RitualOfTheTrout Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Still looks ok for 2-4 for most areas per HRRR. I had a bad feeling about those 4-6 inch totals with the NAM and other short range models not looking as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Yep. I am expecting 1-2. I wasnt buying into those high totals. None of the short term models were hinting at anything like that. I wasn't either. Besides the models, this system just doesn't look very impressive. Scattered activity circulating around the low. Not a lot of juice with it. Not enough for this area anyway as we're on the northern fringe of anything decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoraopolisWx Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 The latest NWS AFD still likes tomorrow for development of steadier precip. It seems at this point in time, how the H5 low will be tilted. The NAM is slightly west of south, while the GFS is more east of south, which would aid in the better flow of moisture as mentioned in the AFD.

north pgh Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I have had a nice band sitting over me for the last several hours. One inch of snow and looks nice sticking to everything (trees etc) On my way to Irwin and then up to Tarentum. Hope the roads stay clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 The Euro parallel looks good for the next threat. Inland runner and 12+. Still almost a week out but good to see some guidance in our favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the radar it looks like around Tarentum \ New Ken area has had a nice band hovering there for about an hour now. Curious how much snow has fallen.

colonel717 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I Remember that storm , one of my Favorites, I remember thinking, these kind of storms were going to be the norm for us given the back to back years were big storms. But had to wait 16 years to get another 20 incher. I used to love using The Weather Channel 7 day extended forecast back then and always watching for the Heavy Snow depiction.
