My wife needs surgery next Friday and we have doctor stuff Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday leading up to it so small or nothing is my preference until she's back home and doesn't need to be moved around. See what you can do to make this one go away. Thanx.

how's her ankle?  sorry if i am confusing you for another poster but i thought your wife was the one who slipped down the steps.

biggly yuge flakes in New Brunswick, some of the biggest and greatest flakes, everyone is saying it

33/29

walking through the unusual snow-ice-snow layers outside makes me think i'm walking through a bowl of french onion soup

i really need to lose some weight

freezing rain in Piscataway.

not gonna lie boys, i live for the snow thump.

yes yes we are all super enthusiasts who enjoy 2 inch rainstorms, 24 inch snowstorms, and probably a few of you are legally insane and enjoy those days in the winter where it just blows 40 mph of 0% humidity freezer burn air onto your face the entire day.

but more than anything i love that one hour of atmospheric puke.  is it snow?  here's 3"/hr.  is it lightning?  it's falling all around you for the next 15 minutes.

gimme gimme that sweet convection.

It's screwed up that we have weather models for every major nation.  Science should know no boundaries and we shouldn't have national weather models.  All scientists across the world should be working together to create a universal model not this piecemeal kind of stuff.

the sentiment is right, the reality is difficult.

No one really wants freezing rain. It's such a mess, and we have what looks like days of it coming. I hope to God its sleet at least.

yeah it's kind of neat as a novelty but the weather in front of us could be insane if it's even 50% of worst case.  like i said earlier about borderline temps, we could thread the needle in either direction with these upcoming events.

going to need to rely on observations and nowcasting the next several days to navigate the rapidly changing p-types, borderline temps, and waves of precip.  Monday looks like an opportunity to do stuff, if you want to do stuff.

Tuesday looks bad.

models are shifting the Thursday-Saturday event back northward.  science says eggs are good for you this week.

My lucky snow shovel from childhood broke today. Goodnight, sweet prince.

my shovel also cracked trying to move that stuff.

pretty decent melting happening right now although it's still snowing.

i had no idea mr. wdrag wasn't just a meteorologist but an actual NWS employee.  i am very grateful he continues to grace us with his knowledge and discussion even in retirement.  i would be slightly more grateful if his forecasts for this weekend keep the snow below 6 inches so that i have a chance of finding somewhere to park at my apartment complex before March.

the snowpeople are returning to their natural habitat... nature is starting to heal

You mean learn how to drive in the snow or say home! Roads are fine if you know how to drive and you have a capable vehicle. 

my neighborhood has not learned how to drive

moderate sleet.

the evening air is filled by the sounds of pinging ice and revving car engines.  stop trying to drive please.

the jebwalk was more of a jebdeathmarch

fear that they'll be judged by hotness and not skill.

why choose one or the other when you can have both

we got some clumped flakes like 2"... i thought wind was supposed to help reduce flakes sizes but we got some dinner plates coming down.

this Kia in the parking lot thinks he's gonna drive somewhere.  he ain't going anywhere lol.

if Piscataway isn't meeting blizzard criteria it's damn close.  the spirit is there.  huge flakes too.  real paste job in progress.

CNJ seems way ahead of schedule

some guy with FWD has been spinning his wheels for 20 minutes trying to get off the street.  wasn't expecting that snow depth til morning.

Looks like Mt. Holly believes the bulk of your precip will be in the form of rain.

temps are kinda marginal, but <1"?  guess we'll see.

So Noaa just lowered our totals in Monmouth (Tinton Falls, a few miles from Red Bank) to less than one inch on monday. Everything on here is saying differently, I hate IMBY posts but I will be going to work if it's only going to be an inch of accumulation. Any Ideas ? 

i really don't see what would support an inch of snow or less on monday anywhere in monmouth

Live your best life girl frand.

anyone who doesn't like it can call the ****ing cops

the sauce is on the stove.  the meatballs--60% lamb, 40% beef, pecorino romano--are smelling up my 30 sqft Piscataway closet apartment.  three huge yellow onions, a bulb of garlic, tomato paste and whole peeled tomatoes, oregano, basil, bay leaves.  couple sausages because i'm worth it.  fresh pasta locked and loaded.  rum and coke in the glass.  it's a sin to live this well.
