If this doesn't make you sick I don't know what will! This reminds me of a storm we had 2 years ago, were I got literally a quarter inch of snow, but Greensburg got like 8. I ended up having the day off work and didn't even have to shovel anything.

Thanks to guys in the Central PA thread for the county overlay.

Looks like I should head to my in-laws in Johnstown according to that map.

I live in Cranberry but spend most of my time out in Woodland Hills at the GF's house.  I could see 4" here and 8" out by her. But I still have this feeling we get a jump NE and everyone Butler county south gets in on things. We had a slight tick NW in the models, we see this over a cpl more runs and maybe time to get excited.  I just remember the big one a few years ago, up to 12 hours before Demetrius Ivory on TV was saying..Nothing to see here move on. I actually posted a screenshot of his snow map showing 6-8" and well I got 30".  Don't celebrate or get all Eeyore this far out.

Yuck. Still so close, but these types of systems never seem to bump north for us. Also the crazy solution that it showed last night with the CCB making it back here is gone, kind of like I expected.

It is just amazing that we are always either 100 miles too far north or 100 miles too far south. This might be mean spirited, but I hope dc torches and it rains on them.

Class GFS nonsense. Jumps the energy out too fast and too far east. With the amount of cold on land and the very warm water, the natural baroclynic zone will along the coast. You can see it try and reform a SLP farther west, but it messes up the QPF fields. I would not get discouraged by this. As it gets closer in time, the GFS will fix this shearing out issue  AccuChris at Accuweather forums

Quoting people from accu forums?

Not liking the trend of shearing out the NW side of the precip.  Starting to doubt expectations at this point even in my further southern zone.  While not impossible it seems somewhat unlikely we get enough of a northward trend to make it historic around here.  Meanwhile D.C. keeps getting bombed.

 

I need to learn my lesson and keep model views to within 48 hours only.

Crept a little north about 15-25 miles, 8+ line up around Allegheny county line now.  Greensburg, McKeesport could be in the money as could be Plum, Murraysville.  Still think the sweet spot is going to be over Deep Creek, move that final map 50 miles NW.  I am in full weenie mode and can't believe a storm will dump 1.5 feet on DC and give us 3", defies historical precedent. I respect the models but they are often wrong, sometimes badly.
