Who knows By no means saying it’s over. Would just need such minuscule changes southward with development of the coastal to get into a band that might park over us and deliver serious fluff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're going to have to learn from experience how these things tend to work--which in this case is that these Miller Bs indeed do tend to jump us. Things have not been going our way so far, but this is East Coast winter weather, anything can happen. I remember the second Feb 2010 blizzard came out of absolutely nowhere. If the coastal's precip shield is wider than expected, if the Low stalls farther south and west, etc. etc. Just have to wait and see. Listen, again...all I wanted to know was what could cause what. What made snow more or less likely in this setup. I knew about what Miller B's tend to do...maybe I should've asked more why this one would be different from previous Miller B fails than why it would work. Oh but that's right...I guess that's too detailed a question to ask on here, smh I'm afraid to ask anymore questions now...apparently I've been obnoxious. Not sure why I'm being singled out when there are far worse posters than me on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wetbulbs88 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 This storm is still far from organized. We have a long way to go. We were never going to be in the jackpot but surprises are in store for some people on this sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have grown to dislike snowfall maps...especially outside of maybe Day 3 or so...bad for the snow weenie psyche, lol Btw I did NOT get hung up on those by any stretch (when it showed a foot here I only half believed it then). But I, as a weather layperson, do find the pressure/thickness charts, vorticity, and other more complex maps harder to understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was eastern Pa now puts down 20+ inches literally 10 Miles over the Pa line ne of Parkton near i83. ...and near Hanover, Pa Nice shift Absolutely. The precip shield was less favorable but that means nothing to me now. The low is far more tucked. This should be interesting. I think my area is probably going to get fringed but you might be in a better spot. In general, Baltimore and NE should definitely be interested by now. Gotta be prepared to wait out these lulls while the real thing gets its act together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demeter Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 This is the type of storm I love tracking. Yes, I’m disappointed I didn’t get dumped on...but man, it’s beautiful to watch develop.

Roger Smith Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Some rather extreme looking solutions on RGEM and GFS 18z, makes me think this storm may join the elite memorable storm category but probably more for what it does in PA than any other state, however NJ, MD and NY could have some of the historical mentions. Each run seems to drop the central pressures (at comparable times) a couple of mbs. Very interesting to watch this unfold (and let's face it almost 0% of this storm has actually happened yet). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Regardless of how much snow anyone got, it was very pretty and quite peaceful.

I've harped on it before but with everything that has happened in the last year, it's good to disconnect, get outside, and just enjoy the beauty that is accessible to us. One of my favorite pictures comes from a tough time...I was just walking along a quiet road when I saw this. I think about it every so often. Thank you so much! And that picture you shared is awesome! Yes, as soul-crushing as this past year has been in many ways, getting out and realizing there is still beauty in the world helps. I've perhaps taken more photos in the last year than in any other year, to be honest. It's a hobby of mine to be sure, but with everything else going on now, it's also an escape where I look for things to photograph. Also has the added effect of helping me improve my technique and vision in that regard, too, LOL! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristowWx Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Pretty amazing how suppression never really came into play. It’s snowing up to S NY. We are to the point where you can maybe get excited about 24-36 hours before a storm. I had 40 inches of modeled snow last Tuesday on the Euro. I will end up with about 10% of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She gobbles it up. But not something she eats often. Just special occasions like snow days. Normally she eats very little meat. Snow days are special. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
