Hi everyone! I went through some archived data and compiled some information for a few locations - looking at predicted flood stages with today/tomorrow's event in comparison to recent flood events (mainly Ghost of Ivan 2004, April floods of 2005, late June floods of 2006 and the October flooding last year).
Today features a little bit of everything EXCEPT - you guessed it, snow! We started off the morning with heavy rain in the city and surrounding areas, and even some dangerous icing in the higher elevations of the Poconos.
Well, after a week of quiet weather it looks like we have another snow event on our hands!

By Kate Bilo: "I Love The Smell of WAA in the Morning ..." WAA in weather terms = Warm Air Advection, and that's what's going to give us a nice little spring preview for the rest of the week!
By Kate Bilo: Today's weather is the direct result of that frontal passage - temperatures will be more than 20 degrees colder than yesterday!
By Kate Bilo: Well, it's Valentine's Day and our much-anticipated warming trend has begun!
