It's been an incredible 1,348 days since the last calendar day with 4" of snow. You have to think eventually that breaks, or do you guys think it is no longer possible to see 4" of snow in a single day at PIT?

Lol - “no longer possible”.

Calendar day records can be deceiving for obvious reasons. Obviously, this is a sign of slow stretches overall. But nothing helps to inflate “last time since” like a calendar day view. I can see why you like them. 

For example - the stretch leading up to ‘92 was (anecdotally) the slowest of my lifetime. The good news is that just like the ‘78 stretch, epic weather broke out after that.

That ‘92 storm was great and disappointing all in one. There was a thump with a primary low, and a bomb on the coastal that was far enough south that it looked to hammer us as it came up the coast. But it was just a tick east. So the airport total was way low. City got a foot, 12-18” southeast, with 3’ in the ridges. It would be a “what could have been” storm if this board existed. But there were places in the southern and eastern suburbs that went on to crack 15” 3 times over the next 13 months.

Ill be the one to post the first weenie map of the season. Sure it will change 15 times between now and then.

I'll add the latest Euro for roughly the same time frame. Much less weenie but still a nice amount to look at.

I’d actually take that Euro lol

Be careful out there. Accidents everywhere, ice everywhere. I had to ditch my car and walk a few minutes to get to my house.

I don't know how this next system is going to turn out for us, but at least we already have something to track. GFS gives the weenie amounts while Euro gives us little. Others are somewhere in between the two. Should be interesting to see how this one evolves. I'm also just trying to get the page more active again. Lol

Yeah I dont trust that we just miss on the system. Early in the season so any snow is a bonus. Sunday maybe a mess for a bit before the changeover. NAM shows it barely getting above freezing when the best precip is in the area. We know how the warmth always seems to win though.

Officially, on the board at that airport:

First respectable snow within five days, it seems.

I feel like I've been asleep at the wheel, just getting caught up on the upcoming threats. 

It was nice to have a cold / snowy Thanksgiving. Looking forward to tracking with everyone this season.
