Burghblizz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 3 minutes ago, Burghblizz said: Airport looks like it’s been catching the northern fringe of the band. 1.5” in the last two hours, with 2” total. Steubenville/Wintersville area is about 25 miles southwest and is pushing 6”. Some of those types of totals will likely translate east. Definitely a nowcast storm. Certainly looked like the sweet spot would be further south. Correction - 7” already in Steubenville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile there’s a report from Imperial, a few miles away, of 4”. It’s like the streak just doesn’t want to end or the NWS observer doesn’t want it to.

Yeah, maybe the embedded bands are more difficult to forecast. Three weeks ago, guidance nailed the lake bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burghblizz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Imperial - literally 5 miles from the airport. 6.5”. If I recall, they got the lake band too. People there are probably thinking it ain’t a bad winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahoff Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 There’s a 6.5” report in Imperial. I don’t see how the airport doesn’t reach 3”. And if it doesn’t I don’t think I could trust the recorders. The airport was absolutely seeing parts of that heavy band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burghblizz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Seeing also 6+ in Plum too. Which basically means that band…cutting through the center of the entire length of Allegheny County will wind up dropping 6-8”. Even though that cuts through a pretty populated swath, not sure we have a ton of posters that got to enjoy it full on. But still a pretty remarkable event.
