tombo82685 Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 do you let yours melt down by room temp or by adding warm water? room temp, it should melt pretty quick i would imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 room temp, it should melt pretty quick i would imagine That's what I have my parents do too. I run it under hot water to speed it up (i.e., place it in a bowl in the sink and run hot water over the outside and into the bowl). That speeds things up somewhat.

It should be considered a felony to melt that beautiful snow BTW Ray, your brother wont be happy-- JFK stayed all snow, but it might not matter as this storm could be over by the time he's scheduled to leave.

Hurricane Agnes Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Looks like it's done here. Partly cloudy with the sky brightening (can see the distinct cloud line heading east along a front). OBS Partly Cloudy Temp 31.3 F and falling rapidly (it was > 34 F earlier w/ lt snow and fog) Winds light out of the NW Ballpark measurement is 2 ", The stuff is wet and probably compacted and there are ice cycles forming now. Looks like the cold air is on its way now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

famartin Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 4.2 at Central Park and 3.8 at home easily fits in my 3-6" range... Philly was much lower with a measily 0.6 but they weren't really in my forecast zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsley Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I am impressed to say that overall, the GFS seems to have done best QPF wise by far. In between the flaky but generaly wet NAM and GEM, and the dry EC... GEM wasn't too wet in my opinion. I think it was right on as well. 0.20"-0.40" across most of eastern PA for the past 36-48 hours.
