This run is more like Boxing Day 2010.  :thumbsdown:

Lancaster County was under a Winter Storm Warning the morning of the storm for 6-12"...which was "tweaked" in the early afternoon to 3-6"...which was "tweaked" late afternoon to a coating to an inch or 2. 

My ground truth?

I was in Vermont and we left the morning of the storm to drive home.  Stayed inland the whole ride home.  I remember being shocked to get home and see that we got absolutely nothing in York County.

It was brutal - sometime just after noon we started to see flurries in Maytown. I'm nervously thinking "here we go"...but they stopped 5 minutes later. It was then that I was pretty sure our fate was sealed. Looking west across the river towards York County the sky started to get bright as some clearing was moving west to east. We went to visit my wife's grandmother in New Holland and it was snowing lightly there with a light dusting on the ground. That was about the farthest west that there was much of anything visible on the ground. 

I spent that evening depressed, hopped on the forum and got more depressed reading the NYC forum. Pictures and video were surreal that night.

The predictable top reactions across the site so far:

 

Those in the 2-5 foot area:  This will never happen, we never get snow like that

Those outside the 2-5 foot snow area"  It is going to happen, it never snows here and snows everywhere else. 

Looks like there's decent model consensus of SOMETHING to track during the 12/20 - 12/22 timeframe.

It would be ironically funny if something tracked to drop 1-2 feet at State College on the 21st. 

James Franklin > MU if that happened. Last week he talked about hosting a playoff game and he mentioned about there likely being 16" of snow on the ground for that game.

If PSU loses because of the snow, I do not want to hear one peep about it :-).  Maybe Rendell can charge in and postpone the game?

Final 3-day rainfall tally in Maytown was 2.45". There was standing water in low-lying areas around town this morning - been a LONG time since I've seen that. 

You really put a whopping on me this time, as my 3-day was only 1.66".  I had to go back to Aug. 6 to exceed that, when I got 2.27" from torrential T'storms, including one that dropped an inch in 20 minutes.

I'll be there.  Give me all of it and more.

If you get 1-2 feet of snow you may need to plunk down 3K for the room.
