I'm trying to determine when the rain starts? Latsest HRRR says there could be just a very tiny amount between 4 and 7pm (a few hundredths). The significant stuff arrives after 7:00pm. The late afternoon stuff shouldn't be enough to affect the roads with their prior treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Check out this panel. Did not notice this much before but it is saying there is going to be a sleet bomb north of Harrisburg tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has more to do with rates...we’ve been in a dry slot for a while. Official measurement was 3.9” at the Walker Building not too long ago.

Nearly all of the freezing rain on that HRRR map I posted falls between 0Z and 04Z. Surface temps are below 32 through 04Z at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still snow in areas of MD to your south with light rates...still snowing here in fact and I an west of the first mountain range. But like I said I remember some people having this discussion 15 years ago centered around why State College seemingly changes over so quickly.

MAG5035 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Freezing drizzle here with a very light crust on the new snow and 27ºF. 4.8" is my total snowfall for now barring whatever sleet we get later. Wind has been a thing here today, quite a bit more blustery than I was expecting. It was blowing and drifting the intense snow around this morning and making it lovely with the freezing drizzle currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Euro on weather.us is a lot slower than the paid folks get it. It really didn’t pick up this event until after last week’s so the possibility definitely isn’t dead and certainly could come back. Sometimes it just seems in active patterns that there is too much going on ahead of potential events that the models struggle until one or two move through and are out of the way.

Been reading a lot of opinions from respected mets to watch for the first full week of March. I like March snow (okay, any snow) because of shorter wave lengths and more dynamics at play in the atmosphere. If something can blow up in early March it might be special. I shoveled my driveway an hour ago and the pavement is 100% wet. 2/20 solar radiation for the loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruin Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 hmm rader shows blue for the last hour but nothing falling? Im surprised I thought that front thumb of snow would have moistened the air up enough to where even lighter snows would fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
