Temp 33F. As of 11:30 am, it's 33F and snowing moderately with 5.4" OTG, so only 0.4" the last hour, as rates just haven't been great, missing out on the best bands for the last 3 hours; we had 4.0" at 8:30 am, so only 1.5" the last 3 hours while the good bands were giving people 1-2" per hour (we got 1.75"/hr before 8:30 am). Oh well. One last band to go through in the next 30 min or so and if we're lucky we'll get to 6", but not sure, although as I'm typing this the snow has gone to almost heavy for the first time in hours, so maybe.

Hurricane Agnes Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 The back edge is now past me and I'm down to flurries. Final measurement at 11:45 am was 3.5" (so got 1" over the 3 hours since the earlier measurement). Currently have some stray flurries and it's 33 with dp 33 and all kinds of melting and sloughing going on. Am hoping more can slough off the car the rest of today.

mattinpa Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 It actually did look like 6 inches this time before any melting. Got to enjoy the snow and still get out later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadzachadam Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I'll go with 2.5" final measurement in East Falls, but there was quite a bit of melting and compacting while it was still snowing. Went for a walk up the neighborhood hill and there was noticeably more snow at the top of the hill (~200 ft elevation) than at my house (~90 ft elevation). Fun storm and should be melted pretty quickly here if we actually get to 40 degrees with sun this afternoon like the forecast suggests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zenmsav6810 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Sun is out here in Thorndale. Roads were rough getting to work. No all-wheel drive = stay home. All sorts of carnage on the road from Tractor trailers to Toyotas to Bamboo and Telephone poles. Modeling saying there's a chance at some more snow on Saturday too!

As of about 12:15 the snow ended and that last good 45 min band got us to 6.0" as per my lousy pic below, using the yardstick I grew up with, lol. Not quite the 7.2" I predicted, due to probably missing out on 1.5-2.0" from being in that heinous subsidence hell hole for 3 hours, lol. But Woo-hoo! since my expectations several days ago, when things were trending warm/wet for 95, was maybe an inch or two of slop...although there was certainly some hope for a 10-12" event in the past day or two if things worked out perfectly, but not a surprise that that didn't happen, which is why my prediction was for a more realistic 7.2". This brings the season total up to a respectable 13.3", still well below where we should be (about 18" through this point in the winter), but way better than last winter's 5.2" here. And there are some more snow chances over the next few weeks. And this storm is one more data point showing that snow will easily accumulate on all untreated surfaces at 33-34F, as long as there is moderate to high intensity, even after a warm/rainy day. Curious to see what my ratios were (in progress). Guessing pretty low early in the storm with some sleet and pretty wet snow, but probably >10:1 once the snow started falling heavily around sunrise and especially by mid-morning as the snow was fairly fluffy with nice dendrites, but I'll only be able to get one aggregate number.

Kevin Reilly Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 39 partly sunny here rapid melt off on-going. Total snowfall here in Media 3.3" before the compaction took place. I drove 2 miles south to lower elevated side of Media clearly less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 It is actually comical how far off yesterday’s 12z Euro was. Many of the areas in the 2-4” zone got a foot.

Birds~69 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Sun out in full force with some blue skies, let the drip-drip begin. Wouldn't be surprised if I lose 50%+ of my accumulation this afternoon. We are getting drilled by the sun and 40 degree temps and from below since the ground was/is still warm. The only reason we received any significant accumulation was the insane rates... 38F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Ended with 10.5" of snow here in East Nantmeal Twp.. The 2nd largest storm this decade...behind only Feb 1 -3, 2021 when I recorded 16.6" of snow. Total for the season now stands at 21.7" which is only 2.1" below normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you missed out. It was like a couple hour death band...easily 1" rates and sometimes 2" I would think. Better luck next time year... 38F/Partly sunny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got less than 2" and it has all been completely melted by mid-afternoon here in Bordentown, NJ. Kind of amazing how every model this morning had 4-8" for the area. Probably got around 1.5" if that.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Dad said we got about 9" in Fleetwood, biggest storm in quite some time. 2021 was the last double digit snow I even remember 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
