JamieOber Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I need time in my sensory depravation chamber after this one. If this is still there after I emerge in a few days, we'll talk. Going for the "PSUHazeltonWx" storm? I say we go for it. The PSUHazletonWx Storm - let's do this thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Got this from the Philly thread...Looks like it is tucking in at the Coast: pressure falls would indicate a tucking in at the coast latest meso analysis indicating the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Lets keep the focus on this storm, for now and enjoy what we have! I'm currently looking at radar and water vapor out of the Mid Atlantic and I must remark how impressed I am. The cloud tops are cooling at a phenomenal rate over West Virginia and western Virginia. Also, if you take a look at this radar loop (http://radar.weather...s/full_loop.php) you will note a curvature to the precipitation shield. This is a classic signal for significant east coast cyclogenesis. It's going to get really fun for the southern tier counties over the next 10 - 15 hours! In fact, I would not be surprise if cities like Gettysburg, York, Harrisburg Lancaster and Coatesville see some thundersnow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those of us in "true" Central PA (geographically speaking), how's that shaping up for this region (UNV, Clearfield, IPT)? Interesting on the thundersnow - I saw reports of lightning in VA.

pawxworld Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=ccx&product=N0R&loop=yes This is really back building west and moving north east.

Excellent point, I was looking at the radar and that bending looks classic for our area, just hope we get some thundersnow, haven't had any since I was a kid.

hckyplayer8 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I would say (especially with Allan's radar set to filter out a lot of the lighter returns) that she's filling in. http://raleighwx.americanwx.com/models/radar/northeastradar_loop_large.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Iceman Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 fwiw the high res models kept the heaviest south but they are really far off with current precip so easy to say just chuck em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWxJr Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Snow hasn't stopped yet since it started this morning....thinking it may just bridge into part 2....I think its about time S/C PA got its share....New Jersey can be jealous!

canderson Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 It hasn't once stopped snowing in Harrisburg. It's been light, but never stopped. If the heavier bands will be here in 2 or so hours, getting home is going to be an absolute nightmare. Hell getting HERE this morning was harrowing - some idiot in front of me took a corner going probably 20 and his car ended up bouncing off a telephone pole into a pretty large ditch on Chambers Hill Road. Thundersnow? Let's do this! (btw I third calling this storm PSUHazletonWx: Revenge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmister Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Light flurries beginning here in State College (or more specifically 4th floor of the Walker Building haha). Looks to just increase in intensity for quite some time. Radar is filling in nicely in coverage and I expect in intensity too. Here is a good close-up radar for CPA, especially near State College: http://www.meteo.psu.edu/~gadomski/RAD_CTP/animauto.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
