0z meso models looking juicier for Tuesday north of Philly. Lots of them showing over an inch in the Lehigh Valley now.

I wonder how much of this snowpack will stick around till Christmas. I like our odds of a white Christmas with temps not getting above freezing for the next 3 days and the low sun angle, plus the chance of a little bit more on Tuesday.

Not surprised, lots of people went to work or even went for a night out thinking there would be no more than an inch on the ground by now. Instead there’s 3” on untreated roads. I was out delivering food for over 3 hours tonight and I didn’t see a single plow.

Looks like around 3” out there. I had to stop DoorDash for the night because the roads were getting too slick for my FWD car. Probably another inch or two tonight. Love these overperformers!

Looks like about 1 1/2-2” in and around Allentown. Still coming down too. DoorDash and Uber Eats are an absolute gold mine tonight because of the snow, I don’t think I’ve ever worked a night quite this good.

Coming up on an inch in Allentown. Roads are still fine so it’s time to do some DoorDash and make some good money tonight!

About half an inch on the ground as light snow continues. Love it!

I literally posted an update on my page around 11 am saying the afternoon looks like some scattered snow showers and nothing more. Then that band of snow just appeared out of nowhere on the radar. I don’t think any of the meso models had this, they all held off the accumulating snow till after sunset.

Nice band of snow over Lehigh County right now. Coming down pretty good. All surfaces covered but the road.

Light snow in Allentown with a dusting on the ground. Not expecting much from this initial wave of snow. The IVT looks like it’ll give us an inch or two tonight though.

Actually some decent agreement on the 12z models with the IVT over eastern PA/northern NJ. The wild card is the initial wave of precip tomorrow afternoon. Some models have it, some don’t. If that’s stronger than expected we could get an extra inch or so.

12z NAM…aaaaaand it’s gone. Still has the norlun at least.

Patiently waiting for someone to blame this NAM run on convective feedback or something. Happens with every storm threat when the models show something we don’t like.

Late night SREF with a pretty sizable shift towards a stronger and farther west system.

Very surprised @MJO812hasn’t posted the 15z SREF mean. It’s west and has a large area of 1-3”.
