MAG5035 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Some lingering light snow falling and 35ºF. Wasn’t home for the heavier precip earlier but it looked to have been a light car topper here. I did get my first official “roads caved” pic of the year at the top of Wopsy Mountain. Didn’t have a ruler with me but probably about 1.5” or so of wet snow up there in the grassy spots. Seemed like about 1500’ was where the switch flipped from a car topper to a coating+. There’s some light accumulation on the ridges east of Altoona as well. IMBY was just a couple hundred feet elevation too low for this one. Either way, good to see a wintry type event fairly early just getting to Mid-November. There was even some light WAA snow falling first thing this morning as well but temps were too warm. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomixwx Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 About an inch to an inch and a half in Philipsburg and still lightly snowing. Nice little event. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Pretty amazing consistency on the GFS, CMC, Icon and Euro for this Thursday. First three almost look identical while the Euro timing is slightly slower....a frontal system connected to a very large system in South Central Canada approaches while a strong South West wind sweeps upper 60 and low 70's temps (Mid 50 DP's) over the LSV. The record that day is quite high at 76 so probably not reachable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they got a little overzealous. They were carrying a rain forecast for Sunday afternoon a few days out, then backed it to rain/snow. But with their AM update yesterday, they went all snow. When rates were good here, it fell as mostly snow, but that wasn’t the case in the city. It looks like there’s actually a 0.3 on the books for PIT. If I kept records, I’d be recording a T imby.

Maybe the school child snow day zealousness got hold of them. There is always that issue of "wet snow" and how you tell the public. A casual reader might see a snow forecast and cancel travel when the forecast is really snow and 36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not a disaster when they weren’t really forecasting much accumulation anyway. Would guess the airport got its 0.3” between 4 and 5 when the temperature hovered between 32-33 and it was still snowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
