ColoradoHigh Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 Nor'easter is what all of us LOVE to hear after like a bajillion years of nothing but rain and warmth in January, we might see some fresh northeast powder on the slopes . I was watching NBC10's "weather plus" and the lady on it said that this storm might not bring us anything, but other news stations are saying we will be getting at least 6 or more inches of snow. . I don't know WHO to believe You tell me who I should believe. Quote

ColoradoHigh Posted February 10, 2006 Author Report Posted February 10, 2006 I just DON'T BELIEVE all the stations that give small amounts of snow. Only the higher amounts I believe. HAHAHAHAHA Quote
toast21602 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 accuweather isnt always accurate with predicting storms but when they are right, their precip. forcasts are right on the money. so if they are riht abotu this storm.... 6-12 inches of snow Quote
ColoradoHigh Posted February 10, 2006 Author Report Posted February 10, 2006 But THEY ARE RIGHT, I can feel it in my snow nerves Quote

Dan- Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 I love snowstorms that hit the Philly area because channels 3 , 6 and 10 go crazy for ratings. The live team coverage is the bomb. Sometimes they even send somebody up to Allentown. Glenn Hurricane Schwartz is the best and I'm sure he is swamped with groupies. Well I better check out www.snow-forecast.com If this storm is a bust I'm moving to Jackson Hole.... Wouldn't you want to move to jackson anyway... weather the storms a bust or not. Quote
skifreak Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 I hear it all depends on what track it takes. Quote

toast21602 Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS ISSUED A WINTER STORM WATCH...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING. AFTER TAKING ALMOST A TWO MONTH BREAK, WINTER WILL BE MAKING ITS RETURN WITH AVEANGENCE THIS WEEKEND. LOW PRESSURE FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER THE GULF COAST STATES LATER TODAY WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TOWARD THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION BY SATURDAY. THE STORM IS EXPECTED TO REACH THE COAST LATE SATURDAY NEAR THE VIRGINIA-NORTH CAROLINA BORDER. IT IS THEN FORECAST TO INTENSIFY AS IT MOVES UP THE COAST TO A POSITION JUST EAST OF CAPE COD SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WITH PLENTY OF GULF AND ATLANTIC MOISTURE AVAILABLE, THIS STORM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO DEVELOP INTO A MAJOR NORTHEASTER. SNOW IS EXPECTED TO SPREAD INTO THE REGION AROUND MIDDAY SATURDAY FROM THE SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST. THE SNOW WILL BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS AND CONTINUE WELL INTO THE NIGHT BEFORE TAPERING OFF TO LIGHT SNOW AND FLURRIES TOWARD DAYBREAK. SNOWFALL AMOUNTS OVER MUCH OF OUR FORECAST AREA ARE EXPECTED TO REACH 6 TO 12 INCHES. USING THE AFOREMENTIONED TRACK FOR THIS STORM, THE AXIS OF THE HEAVIEST SNOW WOULD RUN FROM NORTHERN DELAWARE NORTHEAST ACROSS PHILADELPHIA AND TRENTON TO THE NEW YORK CITY AREA. ACCUMULATIONS IN THIS AREA ARE EXPECTED TO BE 8 TO AROUND 12 INCHES. IF THE STORM TRACKS FARTHER EAST, THE HEAVY SNOW WILL SHIFT TO THE EAST. IF IT TRACKS FARTHER WEST, CLOSER TO THE COAST, THE HEAVY SNOW WOULD SHIFT TO THE WEST. WITH THIS TYPE OF AN EXPLOSIVE EAST COAST STORM, IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE TO GET CONVECTION, OR THUNDERSNOW, AT THE HEIGHT OF THE STORM. IF THIS OCCURS, SNOWFALL RATES COULD REACH 2 TO 3 INCHES AN HOUR. THIS WOULD CAUSE TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS TO EXCEED 12 INCHES. THIS STORM WILL HAVE A MAJOR IMPACT ON OUR AREA SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY. IF YOU WILL BE TRAVELING THIS WEEKEND...PLEASE STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO...OR YOUR FAVORITE LOCAL SOURCE OF WEATHER INFORMATION FOR THE LATEST WARNINGS AND STATEMENTS ON THIS WINTER STORM. A WINTER STORM WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW...SLEET...OR ICE ACCUMULATIONS THAT MAY IMPACT TRAVEL. CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS. bring on the snow. i guess all of the bras that have been thrown into the trees in the last 2 months have finaly worked Quote

NJSkiFamily Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 Accuweather updated their commentary - things are looking even better. Weather channel hosts using the word "blizzard" for places like New York City. I can barely type I'm so happy Quote
Papasteeze Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) if it doesnt snow... i'm coming to you. damn... you beat me to it! Uhhhh - either my hero website (noaa.gov) is behind on the updates or....... This is for Tannersville.

Papasteeze Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 To everyone.... use this link for access to more accurate radars. www.noaa.gov is where the majority of commericial weather reporting get their info from. Looping radars are the best! http://www.erh.noaa.gov/radar/latest/DS.p19r0/si.kdix.shtml Quote
