Itstrainingtime

Yeah...back to 4 hour games...

I absolutely love Canderson. Other than his baseball team.

Today is one of those rare days that gets me jacked as a weather guy- my temp was 26 at 10am and 4 hours later it's 19. Love it!

Temp - I didn't make it below freezing even here until well after midnight. As I posted above I had very little on my sidewalk and driveway.

It came through here as well.

3 measurements yielded an average of 4.5" here in Maytown. Everything was encased in white and made for a true Hallmark scene. Only had about 1" on the driveway so no shoveling was required. That was my only disappointment.

Since congratulations on 2 months of sobriety. I was in a bad place back in 1994. I was 29 but making good decisions in life. I needed to make a change. After a lot of counseling and a ton of support I walked away from alcohol on 7/17/1994. There are times when it's not easy but I have so many blessings in my life and I don't want to lose it for a bottle. Wishing you the best each and every day. My road has caved but I'm still at 32.4

Agree 100%. I still firmly believe I will do well. The perfectionist in me is frustrated that I'm losing precip to warm temps. I still have completely wet roads and just a slushy coating on the grass.

What was your high today? I got up to 41.

I had rain at the onset but just snow and sleet for the past hour.

This was my concern this morning. Despite having snow and sleet falling for the past 90 minutes it is just now starting to accumulate. Temp is still above freezing at 33.

Oh absolutely! I just had to laugh at that particular depiction.

Lanco screw zone. Gotta be right.

MU says it's here between 6-8pm.

Overcast and 39.6 here currently.

5" in 24 hours? I think?

Any concerns about us losing a couple of hours to rain or mix? With precip moving in during the early evening hours, you and me are likely going to be at least several degrees above freezing.

I honestly do not remember the last time Lanco jacked. It's been at least several years.

Elliott agrees - as little as a coating to 1" across Franklin and Perry counties up to 5" in eastern parts of Lancaster.

As @MAG5035 just alluded to, CTP is confident in the map they released below for western PA. They are far less confident in what happens in the SE overnight tomorrow.

So we're tracking a potential snowfall arriving in less than 36 hours and yet are bickering/sarcastic over what the high temp will be 13 days from now? Come on guys. We're better than this. And both of you are likely getting snow tomorrow/early Sunday as well.

That storm you mention on the 26th was one on the list of heartaches in my life. After getting three 16"+ storms earlier in the season, that storm on the 26th was looking like it had the potential to not only be storm #4 to deliver 16"+ but possibly end up the biggest of them all, but left most of us in the LSV squarely in the screw zone. It hurt, but what had already happened earlier in the season took some of the sting off: https://www.weather.gov/phi/02252010wss

I wish that I could actually help by answering your question though...what CTP is saying is "late evening" arrival?

Are you in that good of running/endurance shape? That's a pretty long run, especially round trip.

@Mount Joy Snowman you will appreciate this I'm sure (and so may some others as well): At 8:00AM on February 11th 2010 I had an average snow depth in my yard of 41". That was by far the deepest snow cover I've seen in my life. February 11th was a sunny day with a high of 32.7 degrees. My snowpack at 6:00PM that evening was 32". After a sunny and 36 degree day on February 12th my snowpack was at 20" at 6:00PM that evening. In less than 48 hours I lost over half of my snowpack without the temp even reaching 40 degrees. A combination of compaction, sublimation and melting destroyed the record snow cover. Much is argued about every year about snow accumulating in the last half of winter due to sun angle. I think it's been proven that rates will overcome that well into March as long as temps are also supportive. Having said that, LOSING snow cover is a huge deal on sunny days in February due to that very sun angle. It's very hard to maintain snow cover unless there is ice built into the pack. This is where a period of sleet can do wonders for us if we can get past the fact that it's diminishing our accumulating snow...in the long run, that sleet is giving our white gold staying power. I always try and remember that when heartache sets in with the onset of pingers... At any rate, that is why I covet snow at this time of year.
