I don't have a clear view out to 1,320 feet, but I did take my drone up and I couldn't see RT 42 in Washington Township, which is about 800 ft away.

Observations under that enhanced area of snow on the radar are no where near 1/4 mile in snow. It is snowing pretty good under that here at the office, but visibility is above 1 mile. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted Saturday at 01:20 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:20 AM Still have SN- to SN and got a measurement of 1" IMBY in NW Philly so far (~8:10 pm). It's wet stuff and there's lots of dripping going on as the temp has been right around freezing. Walks and streets are still wet but cars, grassy areas, and colder surfaces are covered. Currently 32 & dp 32, with light snow and fog. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted Saturday at 01:40 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:40 AM Any snowfall reports from Philly? Heard it's snowing hard, as per the radar, but no idea if it's accumulating (a friend in center city said not on the streets yet, but that's not a surprise).

Ralph Wiggum Posted Saturday at 01:41 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:41 AM Just took a walk out to the snow board in the field for an 'official' measurement and we're at 1.75" and still snowing moderately. Best rates of the day 31F. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted Saturday at 01:51 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:51 AM Looks like around 3” out there. I had to stop DoorDash for the night because the roads were getting too slick for my FWD car. Probably another inch or two tonight. Love these overperformers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carry on... Sorry, my response may have come across as a bit crass. My apologies. Could only see what I could see and that was through a camera and couple hundred feet above the surface. My personal visibility is about 100 feet due to a tree line. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in south philly near the Italian market it has been steady snow since about 3 pm. Steady moderate to heavy snow since maybe 6 pm? However virtually no accumulation. Got a thin crust on the grill and some, but not all, cars. Don't even have a thermometer but it seems like it's a couple degrees over freezing. Great set up in terms of this band of snow that's been parked overhead, but temps simply too warm. Very pretty to watch fall though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted Saturday at 02:37 AM Share Posted Saturday at 02:37 AM Ok, kids, game on! We got 3/8" in the last hour for an hourly rate of - wait for it - 3/8" per hour, lol. Snowing moderately at 33F and accumulating everywhere except on paved surfaces - nice dendrites, so the snow growth aloft must be nice in the dendritic growth zone. Radar looks good for awhile, so 1-2" is certainly in reach. Let's see how it goes. My wife and I just went for a very nice walk outside - it's just gorgeous out there! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just drove from West Philly to East Falls (NW Philly) through West Fairmount Park. Pretty much just cars and north-facing yards covered in the city, but it was really snowy up in the hills in Fairmount park, probably an inch on all the trees and unpaved surfaces. Here in NW Philly everything is covered but the road, maybe 1/2” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
