Well, our snowfall total was already cut back. On the maps last night, Pottsville was listed at 4-6 inches, and now it's 2-3. I started to embrace the snowfall, hoping that PA would institute a commercial vehicle ban for Monday, but if they keep cutting back, it'll just be a slick nuisance variety mess, and I'll have to run. I really need to move away from this area...

Thanks! That's actually a pretty good graphic. Much better than their Rubik's Cube one...lol

I really hope your right. Monday I go to NYC, but I've got a bit more wiggle room on that one if it's bad.

I'm worried because my itinerary is to pick up in Wilkes-Barre, Pittston, and Dickson City, and then go right through the heart of the Poconos on I-380 to I-80 to the Water Gap and into New Jersey.

Wanna drive my Prevost tour bus to MetLife Stadium for me on Sunday? Gotta roll around 5:30 am, go up to Wilkes-Barre and Scranton, then come down through the Poconos on 380 to 80 and be there in time for them to tailgate... Not looking forward to it at all.

Worst part of all this, for me, is that we have a high end client going to an NFL game and I got assigned the run. There's no opportunity for me to say it's "too icy" or the roads are "too bad" and "I'm not running". We'll lose the customer, and I'll get fired.

Hopefully road, street, and sidewalk temps are 33 or above or there is nothing nice about that. I have to pick up in Wilkes-Barre @ 6:30am to go to the game. Unlike other charters which can be postponed if the roads are bad, this cannot since it's an NFL game and they will be tailgating... And before anyone says anything...yes, I should move to Florida or back to Arizona, but the ONLY way that happens is via divorce.

Im really not liking this one as I just picked up Sunday work now as well. Taking a group to MetLife Stadium for the Packers/Giants game. No snow/ice please...

Me neither, but to the "Average Joe", I suppose it works.

Rubik's Cube forecasting model. I like it...lol

That Tuesday Hour 162 map would be a disaster for me as I have to go to NYC and pick up a group at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal Monday late morning. Somehow I think they'll want me to trudge through and get them and not have to stay in the city...

Missed it by 5 miles. Pottsville, Frackvile, Mahanoy City. Snow. Tamaqua? Nope. Not sure if it was subsidence or downsloping, but it never materialized here.

Actually, it's been precipitation free all morning here in town. Up on I-81 though is a different story. This pic was taken by my neighbor somewhere between Pine Grove and Hometown.

Nothing here but a cold, gray, ugly morning...

Out of the subforum region, but it was 12 in Mountain Top where I picked up my charter group this morning.

I hit the worst of the snow on I-81 going over the Nanticoke hill. Completely snow and ice covered and 20 mph up and down each side. Now down at Sight & Sound in Lancaster and just cold and windy.

I know it's all "noise" as to the correct placement of where any "heavier" accumulations set up, but I couldn't resist posting...lol

But look at that Schuylkill County snow hole...lol

Me neither. Way too cold way too early...

The 00z Euro still shows the weekend snow, and the 06z GFS shows it (but later, on Monday) as well...

We had a solid 2 hours of moderate to heavy rain from 8 to 10 last night. I was surprised.

3.02" of rain in Tamaqua yesterday.

Good amount of rain, some wind (but calm at the moment), and some flashes of thunder is about it so far.

And just like that...Tornado Watch.

I was just about to post this. Pretty ominous statement out of CTP this afternoon.
