Sure made for a quick melt of the overnight snow. Nothing left here. More like a mid to late March type melt than the 3rd. of February.

Just scant traces left here. Had 1.2" early this morning.

Might be more like 60-72 hours.

1.2" here with a melted total of .13".

1.2" here with a melted total of .13".

That is a cold looking pattern for around mid-month. It is 10-14 days out so we'll see if it backs off as time goes on but will be impressive if it verifies. We'll need to get our snow before pattern potentially becomes suppressive, at least for a while around mid-month.

Most robust we've seen in quite a while. We will see what ptypes fall where. Just nice to see the QPF for a change.

KU or BUST in my opinion. Bring it or get me to Spring. Don't need or want these little nuisance events. Beyond annoying at this point mostly because they are just another excuse to do another major salt dump. And I will add that no matter how "favorable" this upcoming patter looks to some it is not even close to anything that would yield a KU event. Like I said yesterday I know some locations in this sub forum are snow starved and will take anything and I wish you all well, I really do but I can do without the little events.

Can't say I disagree with this statement. Much will depend on the push of cold air from the the north and where surface boundary sets itself up. This will vary from event to event. Just know that if it stays mostly to the north there is going to be great disappointment. Have to believe though that at least 1 or 2 events could produce some light to moderate snow totals for most of this sub forum before the month is over. Going to be a lot of back and forth from one guidance cycle to the next over the coming week.

Honestly, I'll take it. Would rather some good snows but I'm done with all the nuisance type events. We need the rain so I'll take that over bothersome light events. I know some of you are in locations that are truly snow starved this season, I get it. You will take pretty much anything.

Received .16" of rainfall for event just ended. Disappointment but it did rid us of the road salt. January total precipitation = 1.03". January snowfall = 8.2" Snowfall season to date = 23.7".

This thread over the last 6-8 hours:

Radar trends looking crappy for any decent rainfall totals for NNJ today / tonight. Sitting at .04" so far today. Would be very surprised if I get to .25". Maybe just enough to rid us of the road salt, including what was dumped early this morning. Best rains going north and south for most of this sub forum. These were the trends over the last few days so not much of a surprise.

Hope we can get .25 - .50" out of this. Guidance has been trending to the lighter side last few days.

Sorry, mistake. Didn't read the map title. Scrolling through too fast. Even so, pretty close to normal and we need more than normal to erase the departures we currently have. Having said that I will take anything at this point.

If those amounts are all that is realized over the next 15 days - not good.

and the oh so popular newly released single from late December 2024: Buckle up !

Anything to get rid of this road salt will be welcome in my book. Thinking .25" to .50" is a reasonable forecast for most at this point.

Boy, the latest EURO sure has pulled the plug on the previously forecast warmup for next week. Will be key where front sets up. Still some time for it to adjust more northward or southward. We'll see. Not going to be much QPF with a flow like that. Hopefully we can cash in on .25" - .50" over the weekend. I'm a hard lean toward the .25" at this point.

Down to about 85% snow coverage here. South facing locations pretty much down to bare ground. Full coverage elsewhere with an average depth of 2.5". This would be rainfall but man I'm rooting for it. Need to wash this salt away.

Honestly, without meaningful snow who needs it. By meaningful I'm talking 12" forum wide. Otherwise let it warm up and rain. I'm done with the cold and piddly snow events. It is dry and we could use the rain. Let the weenies and buns fly.

Was living in Long Hill Township for the event. Was one of my favorites!

Yep, free wheeling discussions for the next 7-10 days.

Great storm. Epic! Had 29" at my old location in southeast Morris County. Seems CP measured good on this one!
