Philly is going to die from snow-starvation!

[Anonymous]

Well it looks like another miss next weekend for philly. Lastest models are saying that this is a southern storm. Well, we will just have to wait AGAIN for a DESCENT size storm.

I hope so - Knoxville needs a good snow dump. I will keep my fingers crossed that the Low deepens enough to pull the cold back into play.

We in the deep south die of this every winter. At least you have seen snow.

Precisely (although we did see a couple of flurries back in December, I seem to recall about 8 of them came to visit our house).

I'm ready for some accumulating snow!! (please...for January 26--it's my twins' birthday. We go through this "birthday snow-vigil" every year, wishing, hoping, waiting--and being let down).

Three quick points:

1) Philly will see accumulating snow. One should not write off Winter 2004-05.

2) Things have been far worse. In 1972-73, Philadelphia received no snow.

3) Of the 27 seasons where Philadelphia received less snowfall than NYC and Washington, DC, the five worst were:

Code: Select all

Season    PHL     NYC    DCA
1890-91   15.2"   28.8"   37.1"
1891-92   19.9"   25.4"   41.7"
1893-94   20.3"   36.1"   25.4"
1956-57    7.9"   21.9"   14.2"
1959-60   21.8"   39.2"   24.3"

No. I was being sarcastic there and Wxguy did give you another link to GFS. There are many different models.

My point is that sometimes your questions seem like you have no idea where any of the information is coming from and then next you make statements about how the models are showing that the storm could be more of a southern storm. The models update every six hours so asking another question one hour after the newest round has been discussed is not going to result in too much more new information.
