Temp right at 30.0 degrees with breezy conditions. Winds WNW at 14 gusting to 26 with a fair amount of blowing snow also. It looks like this incoming band is pretty solid. Hopefully it makes it to MDT to pad the stats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 According to the NWS public information statement as reported by a trained spotter, Bloomsburg has 21 inches so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skiier04 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Crazy gradients all around. 15" in Burnham is crazy. That's about 20 miles from here and we have half as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 That map i posted is actually wrong. MDT is at 19.3" officially. 1.1" less than 1993's Superstorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caveman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Probably too much downsloping for KMDT, but it would be nice to get to 20". I'm at moderate snow again with strong gusts with current shower passing through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome!!! You are right, I just watched ABC 27 6pm newscast & during the weather report he said they needed to update the graphic because there was 2.3 before midnight yesterday, to add to the 17 today recorded today, bringing the overall storm total to 19.3 inches! I checked CTP's website & that is what they show for the 2 day total as well. The 19.3 today will rank # 8 all time at MDT. This will then place today's storm just one inch behind the Blizzard of 1993 & PD II in February of 2003 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 This latest snow band is producing moderate snow again for the last 39 minutes or so here in Marysville, & we are just getting into the decent radar returns that are coming through Perry, Cumberland & Adams county. Can MDT make it to 20 inches ? They only need .7 more inches. My car that cleaned off, has another good coating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasnownut Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 I'm not sure where those totals came from , but I can tell you that we got more than 8". I measured around 730 am and had near 10" before too much compaction came. we had several hours of sleet, and then got 1.5" in deformation bands at midday and this afternoon. We definitely stunk up the joint total wise, but it wasnt that bad. Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jns2183 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Anyone have an idea how snow removal is going in downtown Harrisburg?

NortheastPAWx Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 AVP just fell short of the all-timer. Officially 19.5" reported. That should be good for #3 behind 1993 and 1996. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 After several hours of light to moderate snowfall accompanied by extensive blowing of the snow (which made it impossible for me to accurately measure), I am adding 0.7" of new snow to my previous storm total, giving me 16.2" for the storm. I will try to come up with a liquid equivalent estimate a little later this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never cleared my board this morning so compacting this afternoon didn't push me any higher than 17" -- deck had 20" which could have been a little bit from wind blowing snow off roof but I think it was more not having wet snow at the bottom that helped with the compacting -- There looks to have been at least a half inch to inch of new snow since I was last out around 5 though.

Front end loaders worked all day downtown removing snow. HBG is a logistical nightmare for snow removal. People don't realize that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
