Itstrainingtime Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 The Euro snow map posted has 6 different contours running through Lancaster county.

I've been disappointed so many times in the past, particularly when I was younger and we seemed to have multiple storms like this each year (one that go snow>ice>rain) we (Lancaster area) always seemed to flip before we were "supposed to." I remember many a forecast for 3-6 or 4-8 down here before a changeover only to get 2" before the pingers would start. So to your point earlier, yes I'm sure Eric's forecast is specific to Lancaster and yes, it will come across as more "negative" than your perception because it's storms like this where you WILL do better than me, and perhaps significantly so. And that's exactly what the Ukie and Euro are currently showing. Anyway - it should be a fun few days. Let's hope we can all enjoy a nice winter storm this weekend.

I identify with the LSV because I have lived much of my life there but technically I am a bit south and west of it so while that EC map has people like Carlisle getting over a foot I am only getting 6-8" so for this specific issue we are in the same boat.

CarlislePaWx Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Thanks, Mike. Great story. I remember cracking up bigtime the day you posted that. It was hilarious. Regarding CAD...I have lived here about 5 miles south of the base of Blue Mountain for the past 7 years and I will say that boy can I hold on to the cold up until the very last minute. It really comes down to how soon the winds mix the warmer air aloft down to the surface. In many ZR events the time of the ZR has very little wind activity. Usually as the event begins to wind down do the winds pick up and then my temp can shoot up very quickly. MDT many times can be 10 degrees warmer than me in CAD events where I'm 31 and they're 41. Microclimates are also exciting to observe all around, and each of us is our own representative of one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
