This is the coldest it’s been leading up to any snow event since maybe 10 years as far as I can remember

2-6? Really? C'mon...

I’m gonna go out in a limb here and say the precipitation type is not gonna be an issue except maybe for the first half an hour

Wind now NW. Temp down to 40 DP 29 WB 36

Temp rapidly dropping here. 29.0

Let me tell you about the $1500 snow blower I bought in mid Feb 2010 and never used until 2014! Jinxes are real…and sometimes expensive!

New BOX map.

Using our new Franklin station? Literally just finished installing yesterday. https://www.njweather.org/station/3678

Lanco screw zone. Gotta be right.

MU says it's here between 6-8pm.

mPING reports of all snow in southern Franklin County. Encouraging.

BS. It's a max of 41 per the Weatherflow stations along the Barnegat and LBI barrier islands. Car thermometers are terrible. They'll be reading 105 when it's in the low 99s

41 and cloudy here but dew is 22.

Just pulled the snow shovel out, and you know what that means, that means nothing because jinxes aren't real. Glad this has evolved into much wider event! It was agonizing tracking a narrow band. It's fun seeing mby be in or near the jackpot. In honesty, and this is not a meteorological opinion, usually the highest totals will wind up at least a bit NW of here, even when we are favored, will not be surprised at all. Let's roll!!!

I’m going to head out here pretty soon to get an update. From my window looks to be maybe 1.5”. But it’s an awesome look outside. Can’t wait for tonight when the neighborhood turns on the lights .

What’s the true timing of this?

I got an English (online) 8am Tuesday and a chemistry final (in person) 7pm Tuesday but otherwise I'm free. I've decided Ill make a list of study topics for chemistry and if I finish them it'll be a 10pm-midnight car adventure for me!

38/26 in Somerset. Perfectly fine for snow. Advisory bumped us up to 3-5"

37/27f here. Not too bad of a starting point. Also temps should start dropping slowly since sunset is approaching

I’d probably make a 1.5 hour drive home for a 2-3” event and free lodging & food if I wouldn’t need to turn around just a few hours later. But this isn’t a big dog. You’d be okay to stay put. If you’ve got no reason to be in Cville any longer for the semester, I’d rally back for sure.

4pm NWS Obs all showing westerly winds in the city and at Newark. CP down to 39 with a DP of 25

Road cams show snow wear of Cumberland already

I hope it gets resolved soon. Apparently things aren't in sync where we want them to be with kelvin waves/ rosby waves etc. Larry Cosgrove is good, but he sometimes hypes things too much. He has much experience doing weather for a long time. He called for a warm December and cold mid January through March. I hope he is correct.

Tonight I'm in our temporary PVD rental. I'll be heading up to Pit2 (Maine) tomorrow. On Friday, we'll have a new Pi1 in Mattapoisett. At that point, I'll never speak of PVD again. Most of my time this last few months has been in Bath. The new house will require a lot of work. So barring getting a job in Maine, I'll be spending a lot of time with the new fixer-upper. I'll hightail it to Maine whenever there's a storm coming----hopefully snow blowing bill be a frequent excuse to get up there.
