GFS did get a tad NW with the snow/sleet line compared to its 18z run, getting into a portion of Lancaster and maybe extreme southern York. Still a plenty big enough hit for everyone. Top end down a slight bit area-wide, basically 18-19” (Kuchera) for everyone.

Kuch is a tad lower than HH , but we'd all still sign as depicted.  taint line at 10pm sunday night cuts Lanco in 1/2, but thermals crash after and save the day.  Trend is a tad warmer, but not unreasonable.  

edit - i see mag just basically said same thing. Smart minds.....:lol:

I take my kid to the Luigi Mangione Memorial McDonalds in Toontown every time we're there after the trampoline park or arcade. I'll consider a statue of where he was sitting similar to the Ronald McDonald statue in front of the old Playplaces victory enough lol.

Blizz is in the lab cooking up this number

Put me down for 12.3 at MDT.

That would bring MDT’s seasonal total to an even 20 inches for the season to date. It also guards against mixing punching a a little further north than anticipated. As @MAG5035 mentioned, it also protects me in case MDT has one of their annual bad measurements.

Lol, certainly not in the 20”+ inch snowstorm department. It’s been since probably 1994 that one of those has happened here in the city itself. ‘96, ‘03, and ‘10 were all 16-18” events and Jan 2016, Dec 2020, and Feb 2021 were about a foot.

A friggin dude hangin out in Fla, is boxin me in w/ .3" wiggle room for the win.  :D.

I hope I'm way off (and low).  Were starting to get close enough and theres enough continuity that I'll be giddy no matter how "off" I am.

You,Wmspt (in Huntingdon) up to Nepa/mahantango/voyager look to be in cat bird seat IMO.  Thermally safe, and prob a bit of lift to help bump yas into the hi end accums. 

Pullin for yas while I take my 13.9 at MDT to da bank.

Canadian looks just a touch better to me at 0Z vs. 12Z.  Still has the primary into Pitt and sleet into Lanco, but I thought the progression was an ever so slight improvement.

agreed.  Slight improvement from 12z.  CAD did its thing and only twds end did we taint down here.  Goalposts are narrowing, and were all still in them.

Good enough for me to sleep on.

Hoping Euro ticks a touch colder (which seems like general consensus of 0z so far).  Runnin outta ticks till bomb goes off.  

gnight kids.

Just cause some of us love and want snow often, doesnt mean we expect the biggest totals.  

He...like me....enjoys the thrill of the chase and enjoy the chatter on the board.  I think, he like me, doesnt  care if were ever the highest total.  We just like snow. 

Yall can fight over the biggest numbers.  :D

speaking of kooky numbers, tug webcams have shown it snowing for the last 4 days.  Soon we get ours and will be lookin similar to them.

My total I went with is a lot higher than my actual expectation. It's more of a gamble and what I want. This may be another controversial statement, but I would be perfectly happy with nineteen inches less than what I went with. That's how much I really love the snow man.
