Eyeballing 2” of snow/ice; but it’s wintry looking outside and snow is falling currently. Never expected all that much, but certainly the sleet-fest was not ideal. Oh well, it should be enough for the kids snow tubes; onto the next storm!
-
Heavy sleet in Chester; down to 23 degrees. Hopefully the cold flushes out some of the warmth so we can grab a few inches to get the kids out sledding tomorrow.
-
If it means anything, I just watched 10-12 power company trucks head southbound on 206 from Chester. Perhaps gearing up for repairs due to ice accretion south of me?
-
15/4 as I just posted in the main thread. We are under a WSW, with point click at 4-6”; candidly I think we come up short of that range. Good luck to those east of me.
-
15/4 out my way in this part of western Morris County. Nearly every model has the sharp cut-off with the good totals to my immediate southwest, so my expectations are in line. I would note, to my untrained eye, the CAD isobars seem primed to put up a good fight with whatever warmth is coming; keep the faith for those north/east of me.

Grabbed an 1” out of that band; rates are lighter now.
-
Woke up to a dusting; getting a decent band with better rates now. Schools are closed to extend the long break.
-
OT, but I am impressed at how rapidly snowman19 throws a weenie tag on @MJO812. Initial post was 31 minutes ago, followed by the weenie 26 minutes ago. All happening before 6:00 am on a Saturday It’s almost like you guys have each others accounts linked.
-
Update: winds ripped apart our pergola roof. Meh…
-
Heavy thunderstorm in Chester; lightening/thunder, hail, heavy rain and wind. Hoping I keep power for a few more minutes to finish up work.
-
Creeks are rising quickly due to the ground being frozen solid. My snow pack is now a few shoveled piles…. Farewell my friend, we hardly knew thee. And, now off to chaperone a kindergarten Holiday party as my wife, who volunteered, is down with illness.
-
Chilly morning; sitting at 13.
-
Likely 5.5-6” in chester when I left at 7:30. Sitting behind a convoy of plow trucks on route 80 east now. Main roads are ok, local roads you need 4-wheel.
-
Heading out shortly to verify but eyeballing 4”; clearly more than I expected. Cheers all.
-
29 with moderate, very fine snow. Just came back in from a quick foray into the yard with the dog; 1/4” down. Better rates are overtaking the State now; good luck all!
-
Every model has some weird sucker-whole running thru MMU; I’m keeping expectations low for my area.
-
Another cold morning out this way; 18 currently. With a dusting of snow it looks like early winter.
-
“Lies, damned lies and statistics”… be careful with stats and stick to real time observations.
-
Interesting micro-climate observation out my way; as I climbed in elevation north of 287/78 interchange on 206, it flipped to heavy snow about 1/4 mile south of my home. 1/2” on all surfaces, even pavements.
-
10+ day maps should be weighed lightly, in either warm or cold directions, in my opinion.
-
Long way out, though a warm up is likely; can’t expect to have multiple -10 days in perpetuity.
-
Touched 8 in Chester at 6:00 or so. Up to a balmy 22 now.
-
Snow clinging to tree limbs out this way. My kids ran into my bedroom at 6:45 to wake me up and tell me it snowed. It’s just something about snow…
-
Dusting to 1/2” in Chester. All surfaces covered and road crews came thru.
-
Saw 11 at 7am curious; maybe single digits next week?
