Ralph Wiggum Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 FWIW, 18Z NAM has virtually no precip for I-95 overnight. Steady rain here now....40F. Been raining steadily for over an hour sooooo, I would say the NAM at 18Z: A) should be thrown out B ) was suffering from convective feedback issues C) had the right idea but missed the boat on the QPF totals D) performed worse than the 18Z NOGAPS E) was outperformed by the 12Z CRAS F) all of the above Choose as many as you feel are correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman56 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Down to 33.8 and light rain here in NW Chester County (Just S of Bucktown). 10 inches of snow cover after high of 43.1 today. Tracking the race between the changeover and no precip lines... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 PHI is on all night and will be looking for snow at elevation and gradu descending and any amounts/location will be helpful. am thinking the hrrr and 00z NAM just arent respecting reality of ice crystal seeing as trof goes neg and redevelopment of seeing clouds occurs westward in central va. thanks wd/phi 918pm.

Steady rain? .01 at PHI but nearly 4 hrs of r- there and not very far away sitting at .02-05 from s to ne and nw. if its snow... no on4e is happy. nam too dry. current modeling suggests rgem finally onto it. we'll watch this evolve as the night goes on. wd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortheastPAWx Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 31.9*F with light snow, not really sticking that well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 .01 at PHI but nearly 4 hrs of r- there 0.01 after 4 hrs of r- sounds a lot more like Elko's version of "steady rain", not PHL's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Well, it took until 7:30 to flip to light snow, although it'll probably more of the showery variety from here on. Temp is 33.3 though at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Morning all... currently 24.8F with light snow falling. So far total accum is about 2.5 inches. I see the plow passed through....(on top of the mountain where we are they plow 1" plus otherwise accidents become common place and or you freeze over and can't leave the top).Looks like visibility is about 3/4 mile in fog and snow. Here is the low res web cam snap shot.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
