For HH—on my second DIPA from Hidden River Brewing from PA (aka snow country). Tried my first 6 from them over the last few weeks. So good! It’s in the upper echelon of top Hazy IPAs I’ve had on the East Coast. If you ever find yourself near Douglassville, PA, the beer is absolutely stellar. Cheers!

But there are some errors on it that help your case and hinder mine. Its just the little details. I don't believe you can hit Philly and travel essentially due east all the way to the ocean and maintain the same averages. Same goes for Wilmington and going due east to the Ocean. You are downplaying the effect the ocean has on totals in those areas. Granted, once 15-20 miles inland, it becomes less of an issue. But believe me, I lived in Monmouth County for 30+ years, and that Ocean was a killer compared to just another 10-20 miles inland. But when you go in 20 miles, thats half of the county. So I'd take that 20 inch line, and 25 inch line and eek them up the coast a bit. Which, hate to say it, is more in line with my thinking. There is simply no way Pt Pleasant NJ, does as well as SE PA and way western hilly burbs of DC. So its kind of slipping hairs. Certainly I-95 south of the DMB has had terrible luck this year. My lines don’t go due east they go ENE because that’s what the averages do. I could have drawn that from memory but I looked them up just to confirm. They do hook north on the immediate coast east of the parkway but that’s a local meso coastal front thing and hard to capture on a map of that scale. But yes some location right on the beach or within a mile of the ocean in northeast NJ might only average slightly more then a spot in northern Delaware but that’s a very local thing and not a fair comp. go just a few miles inland and the snow climate of northeast/east central NJ is far superior to Wilmington DE. This is from Isotherms light in the storm website which has excellent climo data on NJ. Look at the 21” gradient. It runs right through center city Philly then look how it runs ENE until it gets to the immediate coast. Look at the 27” gradient! It runs south if due east across NJ until the immediate coast! I didn’t make that up. Averages aren’t up for debate. They are mathematically calculated and produce a definitive numerical value. They are what they are lol. Perhaps your perception is skewed because in the mid Atlantic south of Philly due to elevation being a larger factor then latitude and the effect of the Chesapeake bay, the snow gradient does run more SW to NE. But once north of Philly those lines turn more east quick. Part of that is reaching a latitude where snow is more easily supported on the coastal plain. Part is that a ENE wind suddenly isn’t coming off the Gulf Stream anymore. Trust me I grew up just south of that gradient. I can remember so many storms where I got 1-3” just east of Philly and 30 miles north of me in NJ got 6-10”. What you saw yesterday isn’t unusual.

Bob Chill Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Does anybody really care about anyone's snow climo beyond their own yard? I sure don't. Never understood why people care when areas to our north or south get hit and we fail. It snows all over the globe 12 months a year non stop. Any place outside of my yard is all the same to me irt snow. Nonexistent. Areas of Japan get buried 5 stories deep. Places like that is where we should be envious. Certainly not Scranton.

psuhoffman Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 46 minutes ago, Bob Chill said: It can happen but we really need a heck of an antecedent airmass (and deep to our sw) and a fast moving storm. The leaf of precip on the south side is just a warm front. I'm not writing it off and it's def discussionable (new word!). It’s a long shot but what makes it even possible is that there is a wave forming on the front. It’s not a closed circulation low or anything but the wave passing south among the front does 2 things, disrupts the straight shot of southerly flow some and focuses lift to its northeast which can hold off WAA some also and mix cold down. It’s not a straight up front with a low way NW. but this setup still favors north of the urban areas. I’ve seen this setup work out NW of the cities before for a quick thump snow but I can’t really remember one that worked for 95. Well I can think of one, Feb 2015, but we had sub 0 temps 24 hours before that one so it’s not a great comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol So very true. If i ever decide to move some place solely due to snow it’s either going to be a place where 100”+ seasons are a given or I have close proximity to mountains that get nuked every year. Who cares if someone gets 40” a year vs 20” closer to the city. Small potatoes stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to Eastern High in Voorhees Exactly! ‘96 was crazy, but it seems like virtually every storm growing up was marginal, and that the Lehigh Valley got crushed all the freaking time! My sledding hill was one of the off-ramps of the Betsy Ross Bridge. What an absolute blast that was, regardless of whether we flipped to mix/rain or not! I went to CCHS, but knew plenty of folks from Voorhees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
