Moments likes this remind me that non-weather people really don’t like the word sleet. My husband has stopped calling it hail… he’s now just calling it ice.

Sounds like a decent mix between freezing rain and sleet, primarily freezing rain at the moment? Between Coatesville and Glenmoore. Very slippery

Hate to be in Poconal for this one. Have to imagine this puts them back to zero for the season.

I sent ChatGPT these 2 images… I asked it to make me a forecast snow accumulation map. Here’s what we’re looking at on the ChatGPT model. This is also my official forecast.

Are we approaching the skull phase of the storm?

East Cost snob here, long time Philly lurker, traveling to ORD morning of 22nd and staying in Evanston visiting family through the 27th. Was feeling disappointed we would be missing out on the snowstorm on the east coast as previously modeled but feeling encouraged now that things are looking juicy out here for when we’ll be in town. Not too familiar with Chicagoland weather patterns and snowstorm evolution. First and foremost, curious if we should consider moving our flights to the evening of the 21st to avoid potential travel impacts or if we’d be safe chancing a 10am arrival on the 22nd. Also curious to know what thoughts are on this system as depicted by the recent model runs with those Kuchera maps spitting out 1-2 feet. Are we getting close to any reality yet and is this a typical setup for a classic storm out this way? Everything on the east coast is a thread the needle event and 99 times out of 100, we forget the needle altogether. How tempered should my expectations be at this point or can I start getting excited? Thanks! -Philly Weenie

Holy hell.

That sliver west of DC runs the gamut…. It’s just perpetually starting to snow for 15 hours.

Is…is it…self aware?

If you looked at the radar right now, and then listened to the after-snow sounds out there …in Drexel Hill/Havertown, you would think you could lookout and see a couple inches of snow on the ground. Nothin but a long time ago evaporated trace.

Implications of any sort?

Okay, many models pointing to a decent+ event, yet not even a WWA. Is a little chaos on the horizon? Is NWS all-in on the NAM/ICON solution?

November 28th, shortly after midnight

Where have I seen this before? #delcosnowholestrikesagain Are we just living the new normal for the foreseeable future?
