Well Wxsim with all 12z data now has moderate snow getting underway just before dawn with 2 or 3" accumulating before a mix of snow/rain during the afternoon hours and then back to heavy snow by evening rush hour with another 6" or 7" falling. Total snowfall now in the 8" to 11" range for NW Chester County PA

Interesting.  I think your Wxsim has a pretty good idea about tomorrow night, but I'm very suspicious of anything more than a coating from any front-end snow (south of the Lehigh Valley, of course).

Now kind of stupid question. If it comes down heavy enough through-out could this stay all snow as it keeps the column cold enough to be a snow pasting?

the issue one the euro would be the bl temps to start off. The northern stream position is hurting areas further south. Unless that storm really nukes a lot earlier which isn't likely you will lose qpf on rain.

The question is where does that set up.  Trying to figure out when roads will get bad in PA/NJ tomorrow.
