Animal Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 Longitude may play a factor as well... Give it time. Your elevation will eventually help you No worries. You only live once I am told. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 I have no horse in this race. Come on over and enjoy the pinging. Lol. You have to be about five seconds from flipping.

NepaJames8602 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 This is the longest transition ever, don't let that mix line fool you. You will not go from rain to snow in an instant. I have been mainly sleet with a few flakes mixed in since 9 pm here in East Central Pike county. Temp is 31 degrees with a nice coating on the deck here at 1,230 feet.

Guest Patrick Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 It's absolutely awesome outside right now... about 60% rain, 30% sleet, and 10% snow. and it's heavy... this isn't a light mix... it's coming down hard man. I don't understand enough about this sport to comprehend how i am frozen over here. You have a few hundred feet on me up there.

I don't understand enough about this sport to comprehend how i am frozen over here. You have a few hundred feet on me up there.It might be because you're under heavier echoes so there's more dynamic and evaporational cooling from upward vertical motion and precipitation intensity.

Are you close to that locaion? I love Milford and the Lake Wallenpaupuck area. I'm roughly 10 min south of Hemlock farms, I live right off of 739. I'm sure those higher ridges in Hemlock Farms at 1,500 to 1,600 feet have been snowing for at least an hr now. I just changed over to mainly moderate snow now. That radar is zipping along though, hopeful of a few good hours of snow now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice the elevation difference in your area when I travel from the Delaware River in Milford or Dingmans Falls and travel North and West along route 739 or route 6.

I notice the elevation difference in your area when I travel from the Delaware River in Milford or Dingmans Falls and travel North and West along route 739 or route 6. Didn't realize Hemlock Farms had such a high elevation Not a problem! Ohh yes, within a span of roughly 10-12 miles, elevations can go from as low as 400-500 feet along the Delaware river/Milford area, to as high as 1,500-1,600 feet heading north up 739. It's an awesome site during elevation snowstorms! You have some very nice ridges in Hemlock Farms, they get their fair shair of snow. Would not be surprised if they manage a low 60's seasonal average. Typically whenever I get snow, I know they easily have a few more inches than me. If you want to see some real beautiful elevations, head sw of Lake Wallenpaupack near Promise Land state park area, there is quite a few 1,800 to 2,100 foot ridge lines. Have you ever been to High Knob right off of 402 near Pecks Pond? If not, check it out next time on a clear day. When you leave the backside of Hemlock Farms, hang a left and go north on 402, you'll see a sign for it on the left. To the top of the ridge it's 2,050 feet. On a clear day, it's been said you can see the high peaks of the Catskills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still haven't had a full transition yet Same here, had a heavier burst of what I thought was a transition to snow, but it's back to mainly sleet. The back edge is already in eastern Central Pa, i don't think I'll get much over an inch honestly when it does go over. This stuff is flying n.e and will be out of here in a few hrs.
