snowNAO Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 It's beginning to move east now...man what a great ending. Here in York College its still coming down but judging by radar should start to wind down any second. We had to of picked up a quick 3 inches EASILY.

AlexP Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Wind has really picked up in Harrisburg, but snow is still light. It's like anticipating a big summer thunderstorm and then watching it skip right past you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauss06 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 can hear it roaring through the trees up the mountain here... just wish that band would have slid a little further west to get over us Would have been nice. Whats coming down is very fine, when i was out 10 minutes ago it look like it was pouring snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well there is definitely a precip shadow effect with Blue Mountain to our east and the ridge along 81 to our west. That has a lot to do with it. Just the reality, we are always going to be on the low end of storms for the area. Its hard for me since I lived in an area that was a snowfall maximum for the region in MD and they are about double my snow this storm and for the season right now. We are looking into moving to the Poconos if I can find a job in the area, or will be back to Manchester MD next year, and I won't lie the weather is a factor in where I want to live. I know that makes me a little crazy but I know what makes me happy and I won't pretend I wouldnt be constantly frustrated living here in winter. I feel you about the weather effect. My primary desire is to live in a place that has the four distinct seasons, no matter what pains come along with them. Plus I myself have been aiming to get to a place which can run up heavy snows instead of this frustration as well (today obviously being an exception). I'm hoping for the Poconos myself sometime in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jims Videos Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 We will end up with an extra inch and change in Hershey. Great storm all in all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping for the Poconos myself sometime in the future. Poconos are a great area, lots to do, not too rural, great snows in the winter, and the cost of living is very low compared to other areas. Where I lived in MD was nice too...the Parrs ridge area of northeast Carroll County would max out in almost any storm that hit the area. They definitely don't get as many smaller snows but if you like big ticket snowstorms that area is about as good as it gets unless you move to central Mass or something.

GrandmasterB Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Just got back in from a walk here in Lititz. Absolutely EPIC twenty minutes out there. Not one, but FOUR times the sky lit up from lightning. Snowing in sheets, visibility wouldn’t have been 200 yards in the daytime. It is POURING snow. Cleared a table before I left and we had an inch and a half when I got back. In 20 minutes. Gusty winds. Absolute best snow walk I’ve ever had.

AlexP Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 We are not lucky tonight around Harrisburg seems. MDT likely won't break double digits. Amazing how that happened after the storm appeared certain to overperform this morning. At least it gets me some meteorological street cred at the office because I told everyone that York would crack 12 inches, but Harrisburg would not.
