Pittsburgh/Western PA WINTER ‘25/‘26

[Burghblizz]

I’ve had three hours or so of pixie dust. Briefly picked up a few times, then back to pixie. Between 1.25” and 1.5” so far eyeballing.

Very very light here as well on the mountain-wish I could post a pic but same here maybe 1.5 so far-so happy of the timing though

Back to mod/heavy snow, Nearing 4 inches. 

I know the Pens coach is new, but man what a disaster.

[RitualOfTheTrout]

Closing in on 1.5 inches. Snow is wet, not dry powder like I expected.

[SteelCity87]

Eyeballing around 2" in Crafton

That game was a disaster.  You were up 5-1.  How do you fooking lose that game?  This team has serious 3rd period problems

It was an unmitigated disaster in the last 10 minutes. I'm sure Rust will be reliving hitting the post with an empty net, but up 2 goals still at that point it shouldn't have been necessary to score anyways.

Picked up here in Cranberry. Decided to go out to dinner. Roads are trash, but beautiful night. About 2.5” so far. 

[ChalkHillSnowNut]

Dang Steel City is back too!!! Missed all you! 

[TheClimateChanger]

Nothing too crazy yet. Maybe 2” out there.

[colonel717]

Just shoveled 3rd time. Nearing 5 inches

Nice. I think you are in a great spot for this one.

Wind is starting to pick up some now it seems.

So the 4” streak at PIT should hold?

Yea turned out that way. At 5 now.  Hope I can pick up another inch. 5.3 today puts me at 10 for the year. Wait to see how tomorrow sets up for LE. 

[colonel717]

Looks to be some nice bands setting up just north of the county. 

[MikeB_01]

4.5 here. First time today I’ve been able to get out and measure. Still coming down. Small flakes, but a good rate.

[colonel717]

My yard spot light is 6 inches high. It's very close to fully covered. Very heavy fine snow now as those bands swing through. 

[Mailman]

3"-ish here.

[colonel717]

Reading Cleveland discussion for tomorrow LE. They are uncertain of band locations but said there will be a couple troughs sliding through that will keep any bands from setting up over same area all day.

[MikeB_01]

Nice band showing up on radar coming out of eastern Ohio.

Not sure, will probably get there. We've been getting some heavier rates as the colder air works in. Probably up to ~3" now.

[RitualOfTheTrout]

Best rates of the event imby right now. Looks like a heavier band moving in now.

Took the dogs out for a walk and pulled the boy around on the sled. Roads are pretty bad.

[colonel717]

These bands mean business. I may end up near 7. Should help push most over 4 inches. I mean 3.99 since 4 inch snows are no more... 

[Gordo74]

4.25” of snow here so far. I’ll have to remember how good December has been when it’s 50 and raining later this week and the landscape has turned back to grey and brown.

[colonel717]

I love going out in this weather. Just shoveled again. Getting close to 6.

[north pgh]

Just got back from downtown. Beautiful snow globe night. Came home to 4 inches. Under a nice band now.

If that final NWS obs comes in at 3.9”, it’s moot what anyone got in their backyard, and the streak will continue.

Buddy near Columbus said its still snowing heavy there fwiw. So lets see how long we can maximize the snow.
