    I need to look at this, including T sections,. Should have confidence on NYC leftovers... even if they don't record 8" NYC or southern LI and Monmouth County coast have big icing problems ahead, when the temp crashes to 25F in a 30-60 minute period with possible wind shift from NE to N around 5 or 6AM.

    NJ power outages now going up. 10,000 meters. Small but coming up. definitely a bad news for people who need heat.

    This is going to be realll interesting if sleet pounds the MJO 6". Will be curious as to their midnight CLI total.

    Just catching up: you probably all saw the CP 2.6" at 7P. Half way to a daily RER.
  5. wdrag
    HRRR modeled very well...
  6. wdrag
    Ditto Wantage.. just saw your report. We are very close so far. My next report 4am ish

    Wantage NJ 8 s of High Point NJ. Here we're at 740'MSL 845 PM 5.3" Blowing and drifting. small to moderately sized flakes, densely filling the air. 18F Next report around 4am I hope. Cleaned my deck and large spot in the driveway to remeasure at 4A. Took at least a dozen measurements to come up with this answer. On-line til ~10P.

    snow-sleet amounts so far. 715PM ish report

    Dont like the HRRR... it's verifying. sleet seems to be advantageous ing northward fast in se PA. Amounts we see on the ranges...my guess is the low end of those are the more likely. I hope I dont hear ticking before 11PM here in extreme nw NJ.

    Baseline on power outages at 6P. Let's see where this goes. Numerous 40-45kt gusts NJ coast now. Sea Girt in Monmouth county is the rough break point between 40F NJ coast and 32 just north. Wow!

    Just to answer a question that originated 2 hrs ago: Sounding can be 0 or below but if the saturated layer doesn't have any -8C above 2 or 3000 feet, ,hard to get snow in that sounding. In other words, we need ice nuclei or salt nuclei. Usually -8C is the theoretical warmest limit to produce snow via ice nuclei. Here's some depressing guidance for NYC... I hope the probabilistic is too low for 6,12,18. Also add probabilistic chance for .01 freezing rain. The 12z/ 16 HPC HREF you will like but my guess it's 3" too high in NJ/LI...just my guess. That last HPC HREF graphic is for 7P tonight to 7P tomorrow...has no snow prior to 7P. This is it for me for a bunch of hours.

    Wantage Nj 0.d6" small flake possibly ly 3/4 mi snow... 18.9F might be my last ob for quite a while.
  13. wdrag
    Hope it works out. I've lost a little situational awareness on the models. I'll leave it to everyone else to keep me informed.

    Wantage NJ 0.3" 19.F at 450P. 1 mi s-. Added the snow reports to the NWS. 3-5 PHL ILG area. 2" in our NJ forum.

    good use of web cams, I don't use them nearly enough. thanks for the reminder.
  16. wdrag
    HRRR and HRDPS look best at 21z with the CC. This run of the NAM not so hot.
  17. wdrag
    DIX Correlation Coefficient (CC) and of 418PM with mping obs.
  18. wdrag
    snow reports around PHL as of about 345P.
  19. wdrag
    Widespread mdt-heavy snow in PA now edging into PHL and central NJ. Here's a look at about 4PM.
  20. wdrag
    Wantage NJ 4sw: 0.1" new snow since it began 246P. Breezy at times. 19.9/15.8 small flake dense packed snow.
  21. wdrag
    Maybe around 5 or 6P, we'll repost the snow amount forecast (takes a while to get it all collaborated for a post).
  22. wdrag
    Philly 1-2" now per PHI FB page comments.
  23. wdrag
    not happening... not meant to be (at least I don't think so). Wind compaction, sleet, drifting...will be a difficult measure.
  24. wdrag
    On the HRRR accumulation graphic through 5AM, use the lower end of those value ranges. That's the safest, I should be a rough unsafe travel evening .
  25. wdrag
    Can everyone live with this??? I think it's realistic, with another 1-4" coming I80 LI after 5AM and 3-6" coming after 5A n of I80 in far nw NJ/ne PA and se NYS CT. We'll see if this comes down a bit in future cycles?
