    Philly Weekend Weather Weather - Fri PM
    The 0.06 inches water predicted by the models was probably exceeded slightly and the cold temps made the ratio 1:18, so in our area we had 1-2 inches of snow.

    The cyclonic flow from the departing low will give us a mix of clouds and some breaks of sun on Saturday. High pressure builds in on Sunday, as the temps are able to finally increase to above freezing.

    Sat 1/26: A mix of clouds and some sun. Cold and windy. High 26.

    Sun 1/27: Sunny and cold (although milder than it's been in several days). High 33.

    Philly Winter Weather Discussion- Fri 6 AM
    An Alberta Clipper type disturbance in the upper cyclonic flow may cause very light snow to fall towards Friday evening. The upper air configuration does not favor development of the storm near Philadelphia and therefore minimal snow is expected.

    The models push out a QPF of about 0.06 inches water. This suggests about 1 inch of snow.

    However, Alberta Clippers that redevelop off the coast sometimes transfer so much of their angular momentum and vertical velocity offshore that their precip jumps over and misses our area almost totally-- it wouldn't surprise me if there's more salt on the roads than snow.
