pasnownut Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 still snow sleet mix here in Akron. Hoping we flip back over to snow soon. I want to catch some of the good lift before it moves out. Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jns2183 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 It's dumping right now! What's radar looking like? Band setup pretty much centered on I-83 / I-81 axis like what was talked about in CTP AFD a few hours ago. If it can stay around till noon we'll crack 20"Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festus Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Best estimate is about 8" here with heavy sleet the last 2 hours or so. Does not look like we'll make a Lancaster top 10 but epic nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 That's depressing sleet moved as far NW as Manheim. Hope it gets pushed back south soon. Equally sad Clearfield isn't getting the returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 830 obs, 25ºF and moderate snow. Winds are starting to pick up. We're now at the 6" mark so if anything at least warning criteria has been achieved. Best snow bands seem to be residing State College to IPT and southeast to Harrisburg.

CarlislePaWx Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Just measured 1.2" new snow since 8:00 AM in the past 30 minutes. That gives me 13.7" storm total so far. Snowing at 2.5" / hour. Temp dropped to 28.2 degrees (down 0.8 deg in the past 30 minutes) as colder air seems to be filtering back in. Looks amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caveman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The 500 mb low is just a smidge too far north and west relative to the surface development to deliver a statewide major event. Nonetheless, a formidable system to be sure. Both the ECMWF and GFS are in remarkably good agreement on the closed low location later this evening and overnight. Have not had any sleet here in northern York County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been reporting Heavy snow every hour with .25 to .5 mile visibility. The 11z HRRR had MDT getting another 1 inch of QPF by this afternoon.

CarlislePaWx Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I do think Cumberland/Dauphin can reach 20". For those who mixed...I'm sorry! I've been there so many times before. 24 years ago during the Superstorm I got exactly this much snow (13") before it switched to a raging sleet storm for many hours. You guys out here never mixed with that storm. So, I know what it's like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauss06 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 If we stay at these rates we're in now, we'll exceed 20". But "if" is a big word right!?!? "If" my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been watching Pit radar with the more sensitive radarscope radar and it looks like some additional snow is building in western PA with snow also moving in from Ohio. I think you'll eventually make up a little ground with the lingering snow and lake enhancement late today/tonight. And yea wmsptwx is looking pretty good right now as IPT is sitting in some of the best banding. I'm beginning to think they see 20 or so. CTP did up them to 18-24". We just ended up with a heck of a gradient where even though the low ended up west and mixing some of our southern tier, the snow really tapered in the NW zones.

CarlislePaWx Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Just took my 9:00 AM measurement and measured 1.9" of new snow since 8:00AM, storm total now at 14.4". Rate has decreased slightly from about 20 minutes ago, I'd say down to around 1.5"/hour rate. We'll see where things stand at 10. Temp down another 0.4 degrees to 27.6 degrees. Snow definitely dry and not too hard to shovel. Some minor blowing snow beginning to occur here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
