Radar says you're in for potentially 2 more rounds - first is hot on the tail of the current storms, then there might be a break before the next wave moves in later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 NSSL MPAS was the only CAM that performed well last night. I don't remember too many of their maps ever posted here. We should add itSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 One thing to keep in mind concerning the temps. Average high temps this time of the year are quite a bit higher than some people might think. 46 at MDT. Although it reached 61 at MDT yesterday it was only the 5th warmest day of the month when looking at it from a departure sense. It was warmer Feb 2nd and the 9th-11th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great info - so, we've had 5 days this month with a daily high at least 15 degrees AN? That's impressive. Today will be #6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who said Spring has Sprung on Feb 1 would have a valid argument despite the wet snow on a couple days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 0.15" of rain since yesterday so far here in East Nantmeal. We should see a couple rounds of heavy rain today. The first around the lunchtime hour and the 2nd with the cold frontal passage toward the 7pm hour. Some spots could see over 1/2 inch of rain today. Temps will again soar to near 60 degrees before the front passes. Behind the front winds will increase to near 40mph and temps will plunge from near 60 degrees at around 7pm to near freezing by 11pm. Tomorrow we will stay in the below normal 30's before our next warm up gets underway on Friday. County wide records for today: High 73 Devault and Phoenixville (1997) / Low 16 below Phoenixville (1934) / Rain 1.82" Coatesville (1902) / Snow 7.5" Coatesville (2005) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to see snow but didn't want to run the risk of getting stranded. We had so much on our list and as much as I would have loved to stay longer...just too much to see out west. When we made our plans we obviously had no idea we would be going at the end of the most epic Sierra snow season in recorded history. Had we gone just 4 weeks sooner there was nearly 80" more on the ground from when we were there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahantango#1 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 ABC-27 still mentions that snow squalls are possible overnight. that could put down a coating of snow. They are unsure if theywill develope or not. But they are giving a heads up to people traveling overnight tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find a resort hotel that is 10 stories high to really experience that wind then switch out to a chalet during the pedestrian 2-3"/hr rates.

I think you're both right - I always thought it was loudest from overnight through the following morning. I can remember some incredibly loud storms in the 2am - 10am timeframe over the years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomixwx Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 My daughter text me about 730 with a picture of her dog in the bath tub. I have two golden retrievers, one reposed, one still with us, both used the space between the shitter and the wall as their thunder buddy. The living dog is probably the largest golden on record. He probably tips the scales at around 130 lbs. Remarkably he's not a fat dog. Watching him squeeze his big ass under and behind the can is hilarious.Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
