Yuppers I’m in Western Berks we got the same 5-8

Used to be a time where NW of I95 and far NW burbs meant something, seems like that’s not a thing anymore

27F total of 1.2” fell here in Western Berks, had a few decent snow showers roll through till about 10pm.

We hit 1”

24F with steady snow falling again

24F with moderate snow right at at 1” roads are a mess.

Can we lock it in, if we’re going by the nickle and dime events that just might be a fifty center

Absolutely, pick the least possible snow scenario and book it in this pattern.

Hey that’s me zone, I take but in all reality I’ll take my <1 and be happy

I’m surely not ready to cancel winter on the 13th of January, I still think we get hit with one good storm probably later on towards February. As long as cold air is around we stand a good chance we don’t need anymore Arctic intrusion’s. Anyway 40F feels good even with the clouds

I look at that map and realistically see C-2 or 2-4” been the trend all season hard to go against it

I’m in Western Berks I got .3 myself

24F .35” of sparkling snow this brings me to 3.90” for season so far.

30F/Dp13 cloudy, Eagerly awaiting my 0.5” I hope I can sleep.

I fully expect a cutter or a Southern slider, unless it shows 1-2” I’m not interested

27F/wc12F NW25/Gusting to 39 I’m over this damn wind thing.

<2” book it for sure, my coating could use a refresher

Only If it had some support, its does look good though

17F/Dp4F NW@18 gusts to 40mph making it feel like 4F

You can lock-in that scenario.

Ok since joining this site I think I’ve gathered quite a bit of knowledge as well as the extreme highs and lows in expectations with that said I just want to confirm a few things. The main reason for our cold/dry weather is due to the 50/50 low that is trapped due to the strong -NAO, do we need one or the other weaker or in a different position? Because I’ve always thought both of these features are needed for our snowy winters. Now I get there are other factors as well, but it seems the culprit in this windy cold winter that damn 50/50 is messing up things.

I think we all feel your frustration to some extent, seems we've found everyway to fail at snow the last few winters. We still have a ways to go though so hopefully we can score here as this pattern breaks down, Cold and dry doesn't work well with me either.

30F WC17 NW@22 gust39 mph mostly sunny skies.

This^^^^^ I is so true growing up I remember the 2-4,4-8 type storms were quite common, 93, 96 were all anomalies one in a hundred year storms for a reason I know we’ve had a couple since then but not to that extent. So I welcome any snow that falls especially with the BN temps to keep it around longer than a day

Im not totally giving up hope just yet still a few days to sort things out. but yeah tempering expectations is theme so far this winter.
