JamieOber Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Down to 35 this morning, cooler than I expected. SSame. My frost hardy stuff survived our light frost since they are shielded from the first am sun and the frost melted before it hit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 It is indeed tantilizing to see such. A favorable patttern in the short term, but I feel this is transient at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 It is indeed tantilizing to see such. A favorable patttern in the short term, but I feel this is transient at best. Euro weeklies seem to go zonal with normal temps after Nov. 1, from what I am reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 It is indeed tantilizing to see such. A favorable patttern in the short term, but I feel this is transient at best. This cold pattern setting up definitely doesn't look to be of the transient variety, or at least one where we have a two day cold shot and its back to normal or above normal. This is looking more like at least a several day thing if not a week or so. With that said, while this may or may not end up being something that perhaps sets the tone on what we could expect when we get into actual winter... I'd rather see this developing late Nov going into December over now going into November. As for sensible weather with this upcoming unsettled pattern, I'd say it's about a given as it looks right now that portions of northern PA and probably down into the Laurels are going to see some flakes by late next week, with a decent chance of some snow mixing in just off the mountains in true central PA. And I'm impressed with how much the models sustain a very cold NW to WNW flow considering the time of the year. Both the GFS and Euro keep 850 temps under -5ºC for a good stretch in western Penn heading from Thursday into the weekend behind the potential developing coastal storm. CTP keeping on the down low for LES snow potential for the time being as this is still 5+ days away. But I wouldn't be surprised if the NW snow belt locations down into the Laurels (depending on flow) ended up with a decent early season LES/orographic event. Temps during the daytime could temper that threat, but I don't think it's unreasonable to think that folks with good elevation could end up with a few inches of snow. It would be picking up right where things left off this spring with portions the Laurels sustaining a snowpack right into the beginning of April off an epic run of winter weather up there in March.

Voyager Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Not bashing CTP by any means, but it looks like an almost sure fire bet to go below forecast. Currently 37 here in Tamaqua and the forecast low is 36. Overnight Increasing clouds, with a low around 36. Light northwest wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieOber Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Snow/rain showers and snow showers in the Port Matilda forecast through Thursday night, best chance Thursday night. Not big chances, 30% Thursday night but this sort of pattern usually gives us our first flakes. Might be a dusting five miles up the road on Flat Rock, about 2200'. Probably will look like a blizzard on the 511 Traffic cams up on 22 west of Altoona, per usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
