Now that snow is breaking out across central PA I am starting up this thread for observations for tonight's event.

Virga in eastern PA already.

We might not see too much virga with this one. Mod to strong echoes on the front edge, Tatamy.

Air is not too dry either.

You don't want to get ahead of yourself. Snow is not yet reaching the ground in the Harrisburg region of PA. It usually takes a little longer before it starts to reach the ground east of the mountains and that's what I'm waiting for. We have some time to go yet.

          The Phila. radar seem to have a malfunction in the echoes from the Phil. area and the southern half of NJ. That's not right. Other radars have that area filled in.

          You can see how it looks unnatural.

          This one is ok.
