Closing in on a 1" rain total so far. Temp has dropped almost 14 degrees with the initial cool front....HRRR has temps in the single digits by 6pm and still has some festivus snow

FOX29: Pitt at 3F (although I'm seeing 9F)...w/1-3" expected. Think a white Christmas is imminent.

Like the back building going on here...

I love how W 22 G 32 MPH is just "breezy"! 

I wanted to text my sis to tell her that it was "blizzarding" out there but I know there's a "technical" definition for what would be considered "a blizzard". :lol:

Still getting on and off rain and am up to 0.52" with more apparently incoming.  Temp is 44 with dp 44 and light rain.

Let's see what this pencillonimous line does when it gets here, assuming that the northern edge extends a bit. Could be sleet or graupel based on reports from the MA. Currently 44F here.

I think we're alright for snow looking at points west. MA/S always seems to get screwed...I'll take a 1" w/wind and we're guaranteed a white Christmas w/the cold temps expected.

That thin line was cool, started as a heavy shower, then over to heavy sleet, and then back to light rain in about 5 minutes. Did get a coating of sleet in shaded areas. Temp now 40F.

Some backbuilding going on in eastern MD and SE PA. Wouldn’t be surprised to squeeze out an inch or two in the Lehigh Valley. Still raining here but that R/S line looks like it’s racing east.

You can see the wave riding up north on radar well, I too think I can get a half inch to inch here
