Another day, another day with winds 15 mph above forecast. Blowing 40. 

I'll say it again and again, I had enough of this wind.

I hope everyone is getting ready for the coldest temperature in Harrisburg since Jan 21, 1994 come this Saturday...

I'm looking forward to it.

It's cold.

My 8.8” of snow/sleet melted down to 1.58” liquid. To get that amount of qpf while sitting in the low teens the whole time and only come away with less than 9” is something else. Man what could have been down this way. Still happy to have a nice solid pack.

If 14” is official that would make @pasnownutthe winner with an entry of 13.9”, just edging out @Itstrainingtime(14.2) who wasn’t even in the state. 

Awesome both these guys deserve it. Snownuts is the only member that's always been respectful and kind to me. And  training is the only person here that if I could take back some of the nasty things that i've said in the past I would. Congratulations fellas.

Let’s start that northwest shift like we did last storm that wouldn’t stop.

Thanks for the kind words. We’re all in this for similar reasons and I’m glad you enjoy what I share. Last week was great and looks like we keep tracking this week also. Looks like that new gear might be gettin a workout next weekend. Enjoy

Not so fast my friends…. Check again… they revised it down to a more realistic 12.5 last night at MDT…

I picked 12.3…so I think that crown belongs to me!

As deep as the trough is it might be some kooky solutions in coming days. 
 

it’s just beautiful out. Been outside pretty much last 2 days  helping neighbors n playin with grandpup. My son plowed for 22.5 hrs straight. Started at 430 yesterday morning. Got to our house at 3:00 this mirning(DIL, grandson and grandpup weathered the storm here) 

1hr ride on sleds to end the day today sunset was a beaut in this awesome winter landscape.

We will need a ruling from @GrandmasterB

18z Euro Op was a tad better than the 12z. Damn, 963mb low…tuck that into the coast and bombs away

Side note, when CTP revised it down to 12.5 for the event, they didn’t revise the month & year to date snow properly. 
Today with the 5 pm summary, the month to date & seasonal snow to date are now all correct.

This is MDT’s first season officially over 20 inches since 2021.

We are now only 10 inches below climo for the season with 2 months still to go to score.

Interesting to adjust. But that matches what I received.
