Freezing drizzle here and cars/parking lot froze over I was at the 3:00PM show and when we left (you were probably arriving) the parking lots were mostly slush and some snow.

Big Jims Videos Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Just left later TSO concert in Hershey... Freezing drizzle here and cars/parking lot froze over I live across the street from there and can confirm My car is completely frozen over. Still a light freezing mist after the heavier batches around 730 pm. Sidewalk is a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeffsvilleWx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Isn't that warning amounts for Lanc? Just under. Anything over a half inch is warning, I believe.

JamieOber Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Too early to begin discussing next weekend's threat? It's pretty interesting on the Euro. It misses us but holy ****, is the airmass cold. Lots of time for it to tick north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeffsvilleWx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I hope those drivers are better than the idiots here. Thinking I might just call off. I only work 6 hours due to evening classes and I have a few hours of vacation time left for the year. No sense taking unnecessary risks. I'll make a decision at 530 tomorrow morning.

EasternUSWX Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 21 at my house, if we get some freezing rain it will be ugly! If that precip. from Tenn, KY, AL, MS completely misses us I will eat my hat! How do you like your hat served? lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Is that b/c of the track or just that it will vanish over the mountains? B/c tracking the motion with a straightedge would hit into State College. Track. It's not moving in a straight line, for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F5TornadoF5 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Freezing drizzle continues to fall. About 1/8th of an inch of glaze on any untreated surface right now. Was just skating on the Old Main Patio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 MAG - any thoughts on Tuesday? We have hope or is that yet another one for the I-95 crowd... Just catching your post from earlier haha. Well, the NAM of course continues to be the best looking model, delivering at least a couple inches of snow to most of Central PA. 0z GGEM and GFS are fairly similar, getting some precip (light snow amounts) mainly into the southeastern quarter of PA (more moderate around Philly). 21z SREF probs seem to favor eastern PA as well with about 30% probs of 1"+. Similar probs in SW PA as well up to about Pittsburgh. Central seems to be in a bit of a hole. New Euro didn't seem to have very much looking at text data, places like MDT and LNS only had about a tenth of QPF. Attm I'm not expecting too much if anything out of it, maybe a period of light snow that doesn't amount to much. Not completely discounting the NAM solution though, we certainly could see a zone where a couple inches fall. Will have to see what the rest of todays model runs do with it. Speaking of the 0z Euro, it's pretty darn cold later this week.. I think UNV had two nights with 4 for a low and Thursday was in the mid teens for a high.. Also has the potential weekend system affecting PA with, for now, lighter precip that is mainly snow. GFS had this system in this timeframe as well. Gonna be the usual deal with it being a few days before we have an idea on what is going to go on with that. And lastly, it's still about 25 degrees here. And the constant freezing drizzle this evening has turned the snow into a hard surface you can almost walk on top of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Less than an inch of snow with round one, and got pretty much sideswiped by the round two freezing rain. Judging by my wife's wash lines, we got less than 0.1" of ice accrual. It seems as though whatever might come tomorrow (Tuesday) could quite possibly do nothing more than give the area a glancing blow. I just have to wonder if this is going to be a recurring theme this winter. As I took a first look at the radar this morning, it made me think back to a few of the summer/fall events that we had, and the same thing pretty much happened. My job as a truck driver is to haul spring water from Tamaqua down to the Lehigh Valley in Trexlertown. There were a number of storms where it would either be drizzling or not raining at all at the spring in Tamaqua, but by the time I got to the Lehigh Valley, it would be raining quite steadily, and sometimes downright heavy. Coincidence? Perhaps, but it happened enough for me to wonder if it's some kind of pattern, and will it continue, to some degree, throughout the next few weeks/months....

NeffsvilleWx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 The dogs struggled to stay upright on our walkway, and the lab/pitbull mix could stand on the crusty snow.

AllWeather Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Ended up with 2.8" of snow followed by just shy of 2/10" of freezing rain accumulation. Main roads in/around Lancaster are fine, but the side streets are still very slick. Snow that fell is now concrete and the dogs are no longer having fun in it. Another shot of possible accumulating snow coming tomorrow will make the "concrete paste" even more pasty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllWeather Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 My parents in Cecil Co, Maryland (last stop on I-95 before you head into Delaware) ended up with 9.5".

AllWeather Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Most models are now on-board for accumulating snows from this second wave that will arrive tomorrow. As of now, the sweet spot is once again in MD/DE, but some accumulating snows could be possible as far north as I-80. Here's a look at the Canadian: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cashtown_Coop Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 3.8" of snow (0.24" liquid equiv) followed by 0.10" of freezing rain (0.19" liquid) for 0.43" total liquid equiv. Snow depth is a solid 3" with a heavy crust on top. Allweather, good call on that megaband yesterday. You said anywhere from the turnpike to Baltimore and it set up right in between. I dont know what I would have done if those crazy rates made it here and I ended up with 8-10". I'm still happy with this event and CTP nailed it down here.
