I should have known better, we all know the warm noses aloft come in quicker then modeled. Still a lot of storm left. Always flips earlier. This was never a question.

Moderately Unstable Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Honestly despite the modeling flaws and the forecast complexity I've been pleasantly surprised by how this event is going. We came in expecting a super messy setup and it has been. 13 minutes ago, RedSky said: Wow it sounds like Philly stole all the MA peoples snow, that how much for Philly guy better lay low until next winter Depends where in Philly. My staff in Fairmount report around 4". Here at city ave we got around 5" rather quickly (as expected) and now over to sig sleet. If someone got a golden shovel foot mazeltov to them. Where are the reports of 1 foot? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but the WAA snows way overperformed to make up for it. We were all sleet in levittown 30 mins ago but not have changed back to 50/50 snow sleet. The sleet is accumulating quickly too. Up to 7" in Levittown. Curious how I'm doing up in Hopewell. My guess is 4-5". Haven't set up a webcam to my snowboard like ray yet.... That's next year's project 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadzachadam Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 For those asking where there's a foot--I have been over a foot for a couple hours here in Conshohocken. Maybe half an inch of sleet now on top of 13" of snow 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher elevations N&W often do better so while notable Philly folks wouldn't empathize with the sensible weather in Conshy (in this type of setup).

Measured 8.5" on the path in front of the house around 8:15, cleared it, had 3.5" more that I cleared around 9:45, then about 1 additional inch that I cleared an hour ago. Table in the back that I haven't cleared at all also has around 13" and that's with sleet on top so I imagine it compacted at least a little bit Just now, Moderately Unstable said: Okay I was gonna say ...holy gradient batman!

Higher elevations N&W often do better so while notable Philly folks wouldn't empathize with the sensible weather in Conshy (in this type of setup).
