Lol, I likely overreacted a bit. We are SO freaking close to what would really be a historic storm for the area, and its just frustrating that we are likely going to miss it by a matter of 50 miles.

north pgh Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Visibility has already dropped to 3/4 mile at my place and snow blowing off the roof across the street. I hope to get some drifting tonight and tomorrow morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s more, the NWS now says there’s a solid 20% chance many locations in the immediate Pittsburgh area don’t even see warning level snow . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KPITSnow Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 TO get off my doom and gloom about the storm, I do want to say I really do miss the old NWS radar. The snapshot of it you see before you click into it is still the old radar so I generally just zoom in on my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KPITSnow Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Radar is really blowing up south of the city, and I don't really see anything that resembles a dry slot developing yet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never trust those, but I do think they use one of the model outputs and just filter that in as the future radar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's about when the NAM showed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to say that I was looking at traffic cameras along 70 and for the returns over the area it did not seem to match up rate wise. Sleet?

Chance of seeing more than 6” is 80% or so for most of the county. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
