djr5001 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 i took notice that we were in the 30's yesterday for most of the day, late afternoon (5ish) when the wind picked up 10-12 with gusts in the mid 20's, my temp went to 45. No precip on the other side of the mighty susky either. The weekend is looking nice, i'm not as sure as others we reach the 60's, but mid to high 50s seems reasonable. models have 850 temps climb into the teens (oC) so it is possible surface temps at some locations do reach 60s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 Going O/T but I definitely remember a decent snow on 30 Jan. 2000...think we had school off the next day too which was quite fun to have after watching an intense Super Bowl (I recall that was The Tackle game...)

Billabong Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 O/T again, but the Kocin PSU appearance has officially been cancelled Just like the NWA conference did during their last minute NWS pull-out, we're working on an interactive, online session in one of the technology classrooms on campus. While the speaker isn't physically there, it proved to still work great at the last NWA conference as people were still able to ask questions and such through the microphone. Hopefully we'll know soon if this will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasternUSWX Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I remember before I went to bed looking at the NWS site at 11 pm and being stunned to see a winter storm warning for York/Harrisburg/Lancaster. Biggest snow lovers dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 It probably wasn't that particular storm, although it certainly did have a sharp cutoff which I remember being on the wrong side of... but Lancaster county as a whole did very well with that one I believe. The 2000 surprise storm was much stronger and tracked right along the coastline. The lore of that storm was that it was predicted to be an out to sea glance with not very much snow even 24 hours prior. For the DC area, it didn't become apparent that it was even going to snow more than maybe an inch until less than 10 hours prior to it starting, and since that happened to be an overnight timeframe.. it was a complete surprise when everyone woke up to an all out snowstorm. Link The Scott Simard/Brian Monahan Super storm...if anyone remembers them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa Clause Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I loved both January storms in 2000!! Does anyone remember an inauguration day storm in 2001??? I seem to remember getting a bunch of snow when the second George Bush was being sworn in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmister Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 It looks like the front coming through Monday night could bring some areas their first snowflakes of the season. NAM and GFS both suggest precip hanging around long enough to see a quick change to snow before ending. The further west you are, the more chance you have of seeing flakes.

MAG5035 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Got some mixing occurring here currently.
