The Iceman Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 12z euro smacks the area with an inverted trough on mon-tues. too bad these are difficult to forecast 48 hours out let alone 96 hours+. We'll see where we are on Sunday but the chance is there. we sometimes get crushed by IVT's ala that eagles lions game a few years ago where much of SE PA received 4-8 inches.

Not sure I would say the Euro "smacks" the area, though 2-4" this winter certainly is a modest event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on where you live, in my opinion 3-5'' inches is a modest event, but it could be 6-12'' if i lived in the mountains. Based on what i'm seeing with the models they've been flipping back and forth a few times so it's hard to get a spot-on idea but the most i think seems realistic is a half foot or less for here in early February, then the chance could rise by mid-Feb for a decent but not blockbuster class snowstorm with 8-12'' in the realistic range at this point. I would be surprised if the Mid-atlantic region gets a full on raging blizzard with feet of snow not inches due to the trough being really far east and expecting nothing more than a few clippers tbh. The Nina climo doesn't really support big 2010-like snowstorms, but you can't rule anything out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Big difference in high temps today across the region with NW Chesco at 33.4 while down in Sea Isle City NJ they hit 44.3. So far this month we are running at 1.3 degrees below normal regarding temps...it will be close but we may just finish with our 3rd straight below normal month. Snowfall wise through today we are at 17.3" for the season which is only 0.6" above normal....we need another 1.5" during the last week here in January to finish at normal (18.8") of normal seasonal snow to date here in Chester County. The good news for those of you that like snow....February on average is our snowiest month of the year averaging out at 13.3" of snow (1983 to Present) here in Chester County....we shall see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 While next week looks 'interesting' on the ops, Im not thrilled. Getting an IVT to produce is a 20% shot at this range and getting a heavy rain changing to wet accumulating marshmallow snow late in the week is even a bigger challenge. These are our transition events with the true threat period being between Feb 10-16 give or take a day on either side. Teleconnections spike mid month with other key indices such as QBO and MJO looking favorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I will sacrifice snow for the next 5 years just for an Eagle's win. I hope the players are as hungry as I am for the championship.....Im sure they are. Weather is a side thought the next 10 days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Looks like a 2-3" deal....I'll take it.We take. The pattern relax is wrapping up quickly....there is light at the end of the tunnel. If we can score the last week of the month, that's a bonus as February looks active. Hopefully we end up on the right side of the storm tracks as we press forward.

ChescoWx Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Latest Wxsim has some light snow starting toward Tuesday AM with the snow ending by 2pm with around 2" of snow accumulation. For the Friday event it has snow arriving by 6am and ending toward evening with 3" or 4" of snow accumulation for NW Chester County Pa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Here in NW Chester County we are now only 0.6 degrees below normal for January Temps through yesterday with likely a last AN day today. Should finish up just below normal. Also of interest we are now at 17.3" for snow season to date which is 0.7" below normal snowfall for January to date (18.0"). We will need another 1.5" with the Tuesday event to finish up at average through January of 18.8" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fields27 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 12z gfs continues the nice little inverted trough setup end of the month but completely loses the Friday deal. I was worried about this threat. These frontal boundary snows seem to always dry out closer to the event. Granted it's only one model one run. See if it's back by 18z.
