Voyager Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I feel bad for you guys in zr zone and losing power. Hope it doesn't take too long for restoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 31.1 here. I have power for now. Ice is so thick there are ruts in the road. Trying to figure out when to leave for work. My dad apparently felt like going for a drive in that mess down in Lebanon County...he got to work a bit ago and said roads are horrendous. Saw a few transformer flashes on the way. Light sleet and some mangled flakes here now, a fresh inch of snow since I cleared my "snow board" (top of my RAV4) around 5AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternUSWX Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 My county is good with not loosing power it seems. York county not so much. I probably have more ice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lte5000 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Lost power around 6:00 north of Myerstown. Thankfully we do have a generator... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternUSWX Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 How much are you up to? 2 inches? Haven't been out lately. Road is covered in like 3" of water. But, the tree out my back window is nearly touching the ground now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllWeather Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Numerous power flashes while taking the dogs out. Very eerie feeling. Sidewalks/roads are slushy, which is good for traveling. But the trees have big time ice on them and I've heard 3 big trees come down in the farm next door. I'm located just outside of Lancaster, and measured just over 0.30" of accretion. Worried about the lighter returns to our west and hoping temps bump above freezing! Edit: Fortunately, I still have power. Flickering at times though.

pawatch Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Good morning! Sorry to hear some of you lost power! Just had the dog out....7" of snow and still snowing hard...wet snow. Cup of coffee and then clean driveway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scummyratguy Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 It seems like the trees are popping more frequently. Heard a transformer blow but didn't see the flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllWeather Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 It seems like the trees are popping more frequently. Heard a transformer blow but didn't see the flash. That sound is one of the freakiest sounds I've ever heard. I remember Irene popping transformers near my in-laws house, insanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick G Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 change over just happened here. Looks like 8 inches of snow. I'll post picts later. The dog didn't want to go into the snow. IT was up to his neck. Wife (SWMBO) will not let me out to take picts or even clear snow. I had major spinal surgery almost two weeks ago. Back to bed for a while.

PennMan Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Light sleet and freezing rain in Bellefonte. Still at 23°. This should be the last of the steady precip...maybe some light sleet and freezing drizzle throughout the morning. Storm total 5.7" here...not bad. Would have broken 6" easily if we hadn't had that lull around 1-2AM. It has compacted down to just above 5", solid 8" on the ground that probably has >1" of liquid in it.
