I wouldn't say it's epic, but that is a little above the mean for here. It all fell in January though and snow was on the ground a lot of the time so that was pretty epic. Much better than having bare ground for the best month of winter, I will say that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 The maybe 0.25” I got this morning has been vaporized. Pixie flakes barely make the trek through the lower atmosphere without being nuked by the filtered mid-February sun, and if they do they last no more than 10 seconds on the grass. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayyy Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 NAM / HRRR definitely did better than the GFS with this one. They were all too far south ultimately. 4-6” totals from N MD to SENY. 6-8 lollies in E PA. Impressive for a non synoptic event with no low pressure system to track. Especially given temps yesterday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it looks pretty coming down but these are not high quality flakes, so struggling to get more than a coating. I am sure had it actually snowed when it was supposed to overnight into the morning, I would have done quite a bit better here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We benefited from timing up this way. 1 AM, 32 degrees and heavy snow. Same bands during daylight and were likely talking 1-2”, not 4-5” for my area and points NE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same bands during daylight and were likely talking 1-2”, not 4-5” for my area and points NE You benefitted from more than timing- you were in the sweet spot with the best lift in the RR quad of that jet streak. You probably had some stellar dendrites falling at an inch per hour. Things tend to even out. I made a lot of posts in this thread tracking the small scale features for this event, and I know I said at least couple times that places NW were overdue, and if nothing else, that was enough of a reason to keep tracking when much of the guidance had it further east. WDI there for a hit, and WDI over here to miss out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a lot of the mesos have T-1" down here from the snow showers later this evening, which I think have a better shot at sticking than much of what did today. Fingers crossed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what this was, and I put a lot into tracking it, but I was doing it more for fun and to "bring the blues" to the snow starved north (LOL), and it actually worked out that way. For all my tracking, I got bupkis! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some enhancement off south mountain for the LSV. Interesting AFD snippet from State College- Focus shifts to scattered instability snow showers developing across western PA into the Alleghenies/Laurel Highlands this evening into tonight. Pool of steep 0-3km lapse rates (7-8+ C/km) will drop southeast from lower MI and traverse south central PA tonight coincident with potent upper level trough. Primary risk is for locally heavy snow showers/squalls to develop and produce sharp vis drops to near whiteout and quick snow accumulation on roads. Evening shift will need to monitor upstream conditions and may need to issue some statements should conditions warrant. Confidence is average with the best signal over the Laurel Highlands to I-99, but how far east showers can extend is uncertain. We were keen to continue mention of heavy snow showers/potential hazardous driving impacts in the HWO while trending POPs higher than NBM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 1.5". Not sure the time, but I woke up during the night and it was snowing hard. Beautiful dendrites.

Daytime heating, though heating the surface and leading to snow melt, would allow for more numerous and intense snow showers/squalls popping up distributed more evenly across the region. It could certainly still be fun for some late overnight/pre-dawn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherJustin Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 If anyone is keeping track of Accumulations, Snowshoe 24hr total I measured 3-5” range for the 24hr total…. Although I think only 2” or so Of that came from the system the rest was What I assumed to be NW Flow all day today ….sitting at 10 degrees currently …. Maybe that band back west will come thru overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
