Hurricane Agnes Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Since we do have a variety of forum posters in areas that will see snow/sleet/ZR - at least initially and on the backend, plus there is a flood threat, along with some potential advisory-level winds and possibly record breaking cold, decided to go ahead and make an obs thread. Currently misty and mostly virga and 36 with dp 32 here in NW Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief83 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Worcester, Pa. Right at 32 degrees. Roads are icy. Quite a few vehicle accidents in the area. Temp rose from about 27 to 32 in about an hour two hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Am getting some intermittent light drizzle but every time I stick my head out the door, I don't see/feel anything but it has wet much of the walk. Still not enough to be measurable. Temp still 36 with dp 33. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Finally tipped the bucket for 0.01". Since there is a flood watch up for the area, much more to come today and tomorrow. Still 36/dp 34. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 32F and rain here. The meso models have all been coming in more pronounced with precip along the arctic front, specifically rain. That will definitely increase the chance of a flash freeze with rainfall imminently occurring during the freeze process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Rain is steadier and temp continues to rise and is at 37 with dp 36. Have 0.09" so far and the winds have also picked up. We are also in a New Moon phase so this would exacerbate any coastal flooding (although not as much as would have occurred from a Full Moon).

ChescoWx Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 The latest models continues to show the potential for a small accumulation of snow following the cold front passage tomorrow morning. The NWS has trended even colder for Saturday - now forecasting the record lowest high temperature ever recorded (since 1894) for Christmas Eve Day with a high of only 17 now forecast.

Hurricane Agnes Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Temp still rising here IMBY and at 39 with dp 39. Have 0.21" in the bucket so far and currently have light rain. Am getting rain up against my back windows that face NE and checked to see the low getting ready to emerge off the coast. So between that and the highs up over Maine and NE Canada, am getting that easterly component. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like that map verbatim used to produce....1037hp anchored over Maine, NE flow as coastal takes over, half decent antecedent cold air mass. This hobby may require a move N and W to higher elevations in the coming years for me personally....far N and W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
