Pittsburgh/Western PA WINTER ‘25/‘26

Recommended Posts

Perhaps I regret saying this, but I don't necessarily mind an overamped look with four days to go.  A typical trend is to see these de-amplify as we get closer (say within 24-48 hours).

The Canadian is especially guilty of overpowering primary low pressures.  I'd give it another couple days before accepting that solution.  It is running into a rather stout cold-air source.

The NBM, meanwhile, continues to tick upwards on snowfall means.  Last three runs have increased from 6.7" to 7.4" and then 10.2" on the 13 UTC run.  Continues the trend from yesterday.

Odds of more than 12" have gone up to 30%; 62% chance of 8" or more.  That's increased from a mere 4% overnight for the former.  If any de-amplification occurs, however, those odds will decrease.

Mean spread is currently 4" to 13" plus maybe a little more on the backend.

No CMC keep that warm nose away. Uggh mix right over Bethel Park. and SAGC. Seems that CMC always does best sniffing out warm layers. Hope its wrong. Still did well. I would be more than happy with 10-12 inches. 

But that’s the warmest of the guidance and still brings double digit snows. Sometimes that solution would be the “one in our camp” knowing that we are going to lose it.

yuck.. Lets hope that is the Ukie doing ukie things. Very curious to see the GEFS and the EPS. How many members of those are starting to cut up the apps?

Definitely a known bias. And again I have to think the with the majority of the guidance still with plenty of room to the south, I don’t hate it. Let’s smell the sleet and take a swing!

Crazy almost 4 days away. I just hope there is no rug pull. We have seen storms this range go poof too many times. 

Also snow looks to be back building on radar.

 

72 hours is a freaking lifetime away in model land.

What’s our bar on “anything less than this amount would be a disaster”? I’m thinking 8”, but I’d be tempted to go 6.

As of today with today's guidance im saying 6 but if it looks like this friday and we get under 8 then that's a bust

I said last night that I will go in with the mindset that I'll take a 6" snowfall and anything more is a bonus.

Definitely a good mindset when it comes to this hobby. We know how fast the rug pull can happen.
