Mammoth Mountain in the Sierra is expected to receive 2' to 3' of snow today and tomorrow...no biggie when they're over 600" for season, right? I find it amusing that with that amount of snow coming, all that warrants up there is a Winter Weather Advisory. We get a WWA for 2 to 3 INCHES. -
It's the kind of setup for temperature extremes... I had 17 at home. My 12 mile drive to work saw the temp fluctuate between 12 and 21 degrees. Snowpack in my yard ranges from 3" up to 7" with bare ground surrounding trees.

17 this morning...pedestrian cold.

Count me in as a NAM fan. One thing I've noticed over the years is it seems to sniff out southern storms coming north first. If other guidance is a whiff south but the NAM is consistently north, a lot of times it leads the way. Caveat: I am only speaking about true southern stream, "Miller A" storms.
-
17" last year on 3/22/2018. Just saying. I'd be more than a little surprised if we're done yet.
-
This is all so, so true... Do models take into account situations like yesterday when we had 3+ hours of light to moderate snow with NO accumulation? I was thinking about that this morning...how much would we have gotten if the storm would have moved in at 6pm and snowed until 6am this morning? Honestly, truly i probably lost at least 2" yesterday afternoon to "white rain."
-
I'll be happy with some cloud cover to keep the sun at bay for a while...
-
It really was. Just under 11" for me since Thursday. I'm over climo for the winter. And I think we get more....
-
I agree 100%...hence why my call for my area was for 2" - 5". I was commenting this morning on what my ground truth was versus what models were showing.
-
Correct...almost every model had all of Lanco at 6"+. I had 4". But as i said earlier this morning most of Lanco did better than me. It's all perspective from how your back yard did.
-
I ended up with just over 4". Certainly not 5 or 6". Regardless, the Euro was constantly showing 7-8" amounts for me and the Canadian was even higher. And both of those and probably a few other were striping the heaviest snows east of the Susquehanna. We were talking all weekend in here that Lancaster (especially northern) might end up the winner in this general area. It didn't. That was my only point. Every storm has little surprises within the envelope of the bigger picture.
-
As long as the parade of storm continues and there's cold air around, we gotta have chances...
-
And that's why i never get too invested in models...how many were targeting my area with the highest amounts? Quite a few. Every storm is unique, every storm brings with it surprises, both good and bad. And in March...there's always extra wild cards involved. By the way, I do NOT think we're done yet. In fact i wouldn't be surprised if we get more than one more snow. I'm surprised at how bearish you are...
-
Beautiful drive this morning...lots of low hanging wires above roadways as well. Hopefully the snow falls/melts before the winds bring them down...
-
I was thinking about this on the way in to work this morning, when was the last time we cleared off 3 measurable snowfalls in a 5 day period? That is very impressive!
-
I ended up with 4"...kicking myself this morning for not sticking to my original call of 2" - 5" for our area. Looking at reports I might have been at the low end for the county...looks like most areas received 5"+ so there's that...
-
Yep...sure has.
-
It's dumping here. I like to make official observations but I'll allow myself that one.
-
Just a hair under 3" here so far. Any early thoughts on next weekend? I'll be asked in the next day or two...
-
I just came in and was surprised how little is still accumulating on my street.
-
Thanks...that's close enough.
-
Keep us posted on that mix line if you can. SN and 31.2 here.
-
You as well! Good stuff should be here in the next 90 minutes give or take.
-
-SN, 32.4 degrees. At least for now the intensity has dropped off.
-
Moderate snow here was borderline heavy a bit ago. Just now I'm starting to see a trace of snow on non-paved surfaces.
