Itstrainingtime

Most likely scenario for the LSV looks like maybe an inch or two on Saturday?

This. My grass is WHITE this morning - all of that rain water froze overnight and the ground looks very wintry. Also, very dense fog in low lying areas especially along the river.

Someone better tell CTP because they have me at 56 on Monday which is 5 degrees AN, and then in the low 60s starting Tuesday which is a +10.

We have had a lot of issues - too far north, too far west, too far east, not cold enough, etc. I slightly disagree about today's event specific to my area regarding temps and rates. Heavier rates simply lowered my temp from the upper 30s (it was 38 and raining steadily when I left for work) to the mid 30s during the most intense periods of snow. If we would have been say 35-36 and fell to 33 or so, it would have been a different story. @CarlislePaWx was holding at 32.9 I believe for a good portion of the event - I'll be interested to hear how much QPF he had to see if he had more snow because he had lower temps and or higher QPF.

I had .62" of rain today. That's a solid amount of precip and yet my temp never fell below 35 at home. Perhaps in your area the issue was rates, but down here it was definitely more about the temperature. (to clarify - there were times when it was all snow but not sticking with temps in the mid 30s) If it had been a few/several degrees colder, I would have had more snow and more stickage.

He could have somewhat tenuously called victory today but I think he's seeing the writing on the wall...

Well I'll be doggoned - look who's getting excited for Saturday... 2/2 ..from the 40s around sunrise into the 20s during the afternoon, resulting in "flash freezes" & roadways turning icy, snow-packed, & slippery. Wind gusts of 50-60 mph will accompany the Arctic front & persist into Sat night, leading to downed trees/powerlines & power outages. 19m MU Weather Center@MUweather 1/2 I'll be talking more about the Saturday storm tomorrow, but it's becoming increasingly likely that the two pieces of energy mentioned in Monday's SWD will join forces at "just the right time & place" to bring an accumulating snow event to southeastern PA. Temps will plunge..

You make a good point. Man, if it didn't take you long to feed on my bait. LOL I have no idea who bought my tickets for the Mavs game but I did "pretty well" on said transaction... Luka was feisty the other night.

I'm ready. Turned down a LOT of money to sell my seats. I gouged a poor Mavericks fan blind for next week's game so that I'll feel better about going tomorrow. Besides, my wife and I are on a roll now. We've seen 6 wins in our last 7 trips. Got to keep the momentum going!

I just wish it wasn't 1pm - but with rates and temps it can still work...

In a meeting and can't look myself but that's intriguing...

Until 2016, WE are the Chicago Cubs... "Wait until next year"

Just talked to my wife a few miles down the road from you and it's snowing there as well. All rain here at work for the past couple of hours.

That would be a great finale - snow and then extreme cold. Is it too much to ask? I'm still intrigued...

The cold coming this weekend is impressive. I wish we'd have fresh snow cover to maximize the overnight lows.

It will be interesting to see if MU records any measurable snowfall. I work about 5 miles west of the campus and there was nothing on the lowlands in this area - me thinks it will go down as a trace.

They bring a false sense of joy to some only to be replaced with sorrow and disappointment 90% of the time.

Very true. I wasn't really invested in today that much mostly because the positive snow depth maps were all hideous. Just another reason why someone doesn't like those snow maps...they don't tell the whole story. Or at least an accurate one. That's all I will say as I do NOT want to lecture or act like a know it all - I certainly don't. But I do know not to trust snow maps. On to Saturday.

Good stuff, and thank you so much! Here on top of Turkey Hill, we had only the slightest of coatings...more like a white haze actually. Plain rain even here now.

Please report back on your findings. This is serous biz.

Drover over Chickies about 45 minutes ago - snowing very hard on top of the hill with zero rain mixed near the summit, but nothing visible on the ground even at the top. (again, slightly dated info :))

Couple of inches this morning possible at Whitetail?

Just saw this map - I can tell you with certainty that in Lanco, based on my driving this morning, that is pretty much spot on! Higher hills of southern Lanco (including work) are getting some wet snow, and also the higher elevations of northern Lanco, but a lot of rain elsewhere.

Maytown: 36.3 with a 80/20 rain/snow mix according to Mrs. Training Work: 35.4 with a 50/50 mix MU: they're currently reporting 40 and I'd assume all rain

All rain here in Maytown.
