Here is the Nam from 24 hours ago showing where it predicted snow for a few hours this afternoon...since we(some) were singing its praises. Cumberland, far Northern Adams and York, Dauphin, N Franklin, etc...even very close to NE Lancaster
Nooners, 34 and heavy rain. 1.10" now. Just checked my contact part way up to high rock, at around 1500 feet, and they are 32 and Frz rain. No snow up there yet.
That would certainly limit the need for mosquito spray! LOL. We were at Assateague a few months ago. My wife does not know it, but she is getting a Nat Park pass for Christmas. Not paying to see the horses next time!
It was talked about on the MA thread a couple years ago and I saw some documentation on it but cannot find it now. So, I do not know all the details but know something is up. First the ETA and now the Nam.
Count me on the Nam train as well. Also, I frequently rely on the HRRR for pinpoint forecasts, but its depiction of the columns was off on this one.
And to think they are turning the Nam off.....sigh.
This heavy rain has probably limited the ice accretion on the streets. Officially .65 here so not at 3/4 yet, just approaching as the rain is coming down. Sim radar has about 1/2" here but I think it runs a tad behind.
We are up to 31, from 28 at 6:30, and very heavy rain with street flooding at the bottom of hills. No other issues on the roads that I can see but still probably not smart to drive for another hour or two. Trees covered in ice and sidewalks are slushy. Schools sticking with just 2-hour delay which is a bit surprising with all the rural roads here.
The HRRR is caving to the Nam faster than a French Maginot line. Snow still to go per the HRRR. Most of the N Central snow is 10A-5PM. This is a 10-1 map so cut these totals by ~20%.
