iceman56 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 2.7 in NW Chesco this morning, 12" of snow/ice on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamuSnow Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Went from 11F at 11 pm last night to 9F at 5 am this morning, then 7F at 6:30 am. Not much drop between 11 and 5, did we have some clouds pass through? Pulled it out at the end though getting to 7F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like there were a few, not much. http://aviationweather.gov/adds/satellite/displaysat?region=BWI&isingle=mult_big&itype=ir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCT777 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 0.4 for a low in Spring Mount, PA at 7:15 AM. Car didn't want to start. I had to give it a few tries and promise to take it to a warmer climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbourton Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Looking at the 12z NAM and the 12 inches it is predicting, reminded me that even with a great set up I'll probably never see anything like the '96 storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattinpa Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Hmm since this is the banter thread, I will assume based on the models that for Royersford a moderate snowstorm with some mixing is the best call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattinpa Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 What is your definition of "moderate snowstorm"? 3-6, 4-8 type of deal. Of course hoping for higher which could still happen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 3-6, 4-8 type of deal. Of course hoping for higher which could still happen.. I still think 6-12 is reasonable. Going higher than a foot invites bust potential. Not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the 12z GGEM and Euro come close to reality, then yes. Probably would be some rain in there, although it would be light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harbourton Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 If TTN stays in the 12z Euro warm sector long enough or its as dry as the 12Z GFS my 4-6 inch may pan out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Yeah, I'm not staying up tonight for Euro. This one is done...hooked, cooked, and flooked. Whaddya mean? The RGEM, UKIE, and NAM are all large hits. The GFS has a perfect track (but poor qpf reflection). And the GGEM and Euro havent come out yet. There is plenty of time still for things to change a little more for the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plain and simple, I can't believe the amount of time I invest in this especially when I have a small business to run. I get hooked so easily, and lost the faith. But, of course I'm awake and waiting for the euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pohopoco Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 When 'All' this stuff(models,etc)started flooding out becoming available to anybody it was and is still very easy to get all wound up/down up/down yo-yoing w/each and every model cycle...I found I was getting my hopes yo-yoed w/them...as of this close to a event I've found a recipe that has worked for me...the best minds w/the best hardware/software are probably employed at the WPC or connecter site w/it...for nearly a week in their discussions they've had this event IN the sights,Even though stating thing's at times that made me realize maybe they didn't even believe it...a couple of the discussions were even by PK,I could even tell by his unique prose,before I saw his sig...Bottom Line: 1st thing up I check the short range,than extended range discussions and for some, even the Heavy Snow one...then look at projected QPF fields and then percentages of X amount of Snow or Fr.Rain falling out to 3 days(and they've even got some new stuff that is user tweakable)...Finally, I look at the LOW plots and Pressures...IF you've been following along it's pretty easy to see if things are trending good or bad for You're spot...IF you want a absolute IMBY,well than pay and pray and suffer/rejoice w/the bad/good...Just thought I'd throw this down before I head to bed,unlike my aforementioned early day's with "too much information,runnin thru my brain,too much information drivin me insane"(From the Police, Synchronicity I believe)...This close in It's watch your fav.Radar,Sat.'s w/WV and such and Try to enjoy the show...Btw were at 4 dgs here w/a light continuos N flow of fresh cold flowing/draining in after -2 last night...

Pellice Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 One of the plusses of a frozen pre-dawn darkness on a clear night like this is a great nighttime sky. Take a look at Venus, the brilliant morning star in the east right now. It is so bright that it almost shows a disk (and does, with binoculars).
