Daytime snow Sunday looks to be legit. Anyone else reminded of PD2 with this storm? I believe that one was an all day Sunday event as well.

The thing that makes this different from PD2 is we torched behind that storm and the snow was gone by the end of the week. This one, we won’t even sniff freezing for quite some time.

Yeah, I hate when everything starts melting right after a storm. I mean Ill take a big dog no matter what, but if I could control the weather I'd have a hard time drawing it up much better than what mother nature is providing. Cold before and after the storm for the win with more snow chances too.

Is anyone concerned we don’t get as cold tonight and tomorrow since we don’t have really any snow pack?

i havent compared the RTMA to the models, but the SREFs have a feature that plots their members vs the actual temp. Temps are definitely a little warmer than what they are predicting.

Concerned about what? Tonights temps should not affect the storm. Its the warmth at midlevels that would be the issue should mixing occur not surface temps tonight and tomorrow.

The funny thing is lack of snow cover will help freeze the ground. I still have 1-2 inches of cover.

I think it depends on where you are located. At my house, in the woods, there is an inch or two of solid snow. So I imagine that wooded areas - except on east or south facing slopes - are still fairly well covered. Obviously, in the city, there's little if any snow left, but the rivers are quite ice covered now.

I’ve noticed you get this crap in Pittsburgh sometimes, where they forecast falling temps through the day and it just doesn’t happen until the sun goes down. I doubt it affects overnight lows tonight or temps tomorrow, and I really doubt it cuts into our snow totals Sunday. That isn’t the fail mode.

Just wanted to say it's been fun tracking this thing with everyone the last several days.  Hope everyone gets to cash in.

Also... glad no one on here had a meltdown at any point.  I remember we had one poster on here a few years ago.  He(?) was wound up good and proper.

Well, just that the surface temp wouldn’t be as cold before the storm and it would be easier to push the warm air in.  Just wondering if this could be a concern.

I agree. If I am posting too much, please let me know. I don't want to make it seem like I am hogging the board. Too many map?

I don't feel bad - he was a wet blanket on enjoying the hobby imo. I'm not saying we all have to be positive patty all the time, but goodness gracious that was tough to deal with every day.
