CoraopolisWx Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Huge difference in snowpack from this time last year. Notably the 6"+ coverage, which was basically confined to Canada last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelCity08 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Been snowing since around 4oclock and close to moderate right now. Roads have been covered for a little bit.. Nws may want to up that forecast just a tad. I'm not usually one to harp on their calls but on a day where so many ppl will be traveling they should probably play it safe a little more.

RitualOfTheTrout Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I'm still thinking 1-2". It's a very light snow and there's some holes in the radar to our west. We'll see. I agree, 1-2 seems to be reasonable. NWS discusses why ratios will be 10:1 or lower as well so it would take an uptick in qpf to really push much over 2. I am surprise we have not really had a favorable LES setup yet this winter. All in all we are looking to have about 2 weeks or so of pretty wintry weather starting with Wednesday after Christmas before we start to moderate again and hopefully re-load the pattern for a better end of January and Feb. I think everyone is at or above normal snowfall for our area despite the mild December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 i hae 3/4 of new snow and this wasnt supposed to start until 7pm right?... Yeah, it did start earlier than expected. After this initial burst moves through, we're going to get some breaks in the action. Snow showers or periods of light snow the rest of the way.

Nah, I like it too. It'll be nice to have a few warm days. It's good to get a break from the cold every once in a while. But, I'll still be tracking the potential threat for next week hoping that it works out for us. Still thinking that mixing will be a concern if it hits us at all. Right now, it looks like the bulk of it may stay to our south and east anyway. We'll see as we get closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

north pgh Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Looking like a nice surprise late tomorrow night and Wed. morning. I am guessing maybe 1-2 inches but the rain/snow mix moves right over us. More so looking forward to the cold to move in early next week and some potential clippers and lake effect during the week.

RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Looking like a nice surprise late tomorrow night and Wed. morning. I am guessing maybe 1-2 inches but the rain/snow mix moves right over us. More so looking forward to the cold to move in early next week and some potential clippers and lake effect during the week. Winter is back. Thoughts? I'm not sure what to make of the little possible event tonight, NWS seems pretty bearish about any snow in the last update. The NAM has some decent precip in the area, but temps are likely an issue. Just looking at the Cobb Data it appears most of the precipitation would fall as snow then after the bulk has passed we warm up. Verbatim NAM is showing 2-3 inches. 6z GFS is similar. I am hoping to cash in on some LES out of the next Arctic outbreak and some lake enhanced snows if we get some favorable clipper tracks. Models have also been hinting at a storm somewhere along the east coast around Martin Luther King day but who gets affected by that is still pretty up in the air I think. At this point it looks pretty far off the coast for us to see anything. One thing I have read in some other Sub Forums is that this is a pattern that something can just pop up in the 4-5 day range. I'm not sure how true that is relative to average 4- 5 day flip flops but would be nice to see happen. There is certainly no chance of snow in the mid 60s like we had recently, so hopefully we can get something while the cold is here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Looks like about an inch with some mixing for most of us. Whatever falls will likely melt tomorrow so if we do get ice it probably won't be around long. Hopefully we can get some snow when the arctic front goes through Sunday, would be pretty lousy having highs in the teens and twenties with bare ground.

Hopefully we can get some snow when the arctic front goes through Sunday, would be pretty lousy having highs in the teens and twenties with bare ground. Yeah, maybe a tricky morning rush hour though. At least the afternoon rush should be fine. Next week's arctic blast doesn't do much for me except to have me brace for the frigid temps. You know how LES can be. Maybe one of us will get lucky and see something worth noting. Otherwise, it's flakes and flurries with the occasional snow shower for most of us. The frigid temps will be the main story. Not a fan of these arctic blasts because usually it's all cold and little snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north pgh Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Another very detailed discussion by Fries at NWS Pit NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PITTSBURGH PA747 PM EST TUE JAN 15 2013.SYNOPSIS...A FAST MOVING WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING A WINTRY MIX OFPRECIPITATION TO MUCH OF THE AREA TONIGHT INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY.&&.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/......WIDESPREAD FREEZING RAIN...SLEET...AND SNOW IMPENDING...THE MODEL SOLUTIONS ARE SEEMINGLY COMING INTO BETTER FOCUS INTERMS OF CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS...ANDWITH THAT SAID...UNCERTAINTY IN THE FORECAST IS FINALLY STARTINGTO COME DOWN. HOWEVER...WHILE THIS FORECASTER WOULD LOVE NOTHINGMORE THAN TO TYPE THAT THINGS DO NOT LOOK AS BAD AS PREVIOUSLYEXPECTED...QUITE THE OPPOSITE LOOKS TO BE THE CASE.MODEL INITIALIZATIONS OVER THE FORECAST AREA WERE QUITEPROBLEMATIC. THE NAM WAS THE COLDEST OF THE NEW 18Z GUIDANCE...ANDIT INITIALIZED TOO WARM AT THE SURFACE OVER VIRTUALLY THE ENTIRECWA. THE 18Z GFS TRENDED DECIDEDLY COLDER AT THE SURFACE AND 850MB FROM ITS PREDECESSOR...BUT EVEN THAT WAS STILL TOOWARM...ALBEIT FAIRLY LOCK STEP WITH THE 12Z ECMWF. ALL THIS LEADSTO GOOD CONFIDENCE IN A FORECAST THAT WOULD BE NO LESS WINTRY THANWHAT COMES OUT OF ANY NUMERICAL GUIDANCE. ADDING TO THE NECESSARYFORECAST TILT TOWARD THE COLD END OF THE SPECTRUM IS THE ABUNDANCEOF DRY AIR IN THE LOWER LAYERS OF THE ATMOSPHERE. SURFACEDEWPOINTS ACROSS THE AREA ARE GENERALLY RUNNING BETWEEN 20F AND25F AT THE MOMENT. THIS WOULD SUGGEST WET BULBING COULD DROP MANYPLACES INTO THE 20S AFTER PRECIPITATION ONSET. THIS ISPARTICULARLY TRUE GIVEN THE SYNOPTIC SETUP. WITH SURFACE HIGHPRESSURE ANCHORED OVER SOUTHEASTERN MICHIGAN...LOW LEVEL DRY AIRWILL CONTINUE TO FILTER INTO THE FORECAST AREA AT LEAST THROUGHTHE EVENING HOURS. TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS...ALL GUIDANCE WAS UNDERCUTFOR TEMPERATURES.DRY AIR AT THE SURFACE AND IN THE LOWER LAYER WILL HAVE ADDITIONALIMPACTS UPON THE FORECAST. FIRST OF ALL...PRECIPITATION ONSET WASDELAYED A FEW HOURS FROM THAT WHICH GUIDANCE WOULDSUGGEST...PARTICULARLY IN THE AREAS WHERE EASTERLY DOWNSLOPE MAYIMPACT THINGS...LIKE WESTMORELAND AND FAYETTE COUNTIES.ELSEWHERE...SEVERAL HOURS OF VIRGA ARE LIKELY THIS EVENING AWAYFROM TUCKER/GARRETT/PRESTON COUNTIES. GIVEN THE COMBINATION OFCOLD AIR IN PLACE...NORTHEASTERLY FLOW EXPECTATIONS...AND GUIDANCETHAT IS CONTINUALLY SHOWING A WARM INTRUSION ALOFT...NOT TOMENTION GOOD CONSENSUS FROM ALL MODELS ON PRECIPITATIONAMOUNTS...THE FORECAST WAS ADJUSTED TO ACCOMMODATE HIGHER QPF INTHE RIDGES...AS WELL AS MORE SOLID/FROZEN PRECIPITATION OVER THENORTHERN HALF OF THE CWA. THIS BREAKS DOWN AS SUCH:COLD AIR SEEMS TO BE LOCKED INTO GARRETT AND AT LEAST EASTERNTUCKER COUNTY JUDGING BY OBSERVATIONS AVAILABLE FROM MESONETS. ITSEEMS INCREASINGLY UNLIKELY THAT THIS COLD AIR WILL MODERATEANYTIME SOON. WITH FLAT TEMPERATURE EXPECTATIONS AND QPF VALUESRUNNING UP ABOVE 0.50 OF AN INCH...ICE ACCUMULATIONS OF ONEQUARTER TO ONE HALF OF AN INCH SEEM QUITE REASONABLE. THESE AREASWERE UPGRADED TO AN ICE STORM WARNING TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. PRESTONCOUNTY SEEMS TO BE A BIT DIFFERENT ANIMAL. SURFACE TEMPERATURESWERE LARGELY ABOVE FREEZING AROUND ONSET ON THE MESONET. WHILE WETBULBING MAY BRING THEM DOWN...A LACK OF UPSTREAM RIDGES TO LOCKCOLD AIR INTO PLACE MAY BE PROBLEMATIC. WHILE SOME ICING ISVIRTUALLY CERTAIN...ACHIEVING ENOUGH TO PROMPT AN ICE STORMWARNING WAS NOT. AS SUCH...PRESTON COUNTY REMAINS WITH THE RIDGESOF WESTMORELAND AND FAYETTE IN THE ADVISORY.FROM THE LOWEST PORTIONS OF THE OHIO VALLEY IN OUR AREA TOWARDMORGANTOWN...SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE QUITE MARGINAL RIGHT NOW.HOWEVER...SEVERAL REPORTS OF FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET HAVE STARTEDTO COME IN...AND MORGANTOWN HAS DROPPED TO FREEZING WITH THE ONSETOF PRECIPITATION. BECAUSE A COATING OF ICE CANNOT BE RULED OUTBEFORE A BIT OF WARMER AIR COMES IN...THESE AREAS HAVE BEEN ADDEDTO THE ADVISORY.FARTHER NORTH...THE WARM INTRUSION ALOFT QUICKLY GETS CUT OFF.MODEL SOUNDINGS BY THE TIME YOU GET TO PITTSBURGH TO NEWPHILADELPHIA LINE SUGGEST A DEEP ISOTHERMAL LAYER AROUND 0CTHROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT...WITH SURFACE TEMPERATURES AROUND 0 TO-1C. WITH THIS TYPE OF A PROFILE...SNOW WOULD SEEMINGLY BE THEPREDOMINANT PRECIPITATION TYPE...HOWEVER THE SURFACE LOW TRACK OFTHE GFS NORTH OF PITTSBURGH AND THE NAM ACROSS GREENE COUNTY WOULDIMPLY THAT THE NORTHWARD MIGRATION OF SOME WARMER AIR WOULD BELIKELY. WITH THIS IN MIND...SOME SLEET OR FREEZING RAIN STILLSEEMS POSSIBLE ALL THE WAY NORTH TO THE TURNPIKE CORRIDOROVERNIGHT. WHILE IT WOULD SEEM THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION SHOULDFALL AS SNOW...A MIX WITH SLEET OR FREEZING RAIN WILL LIKELY CUTTHE ACCUMULATIONS. USING A 4-6:1 RATIO ACROSS THE CORRIDORRESULTED IN 1-2 INCH SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WITH LIGHT ICING.EVEN STILL FARTHER NORTH ALONG I-80...PROFILES LOOK TO STAY WELLCOLD ENOUGH FOR ALL SNOW UNTIL RIGHT AROUND THE END OF THE EVENT.HOWEVER...QPF VALUES AND LIFT ARE LIMITED. ADDITIONALLY...MORESURFACE AND LOW LEVEL DRY AIR WILL NEED TO BE OVERCOME. ASSUCH...LIGHT SNOW AMOUNTS WERE CONTINUED IN THE FORECAST...WITHSOME SHOT AT MIXING WITH SLEET BRIEFLY TOWARD THE END OF THEEVENT.TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WERE CHOPPED THROUGH THENIGHT AS WE START WELL BELOW ANY AND ALL AVAILABLE GUIDANCE. FLATLINE TEMPERATURES WERE CARRIED MOST EVERYWHERE...AND ALL HEADLINESWERE CONTINUED OR EXPANDED. FRIES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
