18Z GFS is 0.75”+ QPF here through h90 with temps <30

Don't have 500mb maps, but found this one in a folder on my hard drive. Looks like a much better high for that storm.

GFS is 1.00"+ QPF here, all frozen. Where do I sign ?

Decent gusty snow shower moving through here has laid down a dusting on most surfaces. 32 degrees.

I thought StormVista was supposed to have realistic clown maps? TT has my yard at 1/2" and the map Metfan posted has 12".

I just lost an inch of ice from 12Z

2" at DCA and 10" in RIC

1040 mb high over the southern end of James Bay is beautiful.

lol 360-372 Right where we want it.

12Z PARA-GFS in fantasy range has an historic snowstorm for the coastal areas of SC, on par with Christmas 1989.

I measured close to that on 2/7/2018 and it was a hell of a mess. Brought down large trees all over our neighborhood.

It isn't even done at that point. 24+ hours of freezing rain with temps in the mid- to upper 20's and more than 1" QPF would definitely leave a mark. Glad it will change in the coming week.

Looks like a significant ice storm out this way on the 12Z GFS.

I would take it just as modeled. Nice blustery cold shot behind it too, with a 967mb low in the Berkshires.

We are on 4 acres on a private road. You can find a lot of properties like that in this area but I would still say to try to find one in the Spring Mills school district if you end up coming near here. A majority of the folks who live on our street bought their homes when they were built in the late 1970s. Their kids are grown and gone, so with only a few exceptions our kids haven’t had many other kids around the neighborhood growing up. We’ve tried to keep them involved in athletics, school clubs and scouts so they didn’t feel too isolated.

I live 3 miles west of 81 in a rural area, surrounded by farms and orchards. When we moved here from Suburban Md. in 2006 there weren’t many amenities nearby. In the past several years though, a great deal of development has taken place a few miles to our south in an area called Spring Mills (off I-81 Exit 20.) I would definitely check it out. Three new schools were built there, including Spring Mills HS, which is a great school. I would rank it at the top for schools in Berkeley County. Our daughter graduates from there this Spring. A great many new single-family homes and townhouses are being built there also, along with two medical facilities that recently opened, and with so much retail now nearby it has really blossomed into a nice community. If you have questions during your search, please feel free to reach out to me via PM. (My name is Craig.) Good luck !

I was in NYC for that December '92 event. Incredible storm in the city. Winds gusting to near hurricane strength. Waves at the Battery that came over the sea walls, and the FDR underwater. Lost power where I was staying for most of a day.

I adopted a 72-hour rule for getting invested years ago, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made as far as coping with being a weenie.

I always expect at least a light snowfall when true arctic air masses arrive. Seems to be the case most of the time in our area.

My 6th grader opted for the "BRICK" option to attend school at the beginning of Fall. Lasted 6 weeks, until our state's county color code reached orange and then red and schools were shuttered. Now, 6 weeks of virtual learning later and with 90% of WV counties meeting the closure metric, it has been decided to abandon color codes altogether and resume school, except for high school. He is thrilled to get back to a classroom. My high school senior who opted for the "CLICK" choice and who is also working full-time has had a stable year of virtual education. She has also been accepted to a college next Fall, but who knows what that will look like by then ? It really feels like here they have just been making it up as they go along, regardless of the incidence of cases. I'm sure the teachers feel as twisted as the kids at this point.

25th anniversary of that storm this week. Maybe the UK can nail another one.

I wonder how differently Philadelphia might have approached tonight’s game if they had played in front of a stadium full of rowdy Iggles fans ?

I chased the January 2017 event also. Picked Virginia Beach as they were under a blizzard watch. Found a great cabin at First Landing State Park and 55 mph gusts on the beach across the road. Hiked the cypress swamps in pouring snow. Beautiful trip.
