pghwx Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 First winter storm warning of the year! I'm actually surprised I thought they'd stick with the advisory for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t watched local newscasts in forever I think he got rehired, but most of them should have been fired after 2/5/2010. Literally on the six o’clock news they were forecasting 3-6 inches when we already had 6 inches And it was coming down at 2 inches an hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 At this point, 4-6" seems like the floor with the initial onslaught of snow. The question becomes where the CCB sets up and what kind of rates it can produce. NWS recently updated to puff the totals a little. I think that's a fine forecast for now. We have through 12Z tomorrow, give or take, to see what the mesos say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a good range for now given the possibility of briefly reduced ratios etc. Can always adjust the ranges a little bit again tonight one way or the other if needed without making big swings.

I think this is one they will keep bumping up totals as we near the event. I am sticking 6-10 but think an 8-12 type event is a very real possibility as well.

north pgh Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 I just came back from the grocery store and it wasn't too busy but was starting to pick up. People I spoke with including family and friends have no idea we are getting anything other than our usual couple inches. Wait until the panic sets in tonight when the numbers start going up.

stjbeautifulday Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Verszyla just said 4-6 for Allegheny. He said likely about 6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burghblizz Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 If I had to give a public forecast, I’d probably say 6-10” west to east across AGC. The only thing concerning me about challenging some of those higher model totals is the progressive nature of this. Relatively quick window to capitalize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also always check their Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/NWSPittsburgh/ too. I find that even when the discussion's aren't updated they do seem be quicker to post their thinking via that medium. Also good to check during the storm, sometimes they will update with some localized info like where a band is setting up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj3 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 NWS has this starting pretty early in the day. I was hoping to get home from work in time for the heavy stuff but it may come during the PM commute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing, depending how this plays out we are probably only marginally behind the entire last season total by mid December.
