NeffsvilleWx Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Temperature has fallen by a degree today, down to 28. NWS is saying it'll change to rain around 1600, then to rain/sleet from 1900-0100, then all rain. <WEENIE> I'm hoping it stays frozen </WEENIE> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Dryslot nerves starting a bit but I do know enough that a transfer would stop that. Transfer is beginning in earnest over eastern NC/SC. Pressures down below 1000mb I believe. Snow should fill back in as that low takes over and heads north. It's also good news since an earlier take-over would stop warm air intrusion dead in its tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001kx Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 new NWS discussion .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... SNOW RAPIDLY MOVED FROM SOUTH TO NORTH OVER CENTRAL PA THIS MORNING. STILL HAD NOT REACHED THE NORTHERN TIER COUNTIES AS OF 1 PM BUT SHOULD REACH THE NY BORDER BETWEEN 1 AND 130 PM THIS AFTERNOON. HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION OVER MOST OF THE REGION EXPECTED FROM ABOUT NOW UNTIL 6-8 PM. LOW-LEVEL COLD AIR...IN PART DUE TO EVAPORATIVE COOLING...HAS SNOW. THE MODELS ALL SUGGEST THE SOUTHERN TIER AND THE SOUTHEAST SHOULD MIX WITH ICE PELLETS THIS AFTERNOON AND THEN WITH SOME FREEZING RAIN. WHERE THE 850 HPA WET-BULB ZERO GETS TO THIS EVENING WILL DICTATED SNOWFALL AMOUNTS OVER CENTRAL AREAS. LOTS OF UNCERTAINTY. BUT SOUTHEAST SHOULD MIX WITH FREEZING RAIN AND THEN LANCASTER COUNTY SHOULD GO TO ALL RAIN...MOST OF DAUPHIN AND YORK COUNTIES TOO SHOULD CHANGE TO ALL RAIN. THE ICE PELLETS SHOULD MAKE IT AS FAR NORTH AS ALTOONA-STATE COLLEGE AND WILLIAMSPORT. MUCH NORTH AND WEST OF THERE SHOULD STAY ALL SNOW. FREEZING RAIN SHOULD GET AS FAR WEST AS LEWISTOWN. THE RAP CONTINUES TO SHOW A DRY SLOT COMING IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST THIS EVENING AND AN IMPLIED COMMA HEAD TO BRING MORE SNOW FROM SOUTHWESTERN AREAS...NEAR JOHNSTOWN AROUND 10 PM WHICH MOVES UP THROUGH CLINTON AND NORTHERN LYCOMING COUNTIES BY 5 AM. AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE THE PRECIPITATION COULD TAPER OFF THIS EVENING WITH THE DRY SLOT MOVING INTO SOUTHERN PA AROUND 7-8 PM AND INTO CENTRAL PA AFTER MIDNIGHT. THIS COULD PRODUCE SOME FREEZING DRIZZLE IN SOUTHERN AND EASTERN AREAS WHEN THE SEEDER-FEEDER EFFECT IS LOST. THE COMMA HEAD IN THE 4KM NAM AND 13KM RAP WILL BRING THE SECOND SURGE OF SNOW WHICH WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED OVERNIGHT. TEMPS MAINLY 20S NORTH AND 30S SOUTH AND PERHAPS SOME MID-40S SNEAK INTO LANCASTER COUNTY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Down to 26.8F. Pressure 29.92" and falling rapidly (-0.070"/hr). Windy. Moderate snow now. Sounds like ground reports of sleet approaching mason-dixon line. Wonder how rapidly that will advance northward? >>FWIW--via ChescoPaWx, JB tweeted Harrisburg area gets 4 to 8" with some sleet but no freezing rain. Would be fascinating if we remain 100% frozen for the event around here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
