We have just been NAM’d. 4-6” for most of us, jackpot zones of 6-8” scattered around SE PA.

I don't like being NAM'd and jackpotted at the same time.

I was planning on using the leaf blower to clear snow tomorrow. I may have to go into the deepest, darkest recesses of my garage and look for my long, lost, rarely used shovel.

I'm leaning that way, lol.

These mesos just keep beefing up totals. 19z HRRR is a widespread 5-7” with isolated 8” spots throughout SE PA, from Philly through the burbs up to the Lehigh Valley. My 2-4” call for the Allentown area might be too low, when at this time yesterday I was wondering if it would be too high!

Looks like the Blue Mountain is going to be the cutoff between a good plowable snow southeast, and more of a nuisance variety one on the northern side.

"Heavy snow expected". Ehh...not really. I don't consider 3-5" heavy snow. Moderate snow would be more appropriate.....

41F/Cloudy

That wording is tied to the hazard. In this case, a warning. 

[The Iceman]

This should be called the little clipper that could. Wild how we’ve gone from 1-3” with lolli’s on 4-5 to now 3-5 with lollis of 8”. With how fast moving this is, I don’t think the heavy snow wording in the forecast is far off. We should rip between 2 and 6 am. Who else is staying up? 

[RedSky]

Its a drought and a clipper keeps juicing this is a Christmas miracle

[NJHurricane]

I’m always skeptical when there is a modeled snow gap in South Central PA with these clippers, but maybe this is one time it works out for the Delaware Valley 

[The Iceman]

It’s beautiful

Its a tough call period. Banding could be an issue as the  S Mountain area favors that the last few years. I got nearly 16 inches a few years ago while other got less than 6 inches. Either way it goes, the snow will immediately stick given given how cold it is right now. The big tell, is how cold and dry it is right now 14 degrees at my house with dew points in the single digits.  That is a hell of lot of dry air to overcome in this typical alberta clipper. I expect a lot of virga. That is why this event is a wait and see game if the moisture gets more involved with this clipper before the shortwave digs in off the coast. 

still holding on 3 to 5 inches  at my house where the snow does not band as the LP digs in. S Mtn range looks like the jackpot in the latest runs. If banding occurs  between 2 -5 am - 2 inch hour rates are possible.  Someone is going to get smacked in our area.

mPing reports have snow reaching the ground in the Harrisburg area. Doesn't seem to be too much virga. 36f and cloudy. Feels like snow!

Its dark now snow should start any time

My wife just brought the snowlamp out to the porch, and given the radar I turned it on, and lo and behold, snowflakes! Just a few, but still. 38F here at the.moment.

35F/Cloudy

Temp down to 40F on the beach in Point Pleasant, NJ. Light breeze out of the W. Overcast. 

[JTA66]

No bread, milk or eggs but I hit the liquor store pretty hard .

[penndotguy]

34f Dp26 cloudy skies

[Kevin Reilly]

Cloudy first flakes a few flurries at the moment 36f dewpoint 25f so I guess zero rain here let the games begin!  Looks like though dry air punching in from the southwest so these flakes are just temporary as everything is pulling off to the northeast. 

 

Drove up from Delaware along Route 202 to Pyle Road to Foulk Road saw the first flakes along that route as well and continued till I go home in Media. 

[Physicsteve]

Yep first flakes and no rain here near washington crossing 

[Hurricane Agnes]

Saw ya'lls reports and was skeptical for here given the radar is green over the city and looked out front and flakes!

Temp is currently 37 with dp 28.
