The three days was just what he was saying. I doubt we'd get that many days of snow, unless it was just flurries with the occasional shower, like the last few days. At least there is still time to figure it out, and hope for some snow.

Almost three days of snow, for next to nothing is miserable.

Ron Smiley, on KDKA, said this next system would start as rain Friday, transition to snow Saturday, and last through Monday, but that he thinks over those three days with snow we could get...1 inch. 1 whole inch with snow falling over two or so days!

But even with a low that far away to the east, how would it be warm enough for rain? I mean come on. How do we win?

NWS said they got 1.1" out of the first wave. The main wave, so far looks a little more liquid than snow.

Big surprise to wake up to around 1.5"-2" of snow this morning. Hopefully, everyone got that, but there were a lot of accidents in just my neighborhood, but looks great. Hopefully this does hold the cold in a little more for tonight and tomorrow morning, to maybe slow the change over. Also, does seem they upped totals for tomorrow. Had just over 2" this morning, up from 1-2" last night.

Nice band coming through now! Fat flakes too.

4-6 is a miracle though, so I wouldn't even complain, lol. But I agree, if we get 1-2" I'd be surprised.

A few models did seem to trend in our direction recently. Still staying very pessimistic, but it looked to be somewhat improved.

Thanks. Yeah, we definitely live in a tough spot. I won't say we don't have good seasons, as I did a calculation of the last ten and the average snow was just under 50", so about 9" above the thirty year average. The last four seasons have been overall lean, with the exception of 17-18, but the beginning of the decade more than balanced it out. This is another lean year though for sure. Very frustrating. Even the last ten Januaries have averaged 15.7", over 4' above average, with 1 average, 1 below average and the other 8 all above average, we were bound for a below average one, I guess. Hopefully, next season is ours again, and I'll look forward to watching it unfold with you all.

Hi everybody, I'm new here. From Pittsburgh, all my life, and love weather. I like my seasons to be what they are supposed to be, winter to be cold and snowy, spring, mild turning warm, and sunny, summer sunny and hot, and fall cool and sunny with snow chances towards the end. I was on a different board, and grew very tired of the way they ran it and how they handled the way people felt about patterns. I read through a few pages here and feel like the Pittsburghers have a place to vent. There wasn't one over there, we were pretty much dismissed. I'm not an expert by any means, so I try to learn, but I'm just glad that I will have a place to commiserate or celebrate with a larger group of people.
