  1. Yes, the wind is definitely going to be a problem. We've had an ongoing wind/tree problem here all winter. In fact, one event bit me in the ass back in early January. I was coming off the Blue Mountain northbound and as I rounded a bend in the road, a tree had fallen and lowered the wires that crossed over 309. Lucky me. I was the first tractor trailer there, and I caught those low wires with the trailer and snapped a telephone pole and brought every wire completely down across the road, and caused a royal mess. Cops took the report, said it wasn't my fault, and sent me on my way, but it tied up traffic there for over half a day.
  2. Just a mere 15 minutes after I made that post, we flipped to sleet, and now have freezing drizzle. Temp up one to 29.
  3. Just measured. 1.5" here. All snow still. Temp 28
  4. Out to 105 and it doesn't look good north of the PA/MD border.
  5. Temp is up 3 from this morning, but the dewpoint hasn't budged. It's been 15 all morning.
  6. I just heard about the wind. Possibly 60+ mph?
  7. I've been noticing that while perusing the varius models, plus your mentioning it. NWS is still on for what looks to be possibly 2-4, but they now bumped up the ice potential from less than 0.1" to 0.1" to 0.2"
  8. It was quite the interesting night on PA309 over the Blue Mountain. Last night's winds brought trees and wires down some on top of cars which shut it down for a number of hours. After it re-opened, a heavy snow squall blew through dropping about 2 inches, which caused the road to ice up, which of course caused a number of trucks to get stuck and/or jackknife, which of course closed it back down again.
  9. Only 15 mph here in my ultra protected location.
  10. CTP bumped me up from 1-3 to 2-4 for Saturday. Saturday Snow, mainly after 1pm. High near 32. Calm wind becoming southeast around 6 mph in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible.
  11. A month and a half in, and 2025 sucks major balls, and not just because of the weather.
  12. Nothing really on radar, but it's been snowing here for about two hours now with a fresh coating on all surfaces. Looks to be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
  13. Could be a low topped overcast. We had a snow here in Tamaqua about 10 or so years ago that put down a half foot while never once showing on radar.
  14. Yes. Same here. It's been nothing more than occasional flurries all morning, but now we have a steady, small flaked, light snow.
  15. Colin was from Catasauqua, which is an Allentown suburb. When Wright Weather folded and Eastern started, he was briefly a moderator until more capable people, and meteorologists migrated over. He was a weenie through and through and eventually got banned if I remember correctly. There was a guy PSU Hazleton, whom I believe is the true Wmsptwx, who changed his name when he went to school there.
  16. It's rare that I post down in that forum, but when I do, it's almost always ignored. I guess that's better than getting a "pissy post", but still... Like you said, we welcome everyone with good intentions in our forum.
  17. That light snow currently in Central PA just can't seem to get to Tamaqua. Even though it's movement is ENE, it's fizzleing out as it gets to I-81. Must be some serious dry air in the eastern Skook.
  18. Haha. Same here. It looks like someone sprayed my Jeep with a can of that Christmas snow.
  19. Some light snow even here now. Everything getting dusted. Cars, roads, sidewalks...
  20. Never really got started here. Just those few flurries awhile ago. It's not breaking my heart any, either. Hopefully it stays away.
  21. Very light snow/flurries have commenced here.
