The Front is coming thru here in NW Chesco now with heavy Snow and winds starting to gust out of the West

Temp 32.1

[penndotguy]

Moderate wind driven snow grass and cars covered again, in Central Berks

[NJHurricane]

somebody run out to KDIX and flip the clear air mode switch to "off"

looking to see if that band out by lancaster propagates eastward and hooks up with stuff north of reading to make one long NNW to SSE band as depicted by some of the sim radars on the hi res models

[ChescoWx]

Quick image out of GRLevel 3 showing where the band is setting up....my house is the red +

[wederwarrior]

light flakes NBerks, dandruff flakes

quick dusting

Chester Co looks to cash in with the mythical norlun

I put my broom out to try and taunt an inch out of this

[ChescoWx]

Longer range shot of band setting up with FROPA

[White_Mtn_Wx]

Nice graphic Paul, I live near where the light blue and brown lines seperate south of Honey Brook. My hill is surely getting pounded right now.

[Quakertown needs snow]

fresh coating here

[Snow_Miser]

What town is that?

Southern Somerset County.

[blizzardlover]

Snowing heavily in pike creek, DE. Was out driving...very low vis and windy.

[Snow_Miser]

Was just out getting pizza.

Roads are just wet.

Big flakes mixing in with the smaller flakes as well.

[chubbs]

On the western edge of that heavy band. Light snow not as heavy as before. 0.5" from round 2.

[ChescoWx]

KMQS reporting Heavy Snow and I can assure you it is pounding as I type...took a pic 2 min ago even heavier now

Temp down to 31.6 Wind gusting to 17mph

[Snow_Miser]

On the western edge of that heavy band. Light snow not as heavy as before. 0.5" from round 2.

Looking at the radar loop, the heavy band is shifting east in SE PA.

[MacChump]

About to drive from Wilmington to chadds ford for dinner. Should be a fun drive.

[SmokeEater]

Snowing moderate/heavy here now, quickly accumulating on everything but roads.

[chubbs]

Down to 26F. Nice to see powdery wind-blown snow.

[SmokeEater]

Hammonton, Atlantic County. 31 degrees.

[Snow_Miser]

Interesting that multiple heavier pockets of precipitation have popped up in Northern NJ heading southward:

[ChescoWx]

^{0.8" of snow here in NW Chesco during the past 45 min and still snowing very heavily see attached}

^{Temp down to 28.0}

^{Winds gusting to 17mph}

^{All surfaces including roads are covered in the area}

[Parsley]

Getting in on the fun here with fine, light snow, gusty northwest winds and temperatures dropping.

[NJHurricane]

per infrared it looks like its coming together but radar doesn't really match yet

[blinkers88]

Moderate snow roads are getting covered

[ChescoWx]

Hey Greg,

No doubt about it....still coming down hard here and temp down to 26.1

Drive safe back home

[dryslotted]

It's been snowing lightly here for a while, and the grass and cars are re-coated, but we've been above freezing all day, save for a few brief moments per local wx stations. Odd to have a few consecutive light snow events in February where the roads are mostly just wet throughout...Holding at 34 right now...

It seems the arctic front really hasn't passed through yet, my surface temps are still above freezing even with heavy snow rates.

[SouthPaw]

Just measured 1.5 inches on the back deck, snow still coming down.

Wow, that all fell this evening? Impressive.

Paul

Thanks Paul, S+ right now in the heat island of Thorndale. Working on an inch here and the roads look to have gotten much worse in the last 15 mins. radar looks like another heavy band is moving thru back home, probably will be a slow drive.

It hasn't passed through yet, you'll know when it does, lol.
