Blizzard of 93

This season has especially proven to not be too concerned beyond week 2 or 3, and even then, changes have been happening in day 7 to 10. Just yesterday the punters were out until after mid January, but now we might be getting back into business in 10 days or so.

Speaking of week 3 on the latest Euro Weeklies… Today’s run for week 3 shows a decent general look, below normal temperatures & a good amount of precip.

Weeklies have generally proved to be about worthless, especially beyond week 3. Heck, we keep seeing changes for week 2.

2 out of 3 ain’t bad… Also, @CAPE posted a good look on the GEFS a little earlier for around the 12th.

12z EPS & 12z Canadian ensemble also are indicating that we should be back in the tracking business in the day 10 to 15 period.

Same plan here! Watching the parade & football later on.

Agreed, that’s what I’m going with as well. Unfortunately I slept through the squall, but it was great to wake up to this first day of the year! Happy New Year everyone!

Here are CTP’s thoughts for tomorrow. By the mid to late afternoon (New Years Eve), a wave of low pressure will drift eastward across the Great Lakes, and drag an Arctic front south through the Commonwealth. Underneath a favorable left exit region of an upper jet, this front could produce a threat of snow squalls late Wednesday evening into the New Year. Current expectation is that the front and associated snow squall threat will move into northwest PA in the 6-8PM timeframe and then race southeast, crossing the I-99 corridor between 10PM and midnight and then getting into the Lower Susquehanna Valley between midnight and 2AM. Anyone planning to travel for the New Year should be prepared for the risk of snow squalls. If a Snow Squall Warning is issued, delay travel or exit the highway at the next opportunity.

It is relentless!

A few bouts of light snow showers on & off the last few hours between Harrisburg & Marysville. Oh, it’s also windy here. I’m not looking forward to finding my trash can tomorrow am, lol!

The January 8th/9th period is looking even more interesting. Great potential showing on the 12z Canadian & 18z GFS.

The 18z Euro still has the New Year’s Day clipper that gives many of us 1 to 2 inches of potential snow.

I’m ready for something like this 12z Euro run for 1/9 to verify.

It’s a good look & the key is that it is sustainable.
