Burghblizz Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Merry Christmas! Looks like officially 4.5”, with 3” after midnight Probably the opposite of the last storm as Moon likely does a little better than city and points east. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeB_01 Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I have about 4" out there. A slight under performer, but nothing better than Christmas snow. Merry Christmas my friends. Enjoy the snow! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahoff Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Officially we have 23.6" for the month. That's the 3rd snowmelt December ever! Chances don't look great for getting to #2, but we'll see. Also tied for second snowiest Christmas day ever and snowmelt since 1935! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burghblizz Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 NAM picked up on the prolonging of the snow into this afternoon. I feel like this is the type of fluffy snow that will add a sneaky inch or two if it continues. Wouldn’t be suprised to see an event total pushing 6” The average yinzer with a ruler probably won’t report that much since it might not add much to the depth as last nights snow settles. But with NWS likely clearing their board every 6 hours, they will report > 6” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitualOfTheTrout Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Still snowing, nothing beats an all day snow, what a perfect Christmas Day weather wise. Snow is picking up again with temperatures in the teens. All out winter right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Thanks to our lovely city workers the streets around my parents house were a disaster. I may or may not have totaled my car because of it. Oh well I'm not hurt atleast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still snowing, one of those days where lake effect and ULL worked nicely together, for a record breaking Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can speed up by about 12hrs what appears to be a really similar situation to yesterday shaping up on New Year's Eve/Day, maybe there can be some snow added to December's total haha. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting month in that there weren't many opportunities, but we cashed in on every one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahoff Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Christmas day picked up 5.1", smashing the old record. This one should stand for a long while. The last one stood since 1890, and was tied in 1935! That means the Eve and DY total was 6.6". We also saw 0.4" after midnight this morning, for a storm total of 7". Three storms over 6" in December. And the NWS says we are at our second snowiest December. Another overachiever. This has to be our year. Hopefully, the pattern stays primed. Stays cold or gets colder and has opportunity.

CoraopolisWx Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Not completely surprised at the long duration snow event. The Euro was showing high RH% at 700mb right through this morning. Glad I’m not the official snowfall report, the constant winds put a beating on my snowpack. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burghblizz Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Great start to winter! The Euro and NAM were good at showing the possibility of a prolonged period of snow. Got to love closed lows and negatively tilted troughs in these parts. I still saw flakes even this morning. I don’t necessarily consider any of these 3 events overachievers per se. The model support was definitely there for these amounts. It’s just nice to have the digital snow translate to real snow. That’s been a problem the last few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 So all we need is a big daddy and my winter season will be complete. So far this is exactly what I like. Front loaded seasons are better than backloaded. I believe we are in a good place as far as storm tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s been a problem the last few years I consider it an overachiever only because 7" was on the higher end of the model runs. Most were between 3" and 6", and the WWA was for 3-5". That's my only reason. I just can't get over this season so far, has been great, and here's to the new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
