CoraopolisWx Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Dry air limited overall totals, but that 1-2 hr burst was worth the wait. Great daytime rates, with nice dendrites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets try to keep this thread civil and mainly obs and discussion. Use PMs or the banter thread for the other stuff. Or as mentioned by others, the ignore feature. Save explitives for things like I just got a f***k ton of snow. We are a small group so in slow times bantering in this thread isn't a big deal, but for me coming in on the eve of a storm and seeing all the bickering / fighting was really unnecessary.

TimB Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 And on a weather note, the 18z gfs was beautiful if maybe a little implausible. Lots of storm opportunities, yeah we get blasted with punishing waves of cold later in the run, and it honestly looks like it just spit out the coldest 7 day period on record for parts of the lower Midwest and some of the south. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's quite the run. Hopefully, some version of that comes to fruition. That would be pretty brutal though for the midwest, and if the southeast experience what it showed, they'd be crippled.

PghPirates27 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Unofficially 2” here. I am happy and so are the kids. 2” is 8” for them. Nice to have it during the day. I’d trade that for 4” overnight and it gone by noon the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I used to post all the time.. I need to get into it again. Hopefully this active pattern brings me back.I used to post a lot more as well. Not to keep beating a dead horse, but I've had to deal with some personal things the past few years that have taken me away from the hobby. I can say though that those personal things have made me appreciate life a lot more now, so things like missing a snowstorm just don't hurt anymore. It's no big deal to me anymore. When I pop back in here, I just want to enjoy the discussions and tracking and not make it stressful if things go against us.Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimB Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 6z GFS looked great. Keeps us cold but not bitter cold from late week on and in an active storm track with lots of opportunities to score. Euro, not so much. After the weekend storm (which does little for us) it pumps a pretty sizable eastern ridge out ahead of that piece of polar energy. I’d think that’s a warm and wet to cold and dry scenario. I would guess a lot of our upcoming pattern depends on where the piece of polar energy ejects, which is far from certain at this point.

Ahoff Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Which model handled this last system the best overall? Seems the Euro was too much snow for us, and GFS was too little. Maybe the future is somewhere in between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we did pretty good for what this storm ended up being. Can't complain about steady moderate to heavy snow for an hour or two. Given its going to get washed out Tuesday it only being a couple inches makes that more palatable anyways. 17 hours ago, TimB said: Also I see three stars between f and k, so I’m not sure what word you were going for Lol Any feel free to choose any adjective you can make fit.

ChalkHillSnowNut Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Picked up another 1.5” since about 8:30 this morning….its nice to just see the snow again finally even tho it will all be gone in another 48 hrs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some flurries here. Great to see the snow, even if only around for a short time. Hopefully after this Tuesday midwest rain storm we get some clarity on next weekend. Im still concerned that tropical forcing in the bad phases of the MJO are going to lead to to much -PNA even though its counter to what youd expect in a Nino. We can benefit on the downstream effects of some ridging off the coast for a more Western track, but might be to much of that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahoff Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Oh boy to that GFS 16th storm. That would be nice, and the cold to follow and look it in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Looks like a warm & wet to cold & dry pattern for a little while. Doubt we will see much snow for the next week. Even with the recent snowfall, still the 14th lowest seasonal amount (out of 144 years) through January 8. Only 2007, 2016, 1995 & 1966 had less since observations have been taken at KPIT, with one other year (1941) at KAGC. I guess coming off the 8th least seasonal tally last winter, that can be seen as a small improvement. Looking at current averages, we need nearly one-half inch per day just to keep pace with normals at this time of the year. Not sure we do that. If there's one good thing, it looks like the East Coast folks will be even worse off. But the Chicago area looks favored for some heavy snows.

TheClimateChanger Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Looks like the European modeling has a snow threat next week for the eastern US, but that's still over a week out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we can toss this week. Next week looks to be an interesting one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
