This is trending In the right direction.

Hopefully the Euro & Canadian get on board more over the next day or two.

They seem to be keying on a 2 wave set up where the first wave brings some wintry weather to CTP, but then raises the heights a bit so the second wave is mostly an icy mix for most of us.

The GFS has consistently been focused the last several runs of keeping the first wave well to our south, while allowing the cold to press more. Then the second main wave approaches and rides good precip into the cold air in place allowing for a front end thump of snow. This 12z run was mostly snow from the PA turnpike on north.

Just received a squall warning alert on my phone.  In the car with 3 people and everyone finishing my sentance incorrectly.  I heard the beeping and said that must be a...and before I could finish, Amber alert was a guess as well as the war in the Ukraine started.  No, it was a squall warning. 

Would we get an alert about the war?

 

I had a dream last week that my phone gave me a war alert lol

I just drove through the mega death band of 2022 on my way to Toontown. I drive a Hyundai Elantra. Let's just say the Koreans know many things, but where to put the weight distribution on a car is not one of them. 

 

Upshot: Hyundai Elantra doubles as paramotor. 

 

Sucks: I don't have a chute.
