[MD Expat in PA]

Reporting in from York County PA.

I am in the upper edge but within the predicted 24" to 36" range.

The snowfall rate and winds have increased greatly in just the last hour or so, now coming down at 2" to 3" per hour rate and visibility getting near zero. There has been some "Thundersnow" here. We have about 14" so far, but are only half way through the worst part of the storm.

Watching local Channel 8 and there are reports of some PenDot snowplows and emergency vehicles getting stuck or sliding off the roads.

One thing I notice from looking out my 2nd floor apartment window, is that the snow is not sticking to the tree limbs. Seems like a very powdery snow. Bad for drifting and the clearing of the roads but good as far as the potential for power outages.

Thundersnow is really cool but kind of creepy.

Whenever we get it, I go in. No knowing where the lightning is and how far away.

Powdery? Odd, no? I’d expect wet, sticky snow coming off the water like that.
