Haha I'm only 30 so I didn't get to experience 1993 or 1994 or 1950 for that matter. 2010 was our last huge storm and it was awesome since it dropped 21 inches but we didn't have the wind. 2010 was the storm that got me interested in this bloody hobby.

1993 and 1950. We can get the heavy snow 2010, 93, 94 but to get high winds is incredibly difficult.

Man I'm jealous of you guys. We've only seen two storms in the past 75 years that had blizzard conditions and I was either not born or too young to remember them. Very difficult to get blizzard conditions in western PA. Enjoy it and hopefully you get crushed.

yeah looks like maybe an inch or two at most with the northern energy. Maybe just a refreshener before we torch next week.

Yeah I mean there's about a negative 1 trillion percent chance that we bullseye, but we've seen these strong coastals do some weird things. 2016 NAM was the furthest west and even though it fringed us hard it still got precip further west than any other model. Juno literally was gonna be a blizzard in NYC and once again the NAM said nope going east and and it did exactly that. It almost seems like the NAM does well with strong systems even if it's wrong 99.9999% of the time. That's what makes weather fascinating, mother nature does what it wants sometimes. It wasn't 2016 I'm not sure what year it was.

I appreciate your analysis and wisdom but you crush weenies hearts lol.

hey wouldn't be mad at a 4-6 event even if out east got crushed..

Even Pittsburgh would be happy with 4-6 even if out east they get 12+

yeah sucks it won't be us but this is crazy

Also looks like Boston most likely is gonna get nuked this weekend. Idk about 3 foot but strong winds and heavy snow sure look likely.

I meant that northern energy that comes down not the whole storm that forms. I could see like 2 or 3 inches from it.

Yeah maybe the northern energy trends stronger and we score from that. I've been following the big storm and it's funny seeing the back and forth and the wish casting. Long range looks like the pattern breaks down but I wouldn't mind more of an overrunning pattern where moisture rides along a boundary. These super deep troughs are just tough to score especially in this pattern.

Not a terrible winter so far. One more 6-12 storm would make it a great one with a few clippers sprinkled in.

now that is hilarious

This looks likes a classic east coast storm set up. Definitely will track it but every model is locked in on basically New England. Euro and it's ensembles are lock step with each other and both show huge hits. Should be a crazy storm if it panned out like the Euro showed. 959mb low with 3 ft of snow would cripple them. Insane

Yeah we need a lot of help if we want this storm. Honestly give out east the storm instead of coming far enough west to fringe us but not give us anything significant. CMC has a bomb that crushes i95. I'll laugh if the 12z euro shows an inland runner just to troll the Mid-Atlantic and 95 guys.

As expected the models are starting to pull the storm back west. Still need a big tug to hit us but it's something to track.

not to mention two I believe they were 10 inch snow storms last December. For our area that's pretty good. It's very difficult for us to get 12+

Our last 12+ storm was this guy back in march 2018. Still plenty of winter to go

NWS predicted 8-12 and moon recorded 9.1 officially. Just because in your neighborhood you got like 7 or 8 doesn't mean it was a bust.

I'd say if you enjoy winter weather than this was picture perfect day. Snow falling heavy at times during the day. Can't really ask for more. As far as forecasting this was dead on NWS had us 2-3 with Butler country 4 or 5 and that's exactly what happened. Are we really gonna complain over two inches. It's not like 2016 where we got 4 inches and just southeast got 12+.

maybe another decent one too this week.

seems like I have a solid fluffy 1.5 inches here.

No you weren't you were forecasted 6-12 and they decided to up it at the last minute to 10-12. Their original 6-12 was fine. You just cry about every single inch of snow.

you suck
