The Iceman

Just went out to the snowboard, .5” of sleet so far. 7.6” snow + sleet total

Is this controversial? I honestly don’t hate the sleet as long as we get the snow thump(which we did). If we can grab 2-3” of sleet for an even 10” glacier, I’ll be beyond happy.

Cheers friends! Seemed appropriate with the changeover to sleet. Time for the old drink, shovel, drink, shovel, drink routine this afternoon. winds still out of the north even with the changeover, still 15F. Zero shot we are getting above freezing.

Yeah I shoveled when we had about 5” of snow, now I’ll just have the 2” and whatever sleet falls. Still going to be a bitch later

You’ll love it when you have a glacier for a month

Fully over to sleet. Clearing the board again. 7.1” of snow.

7” with snow pellets mixing in. Another .75” in the last 30 mins.

The rates since 7 am have been amazing, thump has delivered imo

Another 1.25” on the board. 6.25” of powder

Prolific rates right now, just crossed 5 inches in Levittown. Had to clear the board as it was getting tough to find it in the yard with all the drifting.

4.25” at 10 am over an inch last hour time for a jeb walk!

CC showing the sleet line approaching Smyrna, DE and Cape May.

3” on the snow board at 9 am in Levittown snow growth still isn’t great and we are definitely getting drifting now and stuff blowing off the roof.

Nah you’ve just spent all storm worried about the changeover you’re now hallucinating it… relax and enjoy the snow while it lasts. Literally no one in the entire area, not even Delaware is mixing yet.

1.5” on the snowboard at 7 am 13F

I will believe it when I see it

Best rates of the day currently. Estimating around an inch, will go out and check the board at 8.

Buckle up Mesoscale Discussion 0054 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0501 AM CST Sun Jan 25 2026 Areas affected...Pennsylvania...New Jersey...Northern West Virginia...Northern Virginia...Northern Delaware...New Jersey...Far Southeast New York Concerning...Heavy snow Valid 251101Z - 251700Z SUMMARY...Heavy snowfall, with rates of around 1 inch per hour, is expected to continue to develop from parts of the upper Ohio Valley eastward to the Mid-Atlantic this morning. DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery shows widespread snowfall ongoing from the Ohio Valley eastward into the Mid-Atlantic. This is occurring along a broad zone of strong isentropic ascent, aided by warm advection associated with a 50 to 60 knot low-level speed max over the southern Appalachians. The exit region of this feature will continue to move northward this morning into the upper Ohio Valley and northern Mid-Atlantic, helping to gradually intensify snowfall rates. This will result in areas of heavy snow from Pennsylvania and northern Virginia eastward to New Jersey and far southeastern New York. Snowfall rates of 1 inch per hour will be possible within the more well-defined bands that setup. The heavy snowfall potential from Pennsylvania and New Jersey northward should continue through the mid to late morning. In northern Virginia, Maryland and Delaware, a changeover to freezing rain is expected by late morning. ..Broyles/Mosier.. 01/25/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

I’m rocking this playlist right now whoever Philip J. Is on Apple Music is a real weenie, great soundtrack to the morning.

Back to pixie dust here now, fresh coating on everything though. 15F

It’s definitely snowing in Trenton. I’m right across the river, 5 miles west and it’s steady now. Pixie dust the last hour before that.

Wow that escalated quickly, really coming down now. Steady snow. Going to be great ratios this morning.

Pixie dust here, better echoes beginning to move in. Should really get going in the next hour

Good morning people! Brewing a cup of coffee waiting for the first flakes, radar looks great. Think we are going to thump hard.

Setting the alarm for 3 am, hope we are snowing decent by then. Temp steady at 16F. Looks like first echoes heading into reading/chester, anyone getting flakes?
