PennMan Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 It just won't end. 1-2 days of training rains like this is pretty unusual....I think we've had like 10+ days so far this month....just crazy. That batch in Lancaster County might bump us up over 18" if it holds together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PottercountyWXobserver Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Some of those hills around your town are over 2000 ft asl. Mr. Potter, we're counting on you to make that climb. yep, there is a hill right behind my grandmothers house at around 2200ft, I plan on heading up there sometime saturday night on the fourwheeler. I was originally thinking friday night would be the best night for a chance of snow but looks to be saturday night. Where I live in part of the town is at an elevation of 1506ft which is close to the river valley, so I'm going to see if that extra 700ft will make the difference . Its going to be tough to get some snow at this time of the year, but if I can see at least one flake, it will be all worth it! If I really feel up to it, I might take a quick trip over to Lyon Hill about 15 minutes from here, peaks close to 2600ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Count me as someone that has pretty decent confidence in some of the really high ground seeing flakes on Saturday/Sat night. Surprised none of you guys mentioned the 12z Euro, which does a couple things. For starters, it lingers back alot of precip compared to the other models. Hour 60 in particular is really interesting, with a closed region of <540 dm covering most of the state and a sizeable area of .25-.50" 6 hour precip. Further scrutiny shows 850 temps around -2ºC in the western half of the state and at 925 while there's no area of 0ºC.. central and western PA reside in a closed region of at or slightly below 2ºC. In short, it screams high elevation snowfall event. Unfortunately, I don't think there will be that much QPF around when things get to the point where you might start seeing flakes fly in the highest ground. Still though, I bet at least one the usual suspects sees it. And if anyone at all actually sees a flake at the beginning of October, that would be very impressive.

It is tough for me, because I don't know a free site that has the Euro, so I never get a chance to see what it is showing. I'm stuck watching the GFS, NAM, GGEM, and UKie.
