I actually drove down from the Binghamton area earlier today and traveled under the incipient stages of this line. I have no doubt you obtained some great shots from your spot based upon what I saw coming down I380 from the Scranton area. These cells were low topped but spectacular to watch as they evolved. Tonight I am seeing something I have not seen in the 14 years I have been here (I moved from LI). The Back door / seebreeze front has just moved a couple of miles to my west. There is about a 15 degree temperature difference across Bethlehem tonight with this front. That pales in comparison to the 25 degree difference across NYC last night with the same front. It is very rare that a front like this gets this far west from NYC.

Just to make things interesting that line of showers and thunderstorms moving across eastern PA and NW NJ is putting down some CTG lightning.

Still moderate to heavy snow here in Bethlehem Twp. 6.2”. 33/32

Steady snow 31/29

Obs up in Hazleton PA showing mixed precipitation up there and they are up over 1000’. Looking like we have ourselves an I84 special in the making tonight.

Light rain 34/28

Light rain 34/26

My. Holly has just issued a snow squall warning for eastern PA and western NJ.

Steady snow with a coating on the ground. 29/25

A lot of what falls in our region from that run is actually ice.

Moderate snow 3”OTG. 31/30

Steady snow 1” new. 31/29

Steady very light snow 24/21 - light coating on paved surfaces.

Who cares where he posts from?? The issue of timely warnings / advisories applies to everybody.

Based upon the available model outputs the probability of 6”+ snow fall is not high enough to justify a WSW south of the Poconos in the LV. That is what the NWS is looking at. Maybe a WWA gets issued later.

It was not even the phasing so much as the incredible bombing and intensification of SLP as it moved NNE along the coast that morning. My barometer read under 28.60 when it passed where I was at on the north shore of LI.

Do you really think 2-2-76 is a potential analog for this?

Have just changed over here in Bethlehem Twp. to rain/sleet mix - 32/31. 2” new

What are your thoughts regarding freezing rain potential on the north shore of LI into the city based upon the NAM surface projections during Saturday night?

SREF??

We had a severe ice storm on LI in January 1978. I have pictures of trees and shrubs in my yard encased in 1-2” of ice. The pictures are amazing. I could upload them but because of the file size restrictions on this board I am unable to do so.

It may have been 2007.

I have seen an extended period of heavy freezing rain at +12.

I am starting to see some flurries up here in Bethlehem.
