Picked up 2.0” total here in the Sourlands. Changed over to sleet around 4PM, then later to sleet/rain. The rain mix did rapidly change back over to snow a little before 5:30PM- which dropped a quick 1/2”+ accumulating on the roads again. Still a good covering out there now, as the rain later this evening didn’t do much. High was 34.4 just before midnight, and a low of 19.0.

Had a low of 13.7, with dense freezing fog this morning. It must not have been around long, because there was no accrual in the trees, unlike an event last week. The fog has since cleared out now, and 38.1 degrees. Some stats to round out January in the Sourlands: Mean Max: 36.8 Mean Min: 16.7 Mean temp: 27.1 Highest temp: 59.0 on 1/2 Lowest temp: 1.0 on 1/31 7 Days with a high below 32 (Lowest high 21.2) 28 Days with a low below 32 (10 in 0s) (8 in 10s) (10 in 20s) One day with a low of 32.1 There were several days where the high/low just missed criteria. Snowfall: 14.9"

Hit 1.0 degrees this morning, after clouds cleared some around 2AM. This beat the seasonal record of 1.5 set the morning before. Without the clouds I would have gone well below zero. I did see the Watershed in Hopewell hit -2.

It was interesting to see just how fast the snow dropped off north of here. Just a couple miles north it’s noticeable. By the time you’re just above Flemington on the plateau it’s common to see grass poking up, though there is a lot of drifting. Took a measurement in Frenchtown and only had 2.2”.

Hit a low of 1.5 overnight, which is the new seasonal low. Had 7.1” of accumulation yesterday, along with 1.0” from the pre-event. Total was 8.1”.

Made it to 1.0" here, trees covered nicely, sheltered driveway surfaces are covered. But there has been patchy melting with large areas near the ground now bare again. 32.6 degrees now which is the high.

Just measured 0.5" here in the Sourlands, it's been snowing lightly since this early morning. Temp is up to 30.0 after a low of 24.6.

Up to 33.6, just plain rain now. Snow is becoming a slushy mess now.

Changed from snow to IP/SN around 9PM and now a ZR mix. Temp up to 32 after a low of 2.1 this morning. Ended up with 1.4”. Made a large pile that should hopefully survive the coming rainstorm .

Hit 8.6 overnight, which was shortly after midnight. I was hoping to beat last years low of 7.6, but thanks to a slight breeze that developed my temperature shot up and remained in the low-mid teens the rest of the night. Shortly before midnight I did hit 8.5, which is now the seasonal/yearly low. Snowcover is thin, but patchy. Not far south of here there is nothing left.

Largest piles still about 2-3' deep, and I even have some very resilient snow patches still hanging on. High yesterday made it to 72.7, with a low this morning of 52.3. Todays high was 67.4.

Crossed 70 here, still some large snow patches but the overnight fog did a number on it before the warmth even arrived. Largest snow pile still about 4’ high. Overnight low was 36.9.

55.6 at 11:50AM after a low of 27.2 this morning. Yesterday high of 62.6 was the warmest since Nov 30th (65.4), and we're already on track to set a new record today. Still large patches of snowcover hanging on, but definitely getting hit hard. My largest piles are still about 4' deep, with actual snowcover a few icy inches. Yesterday finally saw the last of my driveway (asphalt) snowcover melt, but a neighbor still has a fair amount on theirs. There are spots only a few miles away where there's nothing though.

The NASA Worldview Snapshot (NOAA-20 VIIRS) shows the snow-line well from today (3/3)

Getting thinner, but overall still solid. Temp 29.6 now, high yesterday was 50.2, low 21.1.
