Well, I guess the HRRR was only mostly out to lunch. Sweet- it was the only model that even had that possible.

Those strong echoes in far south Jersey look like they've hit a wall. Not budging northward.

Is that area of lower returns across Central New Jersey due to the Mt Holly radar being down or due to actual lower precipitation rates? That's what I'm trying to figure out.

As of 10:30 pm, it's 33/31F here and we have ~1/4" on the snow, but it's been snowing at what I would estimate at close to 1/2" per hour rates for 1.5 hours, but have just a dusting on cars and maybe 1/4" on the snow, so we've "lost" close to 1/2" of accumulation already and we were only forecast to get maybe 2" or so. Not sure we're getting more intensity, so we need it to drop another degree or so

. Looks good.. it's only 180+ hours out . Yeah.. I mean What could go wrong??..

I didn't realize the 1970s were our most snowless decade until this one. I guess the cold/dry thing is bigger than you would think.

Today's split EWR: 42 / 28 (0) NYC: 40 / 32 (0)

Snowfall intensity has picked up nicely to a moderate rate, even though the heaviest echoes have passed. Reaching saturation? Down to 34 F.

Wet snow here and 34 degrees.

Definitely in your youth since you’re an old man.

0.55 here. Had to drive in it later in the afternoon over to Baltimore to pick up the older Ms. J from a film set. Then drove her back down to DC. Driving on 70, 695 and 95 was not fun. The snow pack created a low fog and along with the rain the glare on the highways made it hard to see if you were in your own lane. Only 200 was decent as the reflective striping was still reflective.

You ARE cherry picking. Why the hell are you choosing 1956? And when you add twenty years to that, 1976, 1996, 2016... the numbers go up only because of COINCIDENCE. The 1950s were MUCH snowier than you think they were, too! Here are the ten-year averages, also graphed below: 1891-1900: 27.1" 1901-1910: 23.1" 1911-1920: 23.0" 1921-1930: 20.0" 1931-1940: 21.0" 1941-1950: 18.5" 1951-1960: 18.5" 1961-1970: 26.5" 1971-1980: 14.5" 1981-1990: 15.4" 1991-2000: 16.3" 2001-2010: 18.0" 2011-2020: 14.9" 2021-2025: 6.8" The UHI effect isn't negligible, but it should NOT cause this steep of a decrease in snowfall!

Temp dropped from 35 to 32 in 30 mins here. Winds are up and the snow went to nothing to boom. Steady lgt to mod snow here currently.

Feb so far: Highs: BOS: 32 OWD: 32.3 BED: 31.0 Lows: BOS: 18.0 OWD: 4.5 BED: 6.2

But those are what drives our weather, so gotta include them in discussions

My forecast has low 80s for Thu/Fri highs…yippee!

31.6

I got ~0.75” of rainfall from showers mid to late this afternoon with some heavy for a short period. This is the most I’ve gotten in a day since at the very least Jan 18th.

We’re cooked in the low levels up thru 925mb or so, the easterly/northeasterly flow from the low going to the south is drawing sub zero 925mb air thats in place from that direction.. hence the backwards changeover. Actually a pretty decent band of precip running along the I-80 corridor from State College over to pretty much NJ, and there’s accumulating snow on the cams on I-81 and 80 near Hazelton and down I-81 as far as at least the US 209 exit north of Pine Grove.
