zenmsav6810 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Here in Douglassville we have between 2.5"-4" hard to tell with the drifting, huge flakes, heavy snow, variable winds at about 5mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickrd Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 4" easily in Northern Northampton Cty. Heavy Snow! 1"+ last hr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Reilly Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The 4-7" is in Lehigh Valley. The smaller amounts were north of there. This is a REALLY interesting storm. We rarely see anything like this, with a slowly sagging cold front. Normally if we're in the 40s and a cold front moves through, it just dries out as the cold air moves in. Banding and training means some areas probably get 10"+ Glenn Love it Glenn Media Delaware County 28f just measured 5.4" of course away from any areas that potentially could be impacted from any effects of the sun at all.... most interesting thing I see is a humidity level that refuses to move from 95% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treckasec Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 SN+ here. Visibilities must be really low right now. Drifting snow, and I can hardly see outside. 2 inches here now. Just 2 more inches to beat my snow record for this year. Looks like snowfall rates of one inch, possibly a bit more out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svh19044 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Unfortunately around here, it looks like we've been just on the outside of the major bands (which means subsidence). Pretty small flakes. Less than an inch in the last two hours. 2.7" Hatboro, PA, 29F Your tape measure is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brill38 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Hard to believe unless you really got screwed or your ruler is bent the wrong way. In Horsham, a couple miles more N and 4"+ here. 27.5F mod snow. Agreed....easily over 4inches in the Hatboro/Horsham area.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Made my first "official" measurement on my snowboard at 4". My trusty deck table let me down it was under reporting Board cleared. Snow has increased in intensity to mod-heavy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Rates picked up a good bit about five minutes after my last post. I'll re-measure at noon on backup surfaces as it appears consensus says I should have more. I wiped the board clear after my first measure and we've had some decent wind gusts, so it's possible wind had affected it. Down to 27F, as well.

shadow_ Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 i just looked outside and it's barely doing anything and i'm under a moderate to heavy band on the radar, Odd.

RU848789 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 3.25" as of 10 am and it's now 28F. Much smaller, drier flakes - been mostly moderate snow the last hour - just missed that death band to our south. Damn. Still a great storm so far. At least 6" looks pretty likely... 4" on the ground as of 11:15 am and it's now 27F and snowing moderately. At this point, I'm expecting 7-8", based on radar trends (and now the upgraded snowfall maps by Mt. Holly putting me in the 6-8" range) - looks like at least another 3-5 hours of ~0.75"/hr snowfall on the way. NW extent of the snowfall has only moved SE about 30-40 miles over the past 3-4 hours, from the Scranton area to the Mt. Pocono area, when it was expected to have sunk SE much further by now. And there's plenty of subtropical moisture streaming up towards us - if it doesn't get shunted SE faster, we could actually get 10" or more in most of the area. I know radar trend analysis isn't the best way to forecast, but it just doesn't look like it's going to end that quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpantz Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 i just looked outside and it's barely doing anything and i'm under a moderate to heavy band on the radar, Odd. Oh, crap - really? I was hoping that band was going to get the snow to resume here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
