Real nice 3 hours in Cranberry - about 2” that mostly fell in 2 hours.
Missed the first batch to the north, and that warm surge shut things off earlier than I would have liked. Roads cleared up pretty quick too.
I’m still pretty optimistic. Granted, I’m 25 miles north of the city, but I think there is a decent chance for 3-4”…with the bonus of nice rates and daytime.
I’m about 10 feet on the good side of the NAM (SE extreme of its 5”-7” swath). But no room for error and agonizingly close for others.
That initial push of moisture to the north is annoying. Hopefully that is wider (and/or) sets up farther south.
Sweet spot looked to be East Liverpool with around 4”. I got about 2.5”. That evening batch came together nicely, and lingered a bit overnight.
Hopefully we can go thump to dry slot Wed.
These bands keep reforming NW of the city. I’m on the eastern side of it, but snowing pretty good again. Wouldn’t be suprised to see some 3” totals in Beaver county.
The key to squeezing out a couple inches today could be these temps.
The forecast temps are higher than the models but the obs this morning are tracking a bit lower. That might be a bit weenish, but I’m saying there is a chance.
Maybe I got a little more, but if this is 1.2”, it’s the most impactful 1.2” I’ve ever seen. Roads look like there was a foot (in terms of impact, that is).
If they are measuring in an open area, that snow went somewhere else.
I guess the wind is screwing us - lol. Not sure how you do a depth if you mostly have under an inch, but have a nice drift too.
Most people that tried to measure reported between 1-2”.
Wonder if the average person knows that the wind chill calculation changed. They might be saying “in my day we had 50 below”
well…this is it. That’s like -50 with the old calc
Not sure the last time we spent an afternoon below zero. Even some mornings in recent winters that it got to -8 or -10 climbed above zero the next day.
Yeah the intial “back end” would have been north of the city by now - but with the backbuilding, it hasn’t moved too far in the last 2 hours. Probably lighter intensity though.
