So yeah been reading the MA side and hearing about the slightly worse 18z and then realized wait what the run wasn't done at 144hrs, it was likely going to put up a 24-28" meatball over me in the next panel lol.

Relief

I mean seriously everything right now is a total wait and see but models are nice to look at.  The speed and movements of the pieces are going to change over the next 24-48 hours I believe especially once our power house storm leaves Sunday.  Once again we are staring at an interesting storm coming in tomorrow to Sunday complete with snow to rain possibly thunderstorms for some followed by power outage 50 mph gusts Sunday into Monday, but yet we find ourselves looking beyond to what is coming in 4.5 days we have been doing this since the thunderstorm hail fest right before Christmas.  I’m still in the camp a lot of things can go wrong with this set up the one I fear most is the guide stage right out to sea and or develop too late and bury New England time will tell.  If 20” is still on the table come Monday night I’m really excited!

Euro ai is sitting on the beach in Bermuda with a watermellon martini complete with the tiny floral umbrella laughing at us. It's so far away you can't not laugh.

 

I don't have a good feel about next week if I'm being totally honest and not the usual wiggum playing devils advocate sorta thing. We've been teased with the eps mega snow mean TWICE this season  already, and both times, the mid Atlantic took the brunt and we got advisory type stuff. 

We are in a Nina. And so far climo has played out with Delaware and South Jersey taking the bulk of the storms.

Why would this be different? Seriously, change my mind that this is going to morph into even a low-end MECS for SE PA? I just am getting bad vibes from the minute the GFS mirrored March 2001 last night. Prove me wrong.

I’m afraid to say the trend all season has been South no reason at this point to think any different. I think we’ll know by Sunday if Lucy is warming up or not. I’ve Nickle and dimed my way to 15” so far

I want to give all you snow weenies out there a heads up.  I am currently employed as a  township consultant for planning.  (Yeah retirement hogwash need the bucks LOL) Last night at the local township meeting, I was told by the public works director  that they been told by salt suppliers that many (dozens) municipalities are OUT OF SALT. They the township maybe  resorting to sand.  The salt suppliers were told it will be 10-15 days before the municipalities y will be resupplied.   Will not help after Sunday thats for sure.  I expect a state disaster will be issued sometime after Sunday for any major  storm over 6" so as the salt bins can filled in a hurry. The media has been kept out the picture on this entire situation but not for long because what municipality wants to broadcast to the media that they are out of salt or have a limited amount to their residents? Yes these numerous "nuisance" storm events have quickly escalated  to a road disaster as many municipalities have already expended their salt budget twice over. Once the news gets out folks, hold on to hat. Thus far the media is too damn busy covering social BS and Trump doings. They better worry about their own dam backyard first as I always say. 


 

really this is an issue on the municipalities. And I work for one. We are near out, in a major city. 
 

no training, and no calibration of salt spreaders. Bad recipe

NAM is a little better for snow tomorrow in southeast PA 1-2" southeast and 2-4" northwest

 

Approximately what action news was saying at 6:00 p.m. . Coating to an inch from Philly to the local burbs then one to two inches upper Bucks and Montgomery county into Berks. I'll go with the lesser snow amounts because this crap has changed over way quicker than forecasted in the previous events...

28f and clouds rolling in..
