Blizzard of 93

3.8 in Marysville for my yard. Frustrating storm for sure, but at least most us still ended up with a solid Advisory level storm, but it could have been so much more with a few adjustments. On to the next one! This Thursday is looking like our next chance.

Good night & you should be able to add to your total in the morning with several more hours to go until the snow wraps up towards daybreak. Tomorrow, we get back to tracking the next chapter of this Winter.

Moderate snow in Marysville continues at 11:45 pm. Eyeballing about 2 inches. It looks beautiful outside with snow clinging to everything.

CTP recently updated their discussion.

DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1: Light to moderate snow continues tonight as the western edge of the precip shield from a strong coastal storm impacts central PA. Rain turned to snow across the lower Susq valley around 5 PM. Since sunset, accumulation rates have been near 0.5"/hr in some of the snow bands across portions of the Lower Susq Valley and farther north towards Schuylkill Co. A secondary band in central PA, located within an inverted trough, has been producing snowfall at rates of 0.25-0.5"/hr. Expect similar intensities through about 2-3 AM as easterly isentropic ascent at midlevels is maximized. Still a medium chance (40-70 pct) that 1"/hr rates push into far eastern Lancaster County between midnight tonight and sunrise on Monday, but by and large the heaviest snow bands will miss our CWA to the east. Storm total snow (which includes snow that fell and subsequently melted this AM) is expected to range from 4-8" from Schuylkill Co south into Lancaster County and southeastern York County, with locally higher amounts possible in northeast Lancaster County and the higher terrain of Schuylkill County. Totals of 3-8" still expected in the higher terrain of the central ridge and valley region intersected by the north-south oriented snow band in the inverted trough. Lower amounts at lower elevations and on paved surfaces. Much of the accumulation is over by sunrise Monday, with lighter snow continuing through the morning in spots.

Come on heavier band… keep drifting south…just another 20 miles…you can do it! (now I’m talking to the radar…lol…this storm really has got to me…)

I like the band on radar that looks to be working its way south along Rt. 15 in Snyder & northern Dauphin & Perry county. Hopefully that works its way soon into our area & the Harrisburg area.

Moderate snow with decent flake size continues in Marysville. Eyeballing a little over an inch on the car tops & yard. Roads & sidewalks are covered, but a little less on them due to taking longer to cave.

It should snow all night… See the @MAG5035 post above. The storm is still sitting right along the DelMarVa coast.

Snow has made it back west to @MAG5035 in Blair county. All of that precip will need to work its way back east through early tomorrow morning. We have several hours of snow to go.

MDT last couple of Obs this hour is down to .5 mile visibility and they made it down to 32 degrees.

Side streets have caved in Marysville. Lol, only 12 hours later than I had anticipated last night…

I like seeing radar in the last hour pushing the main precip shield back north & west beyond State College & Altoona. Hopefully we get into some heavier bands before the low exits east overnight.

MDT Is down to 1.25 visibility snow at the Ob update a few minutes ago.

My temp in Marysville finally made it back to 32 with light to moderate snow continuing.
