Ho-hum… just another 16 day ensemble run with double digit snow in the LSV.

Day after day of this, again, which is super rare.

We have a chance to get to average or above If we score a 6 to 8 inch Warning level event next week. Follow that up with at least some front or back end snow from the follow up waves later next week/early the following week, we will be well on our way.

Then, we big game hunt when the blocking pattern sets in a little later in the month to put us over the top.

Dew points in northeast PA are still in the single digits at this hour.

Most of the rest of PA has dews in the teens.

At 11:30 my temp has gone absolutely nowhere since 7pm.  It's 32.0 degrees.  Has gone back and forth between 31.8 and 32.2, but mostly 32.0.  My dewpoint is 19.6 degrees with a relative humidity of 60%.  My wet bulb reading is currently 27.7 degrees which also has not changed either.  With these temps it will be easy to drop quickly to 30 degrees and then likely 29 degrees when the heavy precip comes in.  The anticipation continues...

My latest NWS forecast as of 11:40pm...(by the way, they quietly extended the WWA an additional 2 hours, now running until noon)...

Tonight

Snow, freezing rain, and sleet before 4am, then sleet between 4am and 5am, then snow and sleet after 5am. The sleet could be heavy at times. Low around 27. Southeast wind 5 to 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total nighttime ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. Total nighttime snow and sleet accumulation of less than one inch possible.

Thursday

Rain, snow, freezing rain, and sleet before 2pm, then a slight chance of rain between 2pm and 3pm. Some thunder is also possible. High near 44. Southeast wind 5 to 8 mph becoming southwest in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. New snow and sleet accumulation of less than a half inch possible.

 

Thunder sleet anyone?
