Stinkbugspecialist Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 If this is nuisance. Snow. I'm ready for. A defrost !!! just a cold. Cold winter. I love snow storms more than anyone. I ready to get out and kills some stinkbugs. Even though most are still living in attics and roofs off a lot of people. I'm. Always ready for a snow storm.

psunate1977 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I love snow, but won't get mad at a defrost, My driveway has a 4' x 6' area of ice that we park on and its too big and doesn't melt much with salt and the temps being so cold. I would like to get it melted before someone kills themselves on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSonic Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Outside i have ice chunks on the road, one is so big it's like 4 feet thick. It's been so cold. If we can get some decent snow on Thursday. It will be nice to see warmer temps later next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoraopolisWx Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I found it on Accuweather forum. Not sure who created it. I found that post, it says one of the local Philly TV stations generated it. The graphics resemble WPXI's, I wonder if it's Philly's NBC affiliate.

jwilson Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Site is chugging right now for me, must be a lot of traffic. Most of the models have continued to nudge west a little. It's about that time where models aren't of much use anymore and we'll get nowcasting. Let's just hope we can get one more westward bump and get into the accumulating snows if nothing else.

Thunderhead Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 This map must have been produced by a CBS station. Someone said Philly, so it's likely from KYW-TV3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Need to get rid of that low over the Northern Lakes somehow. Sent from my iPhone Yeah, there always seems to be something that does us in when it comes to these big storms. If it's not the track, it's something like this when we finally get a chance at a decent track. Oh well. It's something we're pretty used to around here. A lot just has to go right for us to hit the jackpot. Just have to continue to live with the multiple nuisance snows we get and hope to get lucky at some point. Better than nothing.Sent from my XT897 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdd9108 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 And with that ladies and gentlemen, I think I am done tracking winter storms. I know we can get nice storms in March but Im sick of this weather. See you all next year, unless we get a 12+ storm then I will stop by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkbugspecialist Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 State college now has a winter storm warning. Up. And noaa. Says. Still don't have a handle on how far west. It's basically unpredictable. If we get. 6 inches or 9 or. A coating or not a flake. That's what makes it fun watching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 Wonder if we hit our last sub zero temp this morning for the winter? One thing that makes missing this storm hard to swallow is that by this time next week we will be in the 40s and 50s, possibly warmer, if things continue to develop as projected. I just feel its a shame to waste the last 10 days of Feb with warmth, save it for the second week of March and just head into Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsteel Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Yeah the trend is still west and the System is slowing down too. But at this point it looks like just A nuisance snow for allegheny county west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkbugspecialist Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Maybee a little surpriser. If we are 18 when it snows. May be. Night time. And colder temps can give 20.1. Ratios. With that and a measly .29 of liquid. We squeeze a half foot out of nothing. Then 80 degrees Two days after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psunate1977 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Thr ride home from work will be weird tomorrow, when I leave work I will probably have bear road, by the time I get to Latrobe it will be slightly snow covered to 5-6" in Ligonier. Got to love Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reduced: 71% of original size [ 780 x 892 ] - Click to view full image Man these storms on the heels of a pattern change can really be beasts. Its frustrating to be so close but so far away on this one. I remember as a kid waking up to busts where it snowed when it wasn't supposed to or didn't when it was supposed to, so despite the improvements made in forecasting this one feels like it wouldn't take much to give someone a surprise.

colonel717 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Maybe we can squeeze out a little more. Looking for any ray of hope we can get a couple inches.... THE LOCAL FORECAST THUS LEANS TWD THE MORE CONSISTENT ECMWF ANDFEATURES MORE WESTWARD...AND PROLONGED SPREAD OF LGT SNOW TWD THEI 79 CORRIDOR AS IS CONSISTENT WITH MSTR AND RELATIVE WARMTHLIFTING INTO THE DEFORMATION ZONE IN THIS TYPE OF SCENARIO. From the Central Thread A COMPARISON OF 12Z/18Z RAOBS TO INITIALIZATION OF THE 12Z MODELSAND THEIR 6-H FORECASTS INDICATE THE GFS/NAM WERE TOO FLAT WITH THELOW-LEVEL THERMAL TROUGH ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE APPALACHIANS ANDDOWNSTREAM THERMAL RIDGE TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST COAST. SATELLITE WATERVAPOR LOOP INDICATED THE NRN STREAM SHORTWAVE TROUGH WAS ALREADYCLOSING OVER ERN NE-KS...WHICH WAS EARLIER/FASTER THAN MOST OF THE12Z GUIDANCE HAD INDICATED. THESE ERRORS PROVIDE EVIDENCE TOWARD AMORE WESTWARD TRACK OF THE COASTAL LOW...CLOSER TO THE PAST FEW RUNSOF THE ECMWF. THE LOW TRACKING RIGHT UP THE COASTLINE WOULD SHIFTTHE AXIS OF HEAVIEST SNOWFALL TOWARD THE BLUE RIDGE AND I-81CORRIDOR...WHERE ISOLATED TOTALS OF UP TO 20 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE ATTHE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. FCST SNOWFALL TOTALS WERE INCREASED TO10-14 INCHES FROM THE FAR WRN SUBURBS OF DC AND BALTIMORE BACK WESTTO THE POTOMAC HIGHLANDS. THIS WESTWARD TRACK WOULD ALSO YIELD MOREMIXING WITH SLEET/RAIN FOR THE I-95 CORRIDOR. THE TRANSITION ISEXPECTED TO OCCUR LATE TNGT IN SRN MD AND THU MRNG NEAR I-95. ALLRAIN OR RAIN/IP MIX EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO THU AFTN FOR THESEAREAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
