mattinpa Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Did any model get the mixing back to the Lehigh Valley correct? I bash the NAM but it was the closest I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Im not sure that snow line gets too far S and E when it starts moving again tbh. Most short range stuff has whatever current precip generally as what most area finish with. Really surprised no warnings for this ice have gone up. This is way worse imo than what 15" of snow could have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Very windy here with blowing and drifting snow/sleet. I'm not sure about blizzard criteria, but at least the wind is present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ej257 snow lover Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 7:45am update. Measured 11.5 inches. Thats 2.5 inches in the past 2 hours. We have stayed all snow so far fingers crossed this could go down as a historic storm for Lehighton/Poconos area. Continued moderate/ to heavy snow. 26 degs.

LVblizzard Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Edging the line of snow and sleet in Allentown. Right now it's staying snow, but I wouldn't be surprised to see that change back and forth throughout the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need to get on my knees to defend a forecast just because they are pros. it is an absolutely terrible forecast and there's been a severe lack of updates. these are just facts. agree with everything in this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Plain crazy seeing all this snow in Three Bridges NJ 30 miles to my EAST. Some of the models showed a warm tongue extending north from the Chesapeake up into PA and going NE they nailed it. Unreal. 24.3F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that it's still an interesting setup, but I'm a dance major -- not a meteorologist or even someone who knows all that much about the way weather works. I enjoy systems like this honestly. It gives you something to track (mix line) after the storm has commenced. Especially if the line collapses south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I don't know how I'm going to get an accurate measurement with all this blowing. Anybody else notice that band of snow/sleet pivoting on radar to our south? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Temp jogged back up to 28F. Now have about 1/2" sleet on top of the earlier compacted rain/snow/sleet crust for a total of 3" so far. Still getting a moderate fzra/sleet mix with occasional fine flakes appearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Wiggum Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 This is crazy but I am actually praying for a dry slot. Storm looks to have slowed considerably. Hrrr showed a brief stall and loop around this hour for a few recent runs. Radar returns are insane with training heavy heavy sleet. We have near pea-sized sleet attm.....like a summer hailstorm. First time I ever remember seeing sleet rates like this. Temp down to 25.7F. Lights going off and on periodically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
