Weird. My station has sat near my pool for 10 years now and I’ve never noticed a difference compared to other weather stations nearby. Hell @wxmeddler helped me find the spot for it :lol:

I used to have my old Vantage pro next to the pool, it ran warmer for sure, especially in may when I would crank the pool heat to 90!

Only issue is that was 15 years ago and models have certainly improved since, but I hope you’re right.

Most reputable models get the 4 inch line up to York. 6 inches up to the MD line is still in play. The cutoff will be sharp but I don't think it will be as severe as the examples PSU gave.

I was referencing those storms as similar setups wrt a sharp northern snowfall cutoff.  Models still struggle with pinning down the exact location and qpf with the h7 banding near the northern periphery of these type waves. They did it just last winter in Feb.  The banding shifted north at the last minute and places forecast to get 1-3” in central PA got 6-12”!  

Yeah, we were forecasted for 2+ days to be the jackpot and poof!

I think my 6-8” from yesterday may be a touch high, but who knows for all the reasons being discussed. I told the mom group chat  (all southern York county residents) that there will be a gradient from a lot to very little somewhere along, north, or south of the PA line. lol

@North Balti Zen will go off the rails if there's a 30 mile last minute shift south and his old neighborhood get 6 plus and Monkton gets 2. Lol. :lol:

Heh. I would like to think curmudgeonly resignation...but...yes, if it goes like that, I will be most uncivil for upcoming threats when people from the repeatedly snowy south claim we always cash in up this way.  Six years waiting for a warning level snow and counting. Can we get a  legit 5 plus inches here? Sure hope so! Fingers corssed.

Is it closer than 10ft?  Yours is further away, right?  It just seems like my dews are really high compared to just about everyone close by

Thats a nice station. I need a new one. Not sure I want to spend that much though. 

I got mine in 2006 when I bought the house. Still going strong.  Wasn’t cheap but with that kind of durability it’s been worth it.  And when I have had the occasional issue, Davis has been awesome to deal with.

High and mid-level clouds rolling in with some hazy sunshine peeking through.  Not sure of the exact temperature where I'm at, but I'd have to guess low 30s.  I went out for a bit of a walk not long ago and it was quite cold, especially with that occasionally brisk wind.  I guess that would constitute a "pre-Jebwalk" walk, warming up for hopefully many such Jebwalks this upcoming week!

Further. Pool, a large concrete walkway, plants in stone, then station once grass starts.
