Well take note the time index is t=2010 seconds (its a sign)! The organ is the big ole' Haskell in St. Francis de Sales. The largest church organ in the Delaware Valley. A true philly Icon all around!

Sorry @forkyfork I didn't mean to rub it in that bad. We owe you one.

This was never their storm. The only reason MA is even involved is because some people decided they wanted this to be their storm. ♫ ♬ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♩ Music to my ears! Brought to you by the Philly Orchestra!

If its worth anything, I seem to remember the NAM struggling with the 09-10 winter

Should Eskin resign too?

Dt forecast is going to favor VA NC and southern snow areas. He might be a professional met... but he's also a professional weenie. I thought he always favored the Euro anyway... Don't tell me he's worried about the 3km NAM... This isn't one of those times. This feels like a solid storm. I'm not sure if well see 20" but this is a MECS for most of our area if even at the low end

Thats a nice look for round 2.

light snow showers for the last 20 minutes here in Pottstown. Picking up now. Storm says lets get down to business!

The NAM giveth the NAM taketh away!

Lol I've seen we've digressed into talking about '58 here. Just take your 16" inches and be happy. .... clearly too many weenies for breakfast. Nothing about this says Hecs, this is modeled as a reasonable Mecs. I dont think the low is deep enough. No wonder these storms always fall short of expectations when the expectations rise of the granddaddy of all PA blizzards-- what do you expect. I think the Para shows a nice solution however I think the gradient will be further south and tighter. Realistically there will be some dry slotting and probably a crust of sleet at some point. Somebody will probably see 20 to 22" out of this but you'd have to be color blind to see 50" on any of these maps!!

To declare its a blizzard you need rates of 2" per hour for at least 4 hours, I think there has to be at least 2hours of 2" per hour that are consecutive as well. To declare a warning I think it has to be in cards along with the wind requirement but i'm not positive about that.

Looks like a solid storm by all accounts. Pattern shaping up okay too. Still some time left but its encouraging.

If my name isn't Pottstown Potts!

Bullseyes Monmouth.... must be right...has to be right.

If there was a two weenie button I would use it.

Too early to Weenie jump. All the ingredients are in place. The only thing that worries me is the persistent warm day time temps and the above normal rainfall. We're already ahead compared to a few of the last winters.

Believe it or not it was actually on the NWS forecast for my area for 20% chance of flurries/showers. In hindsight they probably should have issued a snow squall warning.

Probably about 7-8" in Pottstown. New blower (two stage rider) from two seasons ago worked like a champ. Wrap around was a nada here. Roads were still pretty rough near Pottstown on my way over to East Earl at 9:30 am this morning. A little overforecasted but the deep interior made out. Not bad for December.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas!

I'm starting to get worried about ski season. Natural snow prospects look bleak... not even weenie runs, and I am sure the virus will change the economic calculus on making snow...

Indeed, we've been out since noon on Wednesday. Not estimates for restoration range betweentonight at 11pm to sunday at 11pm. Don't have batteries in my wetherlink live so I missed out on data from that time period ...

I've often wondered if localized cold fronts (like those in CAD events) played more of a role in this.

Indeed I've noticed the same thing. The lines charge West to East are typically disappointments.
