Quakertown needs snow Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 The usual model runs showing up with a lot of varied depiction for potential storm next week. It will be a roller coaster ride for next few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeymac5306 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 It's looking pretty wet at the end of the month/ first week in April as well. Pretty decent rain storm around the 31st. My yard needs to dry out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plokoon111 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Somebody needs to change the thread title to 'Looking foward to an fast spring and early winter.' But from the looks of things it is quite a mixed bag of events coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeymac5306 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 The next two weekends (3/29-3/30, and 4/4/-4/6) are not looking good for any outdoor type fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds~69 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 The next two weekends (3/29-3/30, and 4/4/-4/6) are not looking good for any outdoor type fun! Trout season opens 3/29 (looks like rain/50's) in SE PA so the weather will suck but on the flip side it will keep other people away....more fish!

RedSky Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Alright why is the GFS hinting at snow this sunday lol, just a couple days ago this was a nice but wet 60F spring weekend. Throw in the cold suppression machine we been plagued with this weekend could snow with south trends * GGEM is on board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTA66 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 GGEM has an April HECS (6-10") for our area APril 5th lmao. So ... 4"-6" along the Jersey shore. A trace NW of the city. And Ray goes with C-2" for Trenton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattMal88 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 HM said he loves the set up for something in the 4/5-10 timeframe in the MA forum. He also said that he hated the dates as far as getting snow for obvious reasons so who knows maybe there's still one more chance left for someone to see some snow fly, whether it would stick or not who knows lol.

Harbourton Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Storm signal is out there again in early April as the teleconnections are in our favor with the NAO FINALLY going negative. Just to give some context to HM's prediction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it ever would snow in April this year would be the year....its not impossible though, but highly unlikely in the city...Today's EURO looks close for the 4-5th storm, a bit better 50/50....You can always get those wacky changeover events like April 97.

MattMal88 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Im not sure of the year but it was within the last five or six years, I was trout fishing in pennypack creek and it was april and it snowed hard for about 15-20 mins and coated everything and tens mins later the sun came out and everything melted in minutes lol. It was one of the coolest things I've experienced catching trout in a snow squall I'd love to repeat that this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not recall the years but do remember several April snow falls, several with 2-4 inches, in NJ . Also remember snow in the Poconos for my kids birthday in May....squall.....quick coating.

Same here, I remember a handful from over the years, mainly during the 1st week of April...and usually a surprise or overperformer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 While snow certainly can happen in April, its relatively uncommon. At both PHL and ABE, the probability of an inch or more of snow in any given April is about 17%. That translates to 22 times in 130 years at PHL and 14 times in 81 years at ABE. When glancing at the models looking for snow threats, another thing to keep in mind is that the critical thicknesses don't mean quite the same during April as they do in mid-winter. Typically in mid-winter, you first tend to look for that 540 dM line on the 1000-500 mb thickness charts (usually shown along with sea level pressure and QPF). By this time of year, 540 usually doesn't cut it.... the 534 line is your new best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamuSnow Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I was going to say about every 5 years or so on average, which is close to the 17%. So when was our last one, heh heh? Edit - looks like 2003 for PHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
