north pgh Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 1.25 qpf. Almost all snow. I'll take a little mixing if we can get an 8-12 storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paweatherguy1 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Nam is EPIC!!! We have close to .75 inches of qpf and still snowing at the end of the run! These runs remind me of one a couple days before feb 5-6 last year...and it's moving into the short range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the 1.25 is over 60 hours. .75 is the storm...I would say we end up with an inch if you went out 6 more hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that wrong. .75 -1.00 qpf. Still more like 6-8. Things could change in an hour though. Let's just lock this thing in and everyone can have a 3 day weekend.

I haven't seen the final QPF or snow accumulation, but as depicted that looks all snow and still going at 84 hours. I don't want to get too fired up about NAM at 84 hours, but I bet this translates to a foot + as modeled if extrapolated beyond 84 Someone mentioned Feb 4 1995 as an analog. For some reason I remember that storm...I think we got about 6". I think I remember it because that was a slow winter sandwiched in between the great winters in the early to mid 90's http://www.meteo.psu.edu/~gadomski/NARR/1995/us0204.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the last event did not satisfy my "big storm" need either. Certainly a nice front end thump....then 48 hours of nice of on and off LES. No complaints here, but it was what it was.
