Didn't think it would be possible but Kpitt has officially given up on winter and it's only December 4. Absolutely incredible. As I type this I can hear the wind howling and the pinging starting so the front has arrived. And a record from you, five minutes to be stalking me. Why don’t you just cool it this winter and put me on ignore, and stop being so obsessed with every post I make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I'm just kidding when I joke around with you. You take everything personal. Anyway the winds were howling this morning and looks like we received around a half inch or so. Certainly feels like winter out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj3 Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 Slept right through the thundersnow although the wife said she heard/saw it. I think theres a chance we seem streamers make it down into Allegheny county this evening for mood flakes but not expecting any accumulations. Next wednesday looking like too much of a thread the needle. Really wish it would at least be a trackable event as it looks it may be our only chance until closer to Xmas.

Next wednesday looking like too much of a thread the needle. Really wish it would at least be a trackable event as it looks it may be our only chance until closer to Xmas. Mood flakes incoming, starting to get some flurries now. The cold feels so much better when it's overcast and there are at least a few flakes in the air right? I slept through it all as well, by the looks of it things this morning it was pretty short lived though, so probably not worth getting 3 hours sleep over imho. Keeping an eye on next Wed too, things have been pretty changeable. As always best to not get locked into anything mentally and not invest a lot of time until you get into the short range and sorta just checkout if it looks bad for 7 days plus. I found that makes this hobby much more enjoyable for myself. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t hear what they were saying as I was at the gym. Doesn't look like much right now for AGH. Very similar to the setup last week with the lake effect machine cranking back up. GFS is the most robust, but even as depicted, it's still warm at the surface when the "snow" begins. Early guess is another 0-2" event for Western PA areas minus the ridges and Erie.

TheClimateChanger Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 I think the biggest question on everyone’s mind is whether PIT may see its first below normal month since August 2023. Through the first ten days of the month, December is sitting at -1.2F. My inclination, however, is no. The month will probably finish above normal. We shall see.

The potential for isolated snow squalls/bands will increase late this evening. While accumulations will generally be less than one half inch, quick bursts of snow will lead to reductions in visibility and slick conditions at times. In addition, quickly falling temperatures will lead to the development of slick spots overnight on some surfaces. Wind gusts up to 40 mph are also possible. $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

north pgh Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Moderate snow here. I’ll call it a short over performer. I’m at a higher elevation but I have close to an inch on grassy areas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahoff Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Extended on models looks...not good. While it doesn't look all that warm compared to some Decembers, the theme seems to be when it's warm we're wet, and when it's cold we're dry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it doesn't look all that warm compared to some Decembers, the theme seems to be when it's warm we're wet, and when it's cold we're dry. Extended has been pretty changeable, but generally with NS dominated pattern you aren't going to see discrete threats with any sort of accuracy past day 5 imho. Something could pop up in the short range. Unfortunately, the overall pattern this winter probably favors NS systems that don't quite dig far enough south to get us with snow, so we get setups like today, or they develop too far east and scrape the coast. Should be plenty of dice rolls though and all it takes is timing a shortwave and decent ridging out west in the right spot for something to pop. At least right now it doesn't look like a no chance cya next year for tracking, and I still think we beat last year's snowfall total, but that is a low bar lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordo74 Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 Nice surprise yesterday in Westmoreland. Ended up with juuust under the amount needed to cover the grass tops, but surely enough to turn everything white. Added to the seasonal feeling. Carrot/Apple Weather seem to think a larger threat next Thursday into Friday (6-10") east of the city. Anyone seeing something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked and it's showing 7-8 inches for the city. I haven't seen anything that would lead me to believe that's a likely outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
