wstaude Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Very heavy snow + sleet in the west end. Edit after stepping outside again: I haven't seen sleet/snow this heavy in 15 years. 35-40 dbz looks to continue for at least an hour here, possibly longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 biggest flakes ive seen all winter.. already an inch here too as well When you see those big flakes, you know the battle is on between the warmer air and cold air. Let's see how long we can hang on to this before the warmer air eventually wins out. I've had sleet mixing in at times in Bethel along with the big flakes.

KPITSnow Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Insane rates. Comparable to 4 years ago. Probably 2-3 inches an hour and 1/8 mile vis with no wind even.if we hold on to snow for even an hour or two we will all see 6 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plumres Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 NWS has no mention of snow in their forecast overnight in Plum? It does not snow much harder then it is now in Pittsburgh. Around 2 inches of snow and 28 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkbugspecialist Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 This looks like it could be all over by 4 am. Or so with 5-8 inches Now casting. Unless this back fills. I don't c it happening. If it was going to get warmer it would have changed by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelCity08 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Is that the end of the snow? It very well could be. NWS called for snow from 10pm-1am. If we do go all sleet from here on out they nailed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mailman Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 From PBZ... .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...1245AM UPDATE...HAVE MADE ONLY MINOR CHANGES WITH THIS UPDATE.PRIMARY CHANGE WAS TO MAKE MINOR CHANGES TO HOURLY TEMPERATURETRENDS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...WITH WARMER AIR BEING JUST ATOUCH SLOWER MOVING IN FROM THE SOUTH. THINK THIS MAY DELAY ACHANGEOVER TO RAIN BY AN HOUR OR TWO SOUTH AND EAST OFPITTSBURGH...BUT OTHERWISE TEMPERATURES WERE ON TARGET AND EXPECTTHAT GENERAL PRECIPITATION TYPE TRENDS WILL CONTINUE ASFORECASTED.
