Western PA/Pittsburgh Winter 2021/22 Discussion

About an hour ago, it was freezing rain just west of Somerset Pa on Pa Turnpike, until about New Stanton.  It was all snow in Somerset but once off the mountain, it was definitely freezing rain — and it was freezing on contact on windshield. I thought it was unusual because I did not think this part of Pa would see mix/ice this soon

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...

Changes for the late aftn update included the insertion of a freezing
rain mention for areas east of I 79 given some initial reports south
of I 70 as well as a model trend of strong warm advection support for
that scenario. Overnight totals for those areas will likely be
degraded a bit given the retardation of dendritic growth.
Nevertheless, deformation on Monday will support continued and
prolonged snowfall, so snow totals remain the dominant feature of
this event.

Elsewhere, the expected frontogenetic band with 1-2 inch/hour rates
is also likely to be shunted slightly westward and a storm total 
tweak was completed for that eventuality.

Gusty wind is expected to develop in the eastern WV ridges on 
Monday, and will likely result in blowing snow and lowered 
visibility.

Don't shoot the messenger.

Dude, if you’re this upset, why keep following?

Because it is still interesting. 

I was told to "shut up" for saying this would be an issue a couple days ago, but talked myself into the fact we would avoid major P type issues but I really should have known better.

I feel like I’m posting in the MA thread. I just took my dog for a walk and enjoyed the first dusting starting. If you sit here staring at the computer you will miss it. Enjoy.

One cat basically so weenied out that it makes it MA thread vibe. But they have like 20 like that :)

Then just wait until it changes for you then.  If you’re still snowing just enjoy it.  What if it never changes over for you?  It’s now casting at this point.

Ok then dude. I'll make a bet with you. If KPIT goes over 8 inches I won't post on here the rest of the winter. If it goes under you do the same.
