KamuSnow Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Precipitation getting close enough to parts of the area to start some obs. Wide range of possibilities across the CWA, here's hoping everyone gets something! Actually getting light pixie dust here, to the point of a light dusting on the driveway, even with nothing really showing on radar. That hasn't happened in a while, where the driveway showing white was my first clue it was snowing. 28F currently, might be difficult staying below freezing here today, we shall see. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting high in the truck I can see what people are doing, and a good 50 to 60 percent are doing something on their phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAM really pushes waa into all of Lehigh County and Northampton now and I dont think the warm push is finished yet. We will see snow on the backside but doesnt look like alot. Not as much as advertised say 18 hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking more about "no accumulation" than pixie dust falling as what will likely be posted a lot. If trends continue, we may not even see a coating down here...it will end as snow but that may only last 15 minutes. I think you mentioned last march's storm above or in the other thread but I totally get the same vibe. There is nothing preventing warm air from surging inland and the meso's will likely have a better grasp on that. This may be the first event that trends away from us as opposed to trending better like every other event this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkd Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 C.A.P.E in the mid-atlanic forum just gave a nice compliment to Mt.Holly for their forcast discussion a while back thinking the most likely area for heavier precipitation would be northern areas due to coastal development.

anthonyweather Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Snow is really picking up here. Seem to be under some elongated heavier return. Could be the "jackpot" zone. Moderate snow here.Sent from my LG-H871 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 The 18 hours of light snow zone ended up being 25 miles away but it is verifying 37.6F now busting high on temp .10" dusting in the early am wasn't expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the sun come out for you? Its a cloudy 32 degrees here so I'd guess you have sun or at least partly sunny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From when I've gone to take a look though it seems we've had sun poking through pretty much all afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up here it has snowed various intensity all day long. It never actually stopped...although at times it was more "flurryish" than steady. I really thought we'd get into a lull for a few hours, but...it just kept going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 The precip has literally stopped right at Fleetwood PA on the radar lol. I know most is supposed to come later with the coastal development but I can't help but be irritated that it has stopped 5 miles to my west whether it is just flurries or not.
