chubbs Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Very last set of echoes was a mixture of sleet and rain here. Threaded the needle in this area for the round 1 warm advection snows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCT777 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Noon obs. 32 degrees light snow 5" storm total here, 3 miles north of Collegeville, PA Thanks for posting that. Since I am at work, I will be using your snow measurements to estimate the amount for Round 1 at my house. Seems like 5" of snow is pretty standard for Lansdale, Harleysville and Collegeville areas.

soadforecaster Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 all sleet here i boothwyn now, hopefully it turns back to snow before the heavy stuff gets here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yes_Probably_Maybe_No Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 WOW, and that nailed this mornings snow, last night. Both the RR and HRR at 0z and 1z were a little underdone in the area (2-6" averaging them out), but then at 2z/3z/4z right before I went to sleep they really backed off (showed about 1-2"). In terms of those two, we overperformed from late last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbs Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Round 2 is developing nicely on radar. Heavy convective bands in South/central Va. Snow spreading north of the turnpike in SW Pa. http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/northeast_loop.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpantz Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I'll say we pulled down 2" in Act 1. Nice surprise. Let's see where the banding sets up later on. Dynamics look to be impressive this evening if everything connects as progged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penndotguy Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 there's 4-6" /hr snowfall rate in there Yeah out here even we were told to expect 1-3" per hr rates at times, should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCT777 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Nice pics, Dosh. Looks like 5" will do it for Round 1. Can't wait to see what Round 2 brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiburon Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I've seen 2-3" per hour snowfall rates. I've never to my knowledge seen 4+" per hour. I guess that's what is meant by "puking snow." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmorninglight Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I saw that earlier. I am getting hounded by students and staff here at school. I am going with 3-5 inches of very wet snow for now. Anministrators now ask me too, lol. Not sure if any mets can help us out, but how will the potential phase of the two disturbances change the outcome for coastal areas this far south. Thanks. Woot, Cape May county is finally under a Winter Storm Warning. The cold rain/drizzle continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximum lawman Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Funny, I saw that and Growin Up immediately popped into my head. It's hard to look at that and not think the LV is in play, but you'll have to see what the coastal does. I do note that HPC forecast has been firmly on the western edge of guidance.

Let's check again in an hour to validate. I will say this: I might just give up weather altogether if MBY goes from fringed to dry slotted. No chance it happens, but just thinking about it makes my stomach hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
