The Iceman

Yeah but the WAA snows way overperformed to make up for it. We were all sleet in levittown 30 mins ago but not have changed back to 50/50 snow sleet. The sleet is accumulating quickly too. Up to 7" in Levittown. Curious how I'm doing up in Hopewell. My guess is 4-5". Haven't set up a webcam to my snowboard like ray yet.... That's next year's project

Super weird , I thought we were flipping, but it just went back to big fat flakes. Very unusual for levittown to be snow and nw to be sleet. Officially measured 6.5 here.

Just got to Levittown, easily 7-8" here, haven't officially measured yet but back to dumping all snow after a period of 50/50 snow sleet. Unbelievable storm!

Still doing some things at the office keep getting distracted for some reason... Should be over there though in the next hour or so

We've gone over to graupel here in Trenton. Poor snow growth at the moment but still coming down at a decent rate.

Heavy stuff should continue until 1-2 pm but then coastal will take over and more light precip will develop this afternoon into tonight. Still a long ways to go!

Sleet line looks nearly stationary on the mason dixon line based on the CC radar. Waffling back an forth around chester it looks like. Great to see.

Heaviest snow of the storm in Trenton. Huge clumps falling from the sky, easy 1-2" hour rates. Temp at 23f.

Yeah be careful, the powdery snow combined with the little bit of graupel and temps in the low 20s... Things are slippery for sure but luckily I have a jeep. Safe travels man.

Drove to Trenton to grab something from the office I forgot yesterday Route 31 was mostly wet, little bit of slush, but overall very manageable. Once you get into trenton though... What a disaster. Looks to be about 4-5" here. Heavy snow. Next stop Lower Makefield.

Sounds like bensalem/langhorne/bristol area are the early winners right now. Maybe an outside shot at a foot if things continue as they are?

The fatties have begun flying in Hopewell. Very picturesque. 22F.

Crazy gradient so far, I'm about 10 miles north and have half of that. That band to the south is really producing! Also, appears people are seeing higher than 10:1 ratios.

CC shows the sleet line being beaten back south down towards the pa/de border the last few frames. Interesting.

Wow!! May have to take a trip down to lower bucks. My brother in lower makefield said he's getting raked and has over 3" so far. Best banding has been south of me so far in Hopewell, only about an inch here.

Finding it difficult to sleep tonight, I guess it's the pre-storm jitters anyway down to 20 degrees in my backyard. Starting to cloud up now from what I could tell when I stepped outside for a smoke.

Man looking at the national radar, that moisture flow out of the gulf is serious... We may have an overperformer if thermals hold imo really like the look though

I know it's the HRRR but it has the mix line way south of PHL, down at the jersey shore at 18z and still snowing hard. Very interesting! Edit: Like @hazwoper and I were discussing above, changeover to sleet along 95 doesn't occur until rates lighten.

Down to the forecasted low of 21 already. Are temps supposed to rise overnight? Seems like it's a bit colder than anticipated.

We were on the same page, appreciate you explaining what I meant when I posted the 18z nam map earlier. I don't see an early flip though either unless like you said rates let up. I think we snow HARD from 9 am - noon. I'm thinking this one will be a pleasant surprise for most and the thump will out do any changeover woes.

Yeah between the pack I have remaining (roughly 5" rock solid after today) and the layer of sleet/freezing rain we should get towards the end of tomorrow after another 5-6", I'm feeling pretty good about having snow cover the entire month of Feb. Would have never predicted that going into this winter. In fact, has there been any long range forecaster that nailed this winter? Just goes to show how far we need to still go in that area. There were a lot of well respected mets and amateurs that pooped the bed this year in the long range. But it's a good bust down this way so no one cares

Latest HRRR has the sleet line well south of PHL at 17z... Just saying

Are we using this thread for OBS or should someone start a new thread for that? Anyway we have clear skies here in Hopewell and temps are dropping like a rock. Temp is already down to 24 here and the forecasted low is 22. Seems like we are going to get down into the teens unless we cloud up soon. Anyone else radiating down temp wise this evening?

TT clown map... This is all pre changeover
