Never made it to 50 here...pretty much has rained all afternoon. 49 was the high in Maytown. (Only .04" of rain has fallen) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take my chances with an active pattern in the heart of Winter and hope it’s just cold enough to deliver snow. We will probably win some & lose some, but it doesn’t look boring. Exactly- chances in January are our best bet at getting something we all want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I agree totally and say as much often. However, we're still moving forward towards peak climo for snow, which was my point here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDT only averages 5.4 inches of snow through the end of December. I would love more snow in December, but Our averages and odds are much higher in January & February when MDT averages closer to 10 inches per month.

Blizzard of 93 Posted January 3, 2023 Author Share Posted January 3, 2023 The 0z GFS & Canadian both have a Saturday night system that delivers minor Advisory level snow to most of us. Hopefully this trends into a trackable event this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Joy Snowman Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Echoing others, was a bit disappointed with the unexpectedly wet conditions yesterday. I had some buddies over to saw down some trees and limbs and didn’t care for the dampness. But the Miller Lite was flowing soundly so things weren’t all bad ha. Plus a Penn State victory made things more tolerable. Still no rain gauge up at the new house ugh. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasnownut Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 and to add to Newmans post above....verbatim the 12z GFS shows snow on snow for the LSV inside the next 7 days, as there is a wave coming UNDER us next Monday as well. I'm taking this as a step in the right direction, as were not 240+ searching for paths to victory, and ens guidance continues to look a bit less ugly than what we currently are seeing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 The CMC shows a slightly more substantial system for the LSV but it is Sun Night into Monday on timing. Temps are very marginal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, it is above freezing from 750 to 800 and down but apparently not enough to melt the snow per this one predict. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasnownut Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 and to add to the options for next Monday, the ICON has a wonky Miller B come at us into WVA then pops off the VA coast. rt 30 and N stay in the blue precip and only coatsville to conshohocken get taint/rain. Not sure I'm buying what its selling, but I'm doing some heavy window shopping for sure. Overall consensus is notably better (and flow pattern looks reasonable), so hey I'm taking that as a ++?

Bubbler86 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Euro looked more like the CMC with the single wave affecting us, late weekend early next week, but did not agree that the column would be cool enough for snow as well as minoring out the system as it moves across PA while transferring to the SE coast on its way OTS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasnownut Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 forecast high for today is 60 here in etown. Currently at 49 after starting out at 43. Small diurnal swing so far.

TheDreamTraveler Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I'm guessing the nighttime lows have to be close to a record tonight. Low 50's for a lot of areas. Considering my towns record daytime high was 60 and the low tonight here is 53 I'd imagine it's gotta be close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be in play though the HRRR has MDT getting down to 55 tomorrow AM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
