This was around 12:40am National Park NJ, across from PHL Alright….took some measurements (misplaced my ruler had to use a tape measure) Walked down to a little used ball field located on Hessian Ave just outside Red Bank Battlefield county park (no not the Monmouth County battle) Field is large and partially shielded by home plate fencing on one end and a stand of trees on the other…. Walked out past what I estimated to be the infield and took eleven measurements around an approximately 30 foot box I walked. One on each corner, one on each side and two in the middle ish. Came up with an average depth of 10.7 inches. I drive past it every day and can confirm it was snow free at the start of the storm.

4pm National Park NJ Across from Philadelphia International Airport Steady light to moderate snow 33f Wind picking up from the Northeast Note: Moved our cars, went inside, back out because I forgot to raise the windshield wipers, and in that one minute windshields were completely covered again

3pm National Park NJ, across from Philadelphia International Airport First mangled snowflakes mixing in with rain. Temperature: 36f

My aura when waiting for rain to change to snow

National Park NJ, across the river from PHL 6:30 am Light rain/drizzle 36f

If you view the Euro as being somewhat of an outlier, and GFS/NAM as being steroid outliers and weave in the other guidance, it’s a pretty reasonable forecast.

Never really liked it or didn’t like it as much as the GFS?

Seems like ages since I got to see a solid warning criteria snowfall mostly falling in daylight, but here it comes. Intensity picking up in National Park NJ, looks like we are past an inch now.

6am National Park NJ Light and steady snow 3/4” accumulation Wind starting to pick up from the east northeast Temperature 14f

Meh…what time had sleet been predicted to enter the chat?

It’s pixie dust to start, but it’s dusting up cars and railings instantly and if you have a lighted and somewhat distant point of reference you can see the air is thick with it.

3:03 am National Park NJ Flurries/first flakes Temperature 16f

Yes….newest one mentioned nudging amounts up slightly

That’s what she said. Hope you see many more, would bode well for me in South Jersey near Philly.

Sorry if I’m missing it, what discussion is this from?

I could swear this week has already been a month.

Yeah the precip field compressed.

National Park NJ 4:08 am First inch of snow of the 2025-26 season 32 degrees with moderate snow

I’m always skeptical when there is a modeled snow gap in South Central PA with these clippers, but maybe this is one time it works out for the Delaware Valley

Tucked with mixing/rain/dry slot?

A “benchmark” without blocking can be meh. A perfect track ain’t gonna crack double digits accumulations in an exceptionally progressive flow.

Drive from Millburn (28f around 10pm) to National Park NJ….encountered rain and sleet in Burlington county, temperature was initially 34 when I hit precip, 10 miles further south temperature dropped to 31/30….light glaze on vehicles, trash cans and parking spot stanchion at my nearest WaWa. Nothing falling as of 12:10 am.

Finally saw some faint ribbons as I still head north nearer Plattsburgh….nothing spectacular but I can say I seen em for the first time in my life. Hope to see more later when we stop.
