Itstrainingtime

What I remember most is that the NAM was the first model to really focus on incredible totals near and along the 81 corridor in PA while some of the "varsity" models were focused further south. The NAM gave the Euro and others a little edumacation that event.

I remember as a teen reading that our general area got a 12" snowfall about once a decade. I think between 2010 and 2019 we had at least 5...the 3 on the chart above plus the 2 big March storms.

Talk about big snowstorms happening much more frequently lately - MU just posted this today. Glean at your discretion... MU Weather Center Since 1926, @millersvilleu has only received 8 snowstorms of 18" or greater. Here they are! Jan. 7-8, 1996: 30.0" Jan. 22-23, 2016: 26.7" Feb. 16-18, 2003: 25.5" Feb. 11-12, 1983: 24.0" Feb. 5-6, 2010: 24.0" Feb. 15-16, 1958: 20.0" Feb. 9-10, 2010: 19.0" Mar. 13-14, 1993: 18.0"

Although I'll likely never see a storm exactly like March 1993 again, a wound up triple phased monster is something that I yearn for. And if it means I mix over at some point while areas west get obliterated with feet of snow, so be it. I'd just like to experience something close to the Superstorm again in my life. I honestly think that even though March 1993 was dubbed the 100 year storm, I think the odds are at least decent that there is a wound up monster sometime sooner than later.

Right? Thanks for affirming what I was thinking and beating me to the keyboard. LOL

I am really confused with this post - I just spent a lot of time going back through this thread and I see NONE of what you're talking about. Many of us acknowledge that the next couple of weeks don't look good at all (you said the same thing) but I think everyone is universally hopeful/encouraged by what's coming thereafter. Did you even read our thread? If so...

@mahantango#1 - you take some amazing pictures of your beautiful landscape/countryside...thank you very much for sharing them with us.

Admittedly, I have been a big critic of #21 for years. Look, he is putting together an incredible season. One of the best I've witnessed since starting following the NBA regularly in 1976. He is doing it all. But...he needs to show up in the postseason. 2 points in the 2nd half of an elimination game is not acceptable. He doesn't need to score 70 but he has to produce SOMETHING, otherwise the murmurs will only get louder.

@canderson - MU just shared this: After a blustery and frigid weekend, southwesterly winds on the backside of a high pressure system centered over the Outer Banks will usher a more seasonable air mass back into the Lower Susquehanna Valley today. The moderating trend will continue throughout the week, and high temperatures should reach the low-to-mid 40s both Tuesday and Wednesday. Clouds will increase Tuesday in advance of an approaching disturbance and its associated warm front. Patchy drizzle or freezing drizzle may develop later Tuesday night, but more widespread showers or periods of steadier, light rain should hold off until Wednesday. There could be slick spots on secondary roadways, bridges, and overpasses during the Wednesday morning commute. Rainfall amounts through Wednesday evening are expected to remain under one half of an inch, so flooding won't be a concern despite the addition of gradual snowmelt.

Something "fun" to watch - set up looks conducive for a sneaky very warm day.

No specifics, but on CTP's homepage the hydrology tab shows no or the most insignificant rises...at least on the main stem. Graph shows the river staying WELL below even the action stage. Rainfall will occur over several days plus the snow pack has a relatively low water content. Not an issue at all it seems.

Just realized that MU is calling for highs in the 60s here on Friday.

Thank you for bringing this up - I was thinking about it on the way in to the office this morning. I'm concerned for sure. This "opportunity" is flying under the radar, big time. Not likely, but if precip moves in earlier than expected which it often does...look out.

Just want to add that our very own Americanwx forum has a poster that lives in Davis WV. I feel bad for you - your team outplayed SF and deserved better. Part of the cruel reality of sports where the team that plays the best isn't always rewarded. And I feel sick for Bills fans...how much can one fan base suffer?

12 this morning in Maytown.

Thanks - downstairs dining for us. Sounds somewhat similar to the taverns in Colonial Williamsburg.

How was it? We hear good things about it from over our way.

People have waited a long time for a powder day to ski and board. To get a day like this on a Saturday after the last couple of winters...easy to see coming. Roundtop had 5 trails open to start the week. Today they have 18 open. Also - Tubing just opened which brings families not into skiing.

Talk about forecasting and longer range pattern recognition...there was a lot of talk for weeks about a big time wintry window opportunity centered on about the 1/12 to 1/22 time-frame...it delivered.

I had consecutive mornings of temps below -20. Today, it's noteworthy if temps drop to 0. Seemed a little more pedestrian 30 years ago.

I thought the same thing last evening.

Very consistent with CarlislePaWx measurement.

4.3" of new snow total that fell. Actual snow depth OTG after last night's fun was 4.7". I do not melt down for QPF from snow but the fluff factor in that band was very high - much higher than what fell during the day.

I received just over .4" last night. Elliott picked up 1.4" at his crib in Central York. Beautiful dendrites last night- my goodness.

Pouring big, beautiful dendrites!
