Just found out today that NWS Pittsburgh moved official snow measurements for Pittsburgh starting this winter to their WFO a few miles NE of KPIT; the NWS rep explained to me that the WFO is typically colder at night than KPIT due to better cold air drainage and, more importantly, less pavement.

It's going to get cold in the Northeast. How cold is to be determined.


Speaking of cold. Check out Alaska... -50F


Hope some snow by the weekend




So far this winter snowfall has been pitiful

Listening to the radio this morning it sounds like the northeast (or maybe just part of it) got the fine powder snow. Is that typical out there? Thought it was usually the clumpy/big flakes type.

Usually the clippers and minor snowfalls tend to be more powdery (not always though). It was an impressively cold storm, but it certainly isn't unprecedented. This past weekend's snowfall (6 inches) was a heavy wet snow. Temps were closer to freezing and rose above during the day.

Is the western US and Canada projected to remain above average for the remainder of winter?

Warmer in New Orleans than Stuart

Most of this morning's snow is already gone even though it's still below freezing, thanks to the sun.
