I'm currently 3 degrees cooler than Orlando...it's overcast down there right now, I believe I have a puncher's chance of exceeding Orlando's high today on March 9th. The winter of 2019/2020 lives on!

We better get get 4" or so in the next month otherwise all the hub bub over whether us ranking as the third lowest met winter snow means anything will all go by the wayside when we end up with the lowest full winter "season" snowfall in history at MDT.

The third was for the now closed Met Winter snow totals but if we end up under 9" for all months in this "season" it will be the gold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold is done. Prediction: MDT hits 74 Monday. It's 74. What do I win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Reaching my high of the day now, shortly after 4:30pm at 73.4 degrees. Humidity 20%. Welcome to Phoenix. Looking at the next 7 days, the lowest forecast temp doesn't even touch 32 with 34 the lowest. Wow again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that many people have thrown in the towel a long time ago this Winter. I enjoyed the last 2 day warm up, but I’m not done tracking Winter weather possibilities. When we get one more snow in the next few weeks, I will one of the few on this board that will proudly be able to say that I never gave up!

Bubbler86 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Euro, Icon, CMC, and GFS all show how it could snow Sunday Am. GFS is the most amped up of the 4 with the Icon and Euro sliding to our south right now. Temps near freezing during the time frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is still being depicted on Friday I might become mildly interested...until then, meh. The GFS in particular has teased us more times then can be counted.

I totally agree with that assertion but I thought it was something to point out since all the models have some energy ejecting out toward us...just varying degrees of umphf.

Yea, this just a "looks its pretty out this morning/gone so quickly" type potential. No cold air..and won't put us over 9" at MDT to avoid infamy. Someday Granddaddy bubbler will be telling the story of this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible scenery is attractive to me, but let's be honest here...last year they received 476" of snow in town, so you know what the main attraction is. They received 207" of snow in February 2019. In February 2020? 0". A complete shutout. We're running about 20" below our seasonal average here. Out in Mammoth Lakes they're a solid 338" behind last year and about 250" below normal. We ain't the only ones that have endured a painful winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the issue for S Central PA is not the actual running total its the lack of threats, cold and school/work delays that people really have noticed. Joe Average Weather consumer could not tell you that MDT is very close to breaking their all time record but they could tell you that we have had basically no snow this year. The only event of consequence was really localized as well. Dax had like 6" of snow that one storm while out here we only had 2" of slush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great point - this past weekend I realized that we haven't even been close to anything of significance other than the event you mentioned. (I received 5.2" from that event) The lack of anything to seriously track has been incredible - no late nights staying up for the Euro or any of our other favorite winter rituals...it's been an almost total void of nothingness.

Wow, I did not know parts of Lancaster county had that much. I thought it was mostly localized to York. But yea that event is pretty much it and if I remember correctly it was pretty much a surprise that you guys ended up with the rates to get it. Pivotal picked the perfect year to offer free Euro, for our own pockets, as there was absolutely no urge to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of Lanco (including Lancaster proper) did not - I live just a mile or so from the Suskie in extreme western Lancaster county and was able to cash in on the same banding that @daxx did over in eastern York. I've had 9.6" for the season with 5.2" of it from one event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
