Burghblizz

Quite a conveyor belt of moisture with this. And these waves don’t look overly strong. It I had to guess, Youngstown does much better than us as far as straight snow, but it really is just a timing issue to get us in the really good stuff.

Part of me thinks that if I’m traveling, I’d rather still have the storm back home (and miss it) versus getting it on the road somewhere. (obviously, nothing beats actually experiencing it in your backyard)

UK has a good hit too. There is a bunch of ice on that GFS. Would be high impact taken literally.

UK south AF. Much better look.

Taken literally, I’m like 20 miles from the foot line, but yeah, not a fan of that look.

The bulk of the rest is north. If GFS rejoins south by tonight, I’ll be dragged in

Euro looking good, so good to have a model without a SE bias on board.. Going to take some threading the needle.

Never like being on the southern end of the good stuff

You’d be complaining about the going almost a year between inches (like Boston almost did) or 1/2” winters (like Philly just had. HALF of those NYC storms happened in the last 20 years. I’m not sure if it’s a remarkable stretch of luck, or a product of climate change. Probably a little of both. Its also all relative. I complained a little about a foot in ‘96, knowing how close it was to being much bigger. Our NWS list is a little understated for big storms, if you draw the line at 16”. Most areas also had 16”+ in ‘03 and ‘94 as well. And 30ish” in ‘78 that was really back to back over 4 days. We fixed the 8-12” drought with some nice ones lately. Been 12 years for 16+. I think it’s time, but enjoy what you got until then

We’ve never seen that

NWS for Boston has been in that 12-18” range. Maybe just recently bumped to 18-24”. So I think that’s just models zeroing in on reality Weenies will Weenie, but 30” to 40” was just model runs (and maybe the 10% NWS high end potential map)

Looks like it has a little more water content than the past few snows - so really nice morning with a freshened up snow pack and it clinging to the trees

It’s crazy how the GFS had this 10+ days out to the day, and with intensity not far off. It was never our storm as it got in a more realistic range, but it was always on the map.

Got to -9 IMBY.

We quite literally just had DCs annual snowfall in the last 9 days. People in my neighborhood are running out of places to put it. And 3 9-12” storms in 4 years, and like 8 6” storms in 4 years But go ahead. Move a mile from DCA. Post often. Or go to Columbus. They ain’t seen 6” in 6 years.

Probably won’t produce the 2-4” that yesterday’s did here, but maybe another 1-2”. Just had a heavier burst winding down. Might crack 15” in the last 8 days, so no complaints.

CMC looks like it wants to blow it up and maybe even retrograde it, which could still put us in the game.

Officially about 13” since last Sunday. If we didn’t have the one warm day in the middle of last week, we’d have a pretty stellar snow pack. Still looking forward to another nice afternoon. See if we can tack on another 2 or 3.

The 12.20 storm had more widespread 12” totals, even if the official total was less.

Not even close. A 9” storm when u have a forecast of 6” to 12” is not a bust. 1.19 had a similar forecast with almost no snow.

Because of one guy. Who needs to not @ me, but instead go to the complaint thread. No one wants to hear that shit anymore. It was a fantastic winter day. 3.1” officially, with a lot of 3-4” reports. Some 5 and 6” reports in Beaver and Butler county. Some 2” reports to the south and some of the lower elevations around the city.

Rates were diminishing the last couple hours, but just started cranking as the back end is coming. Right around 3.5” at the moment

Yeah - 11” in March 2018. That was a nice overproducer. Not quite the impact of the 12.20 storm, but nice prolonged snow if I recall.

Agree. I’ve come to that conclusion this year too. Almost like a Philly cat trolling - sick of their rain and the Flyers losing

Definitely North and West. I just measured 2.5”. Reports of 4” already in New Castle.
