TimB Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Still hopeful here. We have to get something before we bounce back close to 40 virtually every day next week, right? Forgot how quick winter begins to unravel as soon as the calendar flips to February in the last 10 years or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Yeah places north and west may have ice but the city is just plain cold rain. No signs of any ice. Shit we maybe lucky to ever change over at this rate. We may never see this front move ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I was actually thinking the icing was worse than expected for this point in time… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north pgh Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 32.8 here and no icing yet. Yet however I just spoke to my sister who lives off the Wexford exit of 79 and she said the trees are all covered in ice. Nothing freezing yet on her deck. I still think the worst will be from 7 pm to 3 am. It might be like the olden days growing up where you hear the sleet pinging on the windows all night.

No precipitation at the moment. looks like they nailed this one. 31.6/31.5 the last 7 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we will be sitting here at 10 pm still wait at 32.5. We got to be done by then right? If not this would have to go down as the longest lasting coldest rain storm in history . Probably latent heat release from the rain keeping temperatures near or just above freezing in many places overcoming the colder air advecting in from the north at the surface.

Ahoff Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I don’t think this will be much of a snow maker. Hopefully, I’m wrong, just doesn’t feel like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think i ever thought this was going to produce snow. 1-2" backend snow. But i was hoping for the ZR. I of course want everyone to be safe, but im done with 32 and rain. At least the ice is pretty and interesting to monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was clear yesterday we weren't dropping below 32 until at least 6pm-9pm. The short term models had a good handle on the front becoming stationary. I just hoped it would make a bit more progress.

dj3 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Back home and it’s 34. Turns out moderate rain at 34 is looking the same as moderate rain at 30 did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowsux Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 6Z GFS & 12K NAM still showing upwards of a foot and about 7-8 inches for the eastern suburbs. Throw them out? I just don't understand how the consensus could be so bleak for a good, heavy snowstorm at this point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 But also yes, throw the blasted GFS out. It suggested we’d be below freezing all day. I’m writing my representative and telling him I don’t want another penny of my taxes going toward the GFS. Update: I did and his response was “what’s the GFS?” (Kidding, but it wouldn’t surprise me.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north pgh Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 31.8. The coldest it's been at my place today. I don't know if there is any icing on the trees yet because it is dark now. All I know is it is raining pretty hard Nice little tidbit here. Hey Cleveland...you can have your 12-18 inches of snow. We are under a Winter Storm Warning and a Flood Advisory. Not many people can say they have had those to warnings together. Take that... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahoff Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 What caused the front to stall? Something downstream had to block it. Just why did it have to happen right over us, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
