Watching moderate-heavy bands disappate was brutal. There have been a lot. 2008 Ohio valley blizzard was really bad...watching areas 50-100 miles west get a full fledged blizzard was torturous while I think we got an inch. Last year was awful too but at least I ended up with about 5 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rd9108 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Unless a freak snowstorm shows up before I spring I think this is it. I'll be back in November hopefully with a better long range pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackngoldrules Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Jan 3, 1994. Now that was a storm. We were in a great spot and the big cities to our east got screwed for a change. I picked up 27 inches IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackngoldrules Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Then of course, Feb 5-6, 2010. Hard to see in the pic, but I got 20 inches. The last big one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember leaving for a friends house for a few hours and it was raining and walking out to that. Couldn't believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any place is worse than Pittsburgh, it's north central Ohio outside of the lake effect snow belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would usually get $3-$4 maybe $5 or so for each driveway. Now those driveways would pay prob $20 I remember in early 80's I went to shovel the owners driveway from Scottos Pizza at Century 3. He had a nice new house. He said I'll take care of you after you shovel. There were 2 others with me. We shoveled and in his strong Italian voice said heres a dollar for each of yous... We were so pissed, I think it was like a 6 inch snow. We went and threw a lot of the snow back on his driveway... Good God, you were getting that back in the 70's??? Man did I work cheap shoveling snow then as a kid in the mid-late 80's. I live in town, so a sidewalk usually netted me 50 cents to a dollar. A small driveway was maybe $2. I can remember going out all day long after it snowed when I was 10-11-12 years old, and being tickled to death if I came home with 15-20 bucks! Now I'm almost 40 and I live in the house I grew up in. Bought it after my parents divorced a few years ago. NEVER ONCE has a kid rung my doorbell asking me if he could shovel my sidewalk. The only time these little brats in this neighborhood ring my doorbell is when they do it, then run away and hide behind a parked car so that they can laugh when I answer and nobody's there. I used to do that too though, so I shouldn't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you are saying, I have said before kids are lazy, but having 2 of my own now I have to say, I don't know if I would let them out doing strangers walks with how many weirdos and idiots, bad people there are out there. I mean times have changed since 70's and 80's and it's only going to get worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Gotta love the hole in Allegheny County, just to add insult to injury. I think I'm at the bottom of that "less than 2 inches" hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoraopolisWx Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Definitely a "close the shades storm". Lol Not gonna lie, it sucks missing out again. But at least I can crash out early tonight, knowing there's nothing to track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWS looks primed to further decrease snowfall amounts per latest discussion, which is probably warranted. Early evening update: Have backed off precipitation onset further based on latest trends and consensus of hi-res short-term guidance indicating previous runs underestimated drier air in place. Will hold off on any major adjustments to snow amounts until 00Z runs are in for evaluation...expecting this to be picked up. Probably going to get just enough to make the morning commute miserable tomorrow... only take a coating to a a half inch to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonel717 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 That storm is blowing up to our east. Precip melts away to our west. I was hoping it would under perform, but doesn't look to be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB_01 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Can someone explain why we are getting such a major dry slot? Ive checked the 00z soundings and don't feel like the air is really that dry, yet the NWS keeps talking about the drier than expected air. Maybe i'm missing it.

blackngoldrules Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Radar looks awful for us. Not going to see much. It's like we're getting dry slotted from all over the place. From our south and our west. This will be the final nail in the coffin of a disappointing winter. Come back spring. Rather have the warmth than this crap.
