Beings I'm a ski instructor my tracking habits shift northward. Vermont can be very nice in Late March plus the extra daylight! -
1/19/25 Eagles Playoff Winter Storm obs

Interesting that the Mertztown and Huff's Church totals are so low when New Hanover, Alburtis and Fleetwood totals are high. Also Emmaus- two different measurements. -

Better safe than sorry? Higher totals seemed to hold serve in the NW interior. Perhaps it seemed to necessary to hedge bets with Philly due to risk? These frontal systems must be the ones that make you guys nuts! -
Sunday 1/19 Eagles Game Snow and Stuff
zenmsav6810 replied to Ralph Wiggum's topic in Philadelphia Region
The Canadian always seems to do okay when there's been a lot of cold air around. Nam has been scoring well and tends to model frontogenesis well. How does cold air damming work into the mix? -

1/6 snowstorm - nuisance event or something bigger?

zenmsav6810 replied to LVblizzard's topic in Philadelphia Region
Except there's no such thing as a snow day- rather the kids have to telecommute for their flexible instruction day like mini-adults on their laptops! Communicable illness and the fact their is more fast moving traffic on the roads today also weighs more heavily on the decision making these days. -

Fat flakes in Caln Twp. here at work. Peaceful snow but the roads were pretty bad even with just 1/4" this morning. -

I guess this was probably caused by the inversion layer last night. Some reading that I did said thunder can reflect off the warm layer.

Some very loud and powerful thunder just rolled through here about 10 minutes ago. It's been a long time since I've been frightened by thunder like that probably some of the loudest I've ever heard.

You've been calling for a drought since you joined the forum- but yes it is a serious condition at this point. You were bound to be right sooner or later. We also enjoy busting your stones for it.

This map is not well thought out. Chester county has enacted a burn ban. Forest fire sign at French creek was moved to moderate last Tuesday or Thursday. We have to get some rain soon otherwise the drought will likely be protracted over the winter.

I would say not. Reading is surrounded by tall hills which probably amplifies the heat island effect which is something Philly does not contend with. Could the steel mill and power plants in Reading be interfering too? Its also a much more compact layout than Philly. Plus I would think the heat capacity of the old brick buildings in Reading is greater than modern steel, concrete and asphalt structurers in Philly. Philly rivers and waterfrontage (and likely forested and park areas) are much larger too when compared to Reading.
