Pittsburgh/Western PA WINTER ‘25/‘26

Recommended Posts

This storm just feels like a little bit of wasted potential, I'm not even talking for us, and I know it still hasn't happened yet but the garbage antecedent air mass and it coming together just a little bit to late are really going to limit areas that see something historic.

Don't get me wrong, the areas under the blizzard warning are going to get rocked and Id love to be there and see it, but had this dug a litt further SW it really could have been much more for a much bigger area.

Yeah its definitely not gonna reach its full potential. Those NAM numbers will most likely not verify. Still a 12-18 with 24+ in localized areas

Yes most models are showing about 6-10 inches less than projected. Still I nice snowfall but a lot of people thinking they were getting 20 inches will be disappointed if they only get 10.

Hell of a Hockey game! Team USA! Gotta love hockey players, Jack Hughes picks his teeth up off the ice, is right back out there and scores the OT winner.

 

If that was Lebron James he would have been stretchered off & into ICU

Can you imagine running out McKinnon, McDavid, and Makar for OT and losing. Loved the celebration after. Not a smile to be found on Canada. Imagine none of them will even display their silver medal. 

Nice to see 2 yinzers on the team and get the gold.

I mean if Hughes misses that puck in our zone and you have those 2 guys going in the other way that might have ended it in favor of Canada. That's usually how it goes though, its a razors edge one way or another. Amazing play all around. Just goes to show, if you have hot goaltending and keep it a one shot game anything is possible.

I did feel a little bad for Sid, had to be killing him to not be out there competing. Hope its a short recovery and he's back to 100 percent for the Pens.

I have never seen one of them come to fruition when it says slight risk. The storm today had moderate or high risk for coast areas when it first came out. 

Very true. If you look at 12z modeling there is a few different chances for snow. Still too far out to really narrow anything down.

nice burst in the south hills right now

Had some nice bursts overnight, right after mid-night. Was surprised to hear the plow about 4am. I'd say this overperformed. 

Looks like the storm in the east under performed for many but those who got it are getting crushed. Central and southern Delaware, Central and Coastal NJ, Long Island, Rhode Island getting smoked right now. My brother in Delaware only got 8-9 inches. All afternoon yesterday the snow stayed about 10 miles away. Then he just missed on the good bands. I was frustrated for him.

Sometimes I’ll think the  same thing as far as friends or family getting waxed or missing out - then remember they don’t care nearly as much

That's what I was saying yesterday, no doubt some areas are getting a historic blizzard reading some of the obs threads, but it was really close to something bigger for a larger area or real estate. Looks like it did take a little longer to capture and get going and thus DE probably didn't do as well, also tracked a bit further SE, and with the cutoff being so sharp that really impacted places on the edge.

I can't imagine historic blizzard warnings and being essentially 2 counties over and getting only like 2-3 inches. I'd probably make some posts in here that I'd later regret lol

Multiple chances it appears to add on the next 7 or so days. Wouldn’t be surprised if we take a run at  50” for the season over that time.

I think thats what Scott is looking at. The numerous lake shower and the clippers showing up on the gfs and euro.
