Good, euro can keep it's QPF. 

Last thing I need is an inch of rain on top of a glacier (4" depth with 1.5" QPF locked up in it).

anyone tell @PhineasC that was an earthquake that woke him up this AM?

We're going to need your liquid it looks like, because the PWM precip sensor is hosed. Claiming over 5" for the day.

I did swap guages as soon as it flipped around 145 this AM, so feel confident in my amounts.

Ha. That was supposed to be 0.62" rain, not 0.61" but I can give you guys a rundown when I call later just to make we have it all straight.

The funny thing is that it may last longer than last Saturday's fluff bomb.

Finally some sad little flakes mixing in....

certainly will!  It's double the QPF this go around.  The pack went, per daily 7AM obs, from 11" to 9" to 8" to 7" to 4" to 2" before we started accumulating again.

Not a single flake of snow here; sleet of varying intensity all day with surface temps in the low 20s. Maybe an inch of accumulation?

yeah my last measurement brought us up to 1.5" sleet on 0.88" liquid.  And that was on top of 0.61" rain.

disgusting.

Getting a big push of WAA right now.

Will that push east or is cold air starting to drain down the coastal plain?

just think, that's like an extra two weeks that you don't have to deal with your lawn!

GFS is probably the fastest at 9 PM for getting sub-freezing, and NAMs/HRRR/RAP are all closer to 11 PM/midnight.

Earlier than I thought.  Late night on the couch instead of an early morning alarm it is!  Thanks.

It's for the combo. Basically frozen precip adding up to 1 inch of QPF.

Still looking at 1-5AM for the flip down here?  Gonna set my alarm an hour earlier than the goalposts just to be sure.

@OceanStWx

Might be too early to ask, so I can check again in 24 hours, but what's the rough window of time you expect PWM to flip from liquid to frozen?

I'll have the cyanide, please.

PWM officially hit blizzard status

Threw a 3rd snowboard out JIC with the wind.  Will average them.   Let's goooo

No.

About as classic a going down with the ship forecast as there ever was. PWM ended up with 2 inches after a blizzard warning was hoisted to Sugarloaf.

I think like 5 or 6 of our warnings verified out of 33. 

Was that the one where York county still ended up with double digits?  That one stung.

Edit: saw your map.  Me and @Digityman were toaster bathin' together on that one.

@Lava Rock @dryslot 

For the first time in a while, I think @tunafish and I are liking being about a mile off the coast....

This helps make up for that all rain event on MLK day, that's for sure.

Noob question:  What impact does confluence have on the storm?

Dry January.   It’s gaining traction 

Between Dry January and No Nut November, December must be very, umm, wet.

Onto the GFS...

Aren't we outside Reggie range?  Or are people looking for changes upstream?
