Looking at radar, if that band that is headed SE holds together, the turnpike may be a bit sketchy in the next hour or so. KX enjoy buddy. You are long overdue. Looks like you keep it till the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I knew they had it shutdown both ways. It's hearsay as of now but people around there have mentioned 15 to 20 cars involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTrout Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I feel like this is a good time to ask this question with squalls around. I live in the very north west corner of Lancaster county outside of Elizabethtown. When tracking t-storms, squalls, clippers, then the bigger storms from the south, etc, I have to bounce around the different radar locations to see what is coming and the returns aren't accurate half the time. I think a couple of you guys are in the same situation placed between State College, Baltimore and the Philly radar. What does everyone in this area use live storm tracking? Is there a best service/app that blends the radars and gives a semi accurate radar for this area? I asked Horst this on twitter and he said im in a radar hole, especially for squalls and t-storms.

Intellicast is a fairly decent regional radar to use that also doesn't do too bad with p-type depiction either, but yea York/Lancaster county is a tough spot in PA for doppler products as LWX or CCX only sees down to about 6-7K feet at best on the 0.5º tilt. Considering the Sus Valley is one of the more severe prone parts of the state and with the population you would think a doppler placed somewhere around there would be of interest. I say put one in Tamaqua. Between CCX, BGM, and DIX... Voyager can't see under 9-10k feet with any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGAL used to have a live radar but its been down since 2017 I believe, it was nice for the Sus Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I miss it especially during summer for t-storm evolution. I wonder what happened, other than maybe just a repair that cost way too much for them to handle.
