Allentown Wins
>> Sunday, January 24, 2016
Very quick update before I head out into town.
Allentown finished with 31.9 inches. I have yet to find any other town within our region who has reported more. Below is courtesy of Philly.com
By the way I just noticed the dot marking the airport is not accurate. You have to move it north and a bit east. As I've mentioned before if you are standing at the PPL Center in Allentown, you are further away from the official reporting station for the city than I am sitting in my living room in Bethlehem.
Also, my title implies Allentown wins something. They don't. They just happened to have the highest totals. The prize is a lot of shoveling with extra weight.
Wanted to quickly touch base on this week. Nothing the rest of the year will compare to this storm, but it's likely the next rounds of winter weather will occur during the week instead of a time many people were off.
Tuesday into Wednesday needs to be monitored. Nothing serious but there is an interesting dynamic setting up in the Baltimore to Philadelphia area. Go figure. Also, places to the north of Philadelphia (Allentown/Poconos) might have to deal with a very minor ice threat. Then, monitoring an Alberta clipper for Friday which appears more like an Ontario clipper. Total accumulations look like less than an inch. Big whoop.

RD-Thanks for all the analysis and updates! You worked hard for this one.
It took us 2.5 hrs to clear the driveway...WITH the snow blower! For a "normal" snowfall 6-12" it may take me 45 min to clear the driveway.
Tomorrow we'll have to dig out by the street because the snowplows will plow us back in. So that will take a little time. And we'll have to dig THROUGH the FIVE FOOT snow drift in front of our house in order to get to the front door. At least it'll be a sunny day to be outside.
Enjoy the snow! I know how much you love it!
And keep us posted on any upcoming storms.
