Almost every model run late has a round one warm dump, then a break, then secondary back end , for PA at least. Don’t think we get snows from first part, despite what rap , etc was showing by noon-2 pm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin MaineJay Posted January 28 Admin Share Posted January 28 2 hours ago, StretchCT said: Oooff, thats a lot of qpf. We don't really need another 2" of rain around here. We have about 3" of snow on the ground, bit I'm sure there's 4" of liquid equivalent. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meteorologist so_whats_happening Posted January 28 Meteorologist Share Posted January 28 I really wonder where some of these folks think the cold air is coming from and how much moisture remains to accumulate that much. Outside of terrain it is going to be extremely difficult to get more than 1-2" and that may even be pushing it. Not good sign on some of these short range models when you see areas of central and southern NY in rain and the 850mb freezing line bisects NY. You want that to be down to -2C area to get a solid chance at snow. Hope next time we get a storm to roll in like this there is at least a high better positioned north of us to filter in the cold better. Quite the heavy wet snow producer for Catskills and Berkshires hope those areas fair well and do not lose power. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteorologist so_whats_happening Posted January 28 Meteorologist Share Posted January 28 Looks like the low over North Carolina is starting to takeover now as the ULL slowly fills in to the west. Cool satellite imagery with even some bits of convection showing up over VA. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDClapper Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 40 and steady rain. If EPS is gonna be right, it better get on its horse and drop 6 degrees or so in the next 2-3 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin MaineJay Posted January 28 Admin Share Posted January 28 31.1° with some impressively dense fog. Tough too tell as it's still dark, but visibilities look 500' at best on my hill. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin MaineJay Posted January 28 Admin Share Posted January 28 Had to check it was updated, because it looks just like it's did last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they are still too "cold", I say. (For PA) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wtkidz Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) I just love living in the southern mid Atlantic, in the space of 75 miles. You ca n experience all forms of weather. from LWX A brief period of gusty east to northeast winds is expected along/east of I-95 this morning into early afternoon, with gusts up to 20-25mph. The heaviest rain ends late this morning to early afternoon. After, cloudy skies and a steady drizzle/light rain will continue through the afternoon and evening. Temperatures today remain in the 40s, though some spots in central VA and far southern MD could reach 50F. Temperatures in the Alleghenies drop late this afternoon as precip transitions to snow above 2500 feet. As the low moves offshore winds begin to turn north, then northwest this evening as a cold front sweeps through the area tonight. Lingering moisture and cold air advecting in could lead to a mix of rain and snow for higher elevations west of US-15 and in northeast MD late tonight, though no accumulation. For the Alleghenies, snow amounts of 1-2" are expected through tonight, along a few tenths of an inch of snow is expected in the northern Blue Ridge. Some freezing rain could mix in tonight in parts of the Alleghenies, though any ice accretion would be a glaze to a couple hundredths of an inch. Temperatures drop below freezing in the mountains, and in the mid to upper 30s elsewhere. NW winds pick up during the second half of the night, gusting to 20-25mph, and up to 35mph in the mountains.

JDClapper Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Wonder if we will see a spectacular snow capped mountain here in town. The pws reporting 34 is 2000'ish in elevation with radar showing at least a snow mix if now wet snow now up there. In the valley, upper 30s, 40 at 500'ish elevation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingTer Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Temps in Vernon, NJ dropped 2 degrees to 35 in last hour with rain/snow mix at 600ft. I’m going to take a drive on the road behind MountainCreek ski resort at about 1200ft to see if it’s all snow up there. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowloverSid Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 So far, zero surprises in the Binghamton area: rain with temperatures slow to fall: typical late-November/ early-December conditions . They will be lucky to even get two inches of snow in the higher elevations out of this system. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazman Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 36 degrees now and a steady Rain all night long here in the (Not so) Great Hazleberg area. Steve T-Rex is going to sleep in. 🦖🚫❄️ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrumberg Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 A foggy, snowy start to this weather event with 32ºF as this morning's low temperature and the temperature remains 32ºF with snow now starting to accumulate. The NWS/B-N Office has issued a Winter Storm Warning for this area and elevations > 500' should see plowable snow. I may see +6" from this storm. 🚜 is down (fuel) and my backup plow guy is overwhelmed by demand and he can not find/get another driver/helper. I/We will probably be plowed in until Wednesday, but We are well "stocked."🤪 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators StretchCT Posted January 28 Moderators Share Posted January 28 So far an inch of rain in the bucket and half inch of sludge on the table and deck. The interesting part is when I went out to empty the bucket, I came back inside, looked at my sleeve of my sweatshirt and felt my hair and it was covered in snow. It doesn't look like snow out there, but if I stick my arm out, it gets pasted in the last remnants of snowflakes. My guess is the tops of the hills here are accumulating more. 35° 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For people that are supposed to flip over, keep an eye on the wind direction for a change. For here , it is currently ENE. When it becomes NE with the coastal, then we should flip. They have changeover for our area around 1 pm. I am further nw and some elevation, so thinking earlier . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
