Below are the 1st 3 of the 12z runs - simply looking at model snow amounts by Thursday morning. They are all in basic agreement on moderate snow totals across the area this week.

NAM with a look not too different from our last event for tomorrow.

One of the wintrier weeks of weather in several years is on tap for the area with 4 distinct storms with varying types of wintry precipitation. The first one arrive tomorrow afternoon as brief snow, sleet to freezing rain (ZR). This will be a colder event than yesterday with temperatures staying in the 20's for the entire event – maybe an inch or so of snow/sleet before the ZR. The 2nd event arrives on Tuesday and should be mainly snow....this has the potential to be a "plowable" event. More snow arrives Thursday morning, but it should change to sleet and freezing rain and possibly all rain before ending. The 4th event next weekend looks like it will be primarily rain.

The ensemble runs are a bit snowier than the operational runs of the European. The European shows 3 more winter storms over the next 10 days. The first one this weekend is snow to ice. The 2nd one in the Wednesday to Thursday time frame looks to be a "plowable" event. The third looks possible next weekend. The below are the ensemble runs for each of these potential events.

Still some lite ZR here in East Nantmeal....couple ice pics as of 1130am

About 0.15" of this was from this AM

29.5 here in East Nantmeal with ZR 0.3" of sleet overnight

Still ZR Temp 29.5 with 0.3" of sleet

Sleet/IP Mix temp 27.8 all surfaces coated

Anything that falls after 9am would be non-snow if the 850mb temps are correct

Always buy the NAM on snow vs non snow....much better NAM run - significantly less ZR - still little or no snow in Eastern PA and similar sleet totals.

You think someone likes that garbage??

Here's hoping we all warm up faster than modeled!! No one likes ice!!

32.7 here in NW Chesco DP 14.7

February is our snowiest month of the year. We average around 13" in a normal month. Below are the greatest snowstorms in Chester and SE Berks County history since 1893.

Yep that of course will always be the case as you near the coastal plain.....

Potential all over the place over the next 2 weeks

Hoping the NAM is drunk again as while it has almost no snow for anyone in PA it does have quite a bit of sleet followed by ZR - up to 1/3 inch of ice for my area would be far from swell.....
