  1. You were probably under that crazy band that was cranking out that way for several hours earlier. I was under a band this morning that got us off to a good start. Are you up on that mountain just south of town?
  2. Strongly agree. The Ukie was consistent in calling for the higher precip amounts further to the west. One of the more interesting aspects was how the GEFS was consistently to the west of the OP on this one. In any case it has been a while since I have seen such a big bust to the high side in my area.
  3. Not sure if you have been watching radar trends however there has been nice banding across eastern PA and NW NJ with this event. I am in the Lehigh Valley and have already passed 2". I think we will be good for 3 - 4" out this way.
  4. It's on its way. Steady light snow down here in the Lehigh Valley of PA. Radar is starting to light up pretty good just upwind of me.
  5. We are underway here. It started about 9am. It was like somebody shook the clouds as it started coming down quickly. I overlook South Mountain near Bethlehem and you could see the dump starting. Now have light snow, visibility 1 mile and the ground has been whitened. 31*
  6. How about a WWA for Brownsville, TX with accumulating snow of up to 1" !!! That is their forecast for tomorrow.
  7. Has a deformation zone up towards you and across NW NJ with high ratio snows.
  8. 78 was worse on the north shore. There was 1" of ice on trees and shrubs in my yards. I have a picture somewhere of one of those seedballs from a Sycamore tree that was the size of a baseball with all of the ice on it. This was the most destructive ice storm I ever experienced.
  9. On the site that calculates the Kuchera ratio it shows up to 1.5"
  10. 12z NAM backs off - just a small accumulation across NW NJ.
  11. 0z NAM 12K had this also. Looks like an outlier for now.
  12. 0z NAM 12K is indicating that we do not have to wait until Sunday. It is stronger with the wave for Tuesday evening and shows rain changing to accumulating snows across northern and western NJ and eastern PA to the tune of 2 - 4". This is from the Pivotal Wx maps. NAM 3K has a warmer solution.

  14. The 12z Euro is projecting that the storm will be taking on hybrid characteristics while it approaches us. That means that it is also taking energy from baroclinic forces. The other models are not seeing this happen to the degree that the Euro is. This could result in greater impacts with higher winds. The 12z Euro is projecting wind gusts at the surface (10m) to be 40 - 60 MPH in gusts Tuesday night and Wednesday morning on the south shore beaches and across eastern LI (EuroWx). That would argue for a Tropical storm watch. I will add the Euro is projecting the storm to be a full fledged hurricane Tuesday evening centered 200 miles to the east of Ocean City, MD with winds gusting to 92 MPH at 10m. This would make for some tremendous seas and serious coastal flooding.
