And whatever snow other places around here are getting won't stick today.
.we average about 50 inches of snow a year. Not all of it sticks. It doesn't need to stick to count as snow. A few days ago we had a micron stick but the official snow totals at nws were about 2.5 inches.
I can explain the 2.5 inches by the airport and nothing in the city Sunday evening. With the system on Sunday evening, there was a band of moderate snow that was able to accumulate 1 to 2 inches in areas of far western Allegheny County and to the west of that because it basically held stationary over the same areas. By the time the banding finally shifted east towards the city around midnight, the best dynamics were over, so what snow did fall here had a much harder time accumulating, because it wasn't as heavy and the temps were marginal.
