CoraopolisWx Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Yeah, probably everyone will see something tomorrow. Looking ahead however, I belive a decent torch, with a couple of strong central plains storms, will be needed to reset the pattern to a more amplified look. This is probably our best chance at a real widespread snowstorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably our best chance at a real widespread snowstorm. Things seem to be pointing towards a possible reload. I'd be up for one more window of opportunity if it can happen very end of Feb into the first week or so of March. Then again, if it was a bomb that bullseyed us I'd take it in May lol This torch will be the great equalizer, which makes it a bit easier to swallow. Areas especially South of here will be close to bare ground next weekend. Still, if you get Thundersnow, or 2-3 inch per hour rates who cares if its gone soon after.

SirSonic Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I wouldn't be shocked if we get some over performing snowfall, it will be a close one, if we get a few inches out of it i will be happy. I am looking forward toward the torch. We get some nice spring like storm systems from the Midwest, pumping up some spring weather. We could be talking about severe thunderstorms in a week or so. There seems to be some moisture return from the gulf late next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChalkHillSnowNut Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 This certainly has been an interesting storm to follow Pax...euro never waivered and GFS and NAM finally came around after game time....we'll see what unfolds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsteel Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Well it looks like the cutoff is going to go right through Allegheny county. C-1" for Pittsburgh, 1-2" for East Allegheny County, and 3-5" for Eastern Westmoreland County. Hardly anything North and west of Pittsburgh.

north pgh Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I guess I am suffering from Winter burnout. I wish we were getting the storm however I am tired of shoveling and the bitter cold. I have been trying to get over this never ending cold and illnesses. I am looking forward to taking some walks with warming temperatures in the coming weeks. I have even been thinking of the humid nights and storms. Maybe we can get a couple more good snows but I wasn't expecting this storm to move West and it didn't. It is funny how it seems that when we are in the bullseye 5 days out the storm moves away but when we need the storm to move it locks in and stays away. Just our luck on the big snows.

jwilson Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Light snow here with a serene dusting. At least we got something. 25F Better returns so close yet so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Same thing as last week, left my house with little other than flurries flying, about 10 miles South roads were covered with a coating. Looks like about .5 - 1 inch on the ground here in Greensburg so far. Looking at the radar you would think that swath of snow to the South was going to pivot NW, but it just looks like it hit a Wall.

You are right. Have seen this twice already this winter. Barely a light flurry here in the north hills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psunate1977 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Roads are horrible in Central-eastern Westmoreland County. Had 2" when I left my house. Roads weren't bad, but from Westmoreland Mall on 30 was terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonel717 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 What a terrible commute. Getting out of Bethel was a nightmare. Terrible back ups on Clifton and McMurray. We had about a 1/4 inch of snow are your freaking kidding me. Meanwhile my brother in Delaware had his 3rd 10+inch snow and 4th 8+ inch while we struggle to with a 1/4 inch...

johnswahoo Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 If it wasn't for the clipper system that is moving south east out of Canada for tomorrow nights and early Saturday's weather, this system would have spread to Central Ohio. If you look at last night's satellite, you could see how compact the front was and how, just over our area the leading edge of air was butting up to the storm system. Some might remember in 1994, the storm system was very similar. The Airport in Pittsburgh received about 3 inches of snow while places like Greensburg and North Huntingdon got 24 inches. Throughout the winter, from downtown Pittsburgh and west, we have been nickeled and dimed to death this winter. From Grove City north they have had some very nice storms, and Cannonsburg south, they have had a few storms that brought nice snowfalls...Greensburg and east but that is always the case as they back up to the mountains. Here is what I see, a decently wet spring for the entire area, when we got rain because the cold air was cut off over our area, the precipitation did not cut, it expanded and we got decent rainfall amounts. The colder it got, the less snow we received in the western part of the city. If we thought winter was brutal, I believe from previous years when we have had winters like this, the Ohio Valley and area near I-80 will ripe for very tornadic weather in the latter portion of spring. I'll try to dig up some charts from 78-79---93-94 to collaborate this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psunate1977 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 NWS is saying snow is suppose to continue most of the day, if that is true noway we only get 2-4" here. I'm thinking close to 8-12". We already have 2-3" and it's only 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm working in Greensburg as well, just off of route 30 before the Mall, and I'd say light to moderate snow, but certainly not heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psunate1977 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Possibly. I think NWS busted on this one big time especially East. Westmoreland and Fayette Co prob should have had warnings. Think by end of the day they will see 6-8" + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rdd9108 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 So I dont know what is wrong with me why I cant stay away but wow did we miss a big one. Snowfall rates up to 2-4 hr and some places have 16 inches already. I guess its just not our year for big snowfall. I was watching Joe Bastardis daily video and March may look up for us in the East. We first have to deal a decent warmup but it will be shortlived. The teleconnections are looking like =PNA, --AO and -NAO. He said he thinks we see a 15-20 day of some crazy weather in March. I just hope we can squeeze a 8 inch storm before winter is over, but shorts and t shirts sound pretty good about now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe how 20 degrees doesnt feel all that bad anymore. Our bodies have adapted to this bitter cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
