Hey bud, love your posts. I went to Cal U met program. I remember you posting back in the mid 2000s lol... I’m going to be chasing this storm out of philly. I wanna get a few spots picked out. Once you get up into PA you think I should head up NE towards that corner of the state or more westward?

You mean mid 2010's? Mid 2000's I was in HS still being a weenie and learning everything while I stalked Accuweather Forums lol. If I had to pick a spot, right now in PA, I'd head to York county in the hills between HBG and THV. There's routes over to I-81 area too. Someone there will clean up

Ha! I kid, of course. Should be a good event up here, even if some warm air sneaks in. Going to enjoy whatever I get. 

It's gonna be a fun storm to watch. Wish I was back home for it, but I'll get mine in due time. I'm working on getting back to the homeland in time. I just need to convince someone gullible enough at Sterling to accept me :lol:

Haha maybe. The years kind of blend together. It might have been another Millville username who knows. Thanks man. I personally think center city philly ends up with around 5-6” NE 6-8”. Excited for a semi local chase though!

Heading home to dover, pa (from upstate NY). That looks to be a good spot for snow-chasing I think!

6Z GEFS mean low locations does not support NAM.

I know it's December, but how is there is a fresh cold air mass with a fairly strong high and those low locations and a concern of mix or rain still and surface temps above freezing? Those low locations are perfect.

They are 6 hour time period maps... not total event snowfall maps

I understand that, Yoda.  The first 6 is 1-2", the next 12 hours per THAT map is 1" or less. That is the shading I am in.  Please understand I know my own damn climo

My temps will be above freezing for most of the event. I'm not piling up snow during the daytime under THAT forecast.

That says 1-2" for me.  Tops.  Oh well.  Time to look for the next one

Hm says January will be fun

Great.  Can't wait for you to bitch about a model run that takes you from 16" to 12" while I can't even get 4.

Those are six hour snow amounts. Would be a total of 3-6 inches for you.

Sigh.  Ok.  So for all that don't know where I live I am just under the bottom of the beltway in VA about 6 pixels from the Potomac river.  I am initially in the 1-2" 6hr panel.  Then from that point on its the very first shading which is 0-1"  

So when that first 1-2" falls I will flip to sleet and rain.  My storm total on the ground won't be 3-6".

...you ok? 

I’m definitely not one to defend @H2O but it has to be extremely annoying and frustrating when people think they know your climate better than you and on top of it a large majority of the forum gets a lot more snow than you. I would be cranky as hell.

well its three sets of maps over three time periods

for example, my backyard: 

7am - 1pm: < 1

1pm - 7pm: 6-8

7pm to 1am: 4-6

and then more should fall after that

this is an incendiary post.. you should be more sensitive to those south of you ;)

Wow,  to the tight Northern Delaware gradient. Dover to Greenville Delaware night and day!   0 to 12 inch over ridiculous short distance.  

Sweating it here.

That gradient is absolutely brutal. Gives me 1". This had better not be a sign of how this winter season will go.
