Parsley Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Currently from my offices homepage, just click on the advertised link above the map which takes you to the briefing page. Then, click on "Graphical Event Display" link above the maps. Gotcha, took me a bit, but I found it. Very nice display to browse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGorse Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 That is a great feature! But there is a "void" in N. Berks Kutztown 0.2 inches. I added your report to the database. Thanks! The graphical image on the above link updates from the PNS's that are issued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I was at the airport 10:30-11:00, then I took the train through Center City up to Cornwells Heights. Nearly whiteout conditions as we landed. Eastwick SEPTA station had about 3" of snow on the platform at 11:20pm, eyeballing it through the window of the train. By the time I got off at Cornwells at 12:20am, only 3/4" on the ground. I believe the 6.0" report. It has been tough to beat the airport the last couple of years.Both the region and the airport have had a good stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Road Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I love that Gloucester County report by the airport. Who would've thought there's a town in New Jersey called VERGA, and that it's not just another name for Trenton... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noreaster07 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 That is a great feature! But there is a "void" in N. Berks Kutztown 0.2 inches. wow thats a pretty big difference between our locations (heck of a gradient), I'm in north Reading (muhlenberg twp) (right across from the airport) and we had 2.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattinpa Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Seems to be no more than 3 inches here.. but I'll take it given what we've had in Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rib Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Yeah, the sun angle is making a difference. In the sunny areas the snow is down to patches while in the shady areas there are still 3-4 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rib Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Done. Thanks for the report. It would be nice to get more reports from Philadelphia County. I don't really measure, but it seems we got between 3 and 4 inches although it could have been more because I didn't wake up until there had been some compaction.

RU848789 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I am not sure if everyone is aware of this experimental product, but this is a region event display. It currently is plotting the snowfall totals. http://www.erh.noaa....ow¢eron=PHI Mike - great feature. If you want some constructive feedback, here are a few suggestions that would make the graphic better from my perspective (not complaining at all, but figured you guys might be interested in a "customer" viewpoint). 1) Would be great to have the county lines on that map, as I find it hard to decipher. 2) Would be nice to have the pop up text include the county name, since I have no clue where half those town names are and I grew up in South Jersey (Wash Twp in Gloucester Co.); the PNS already categorizes them by county, but that info is missing on the graphic. Alternatively, you could label the counties on the graphic, but the graphic is already very busy. 3) This goes to the "busy-ness" of the grapic - would it be possible to delete the little "bubbles" (could just have the numbers on the graphic, but still have them be mouse-able to get the details) or have the bubbles be "transparent" so you can see the geogpraphy behind them? 4) It appears as if there's a color scheme keyed to accumulation amounts, but there's no "key" to what the colors mean; would be good to have on the graphic. 5) Can you add Upton totals to this and have one large graphic (only half kidding - maybe the offices could collaborate on this)? :>) Nice to see my old hometown get 5.5" (Blackwood is the closest one to where I grew up, which technically was the Whitman Square section of Turnersville). We definitely got the short end in most of Central Jersey, only getting 1-2" in most of Monmouth/Middlesex/Somerset/Hunterdon from part 1 (and less in Mercer/Ocean) and getting squadoosh in most of that area (at least north of Princeton to Belmar) in part 2. Not complaining, though, as we have had 60.5" this season at my house, after 59" last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I may not even need to shovel this evening. I'd say 2/3 of the snow is gone here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

famartin Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 just got home from work, melted the core value that i took off my snowboard of the 5.2 inches, came up with .41 qpf The 1.1" of snow back home melted to 0.08" liquid. So the models which were dry were the ones closer to reality, at least around Trenton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jersey just got the shaft (north of the ACY EXP) with this one. Euro was def. too low. GEM was rather close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro was def. too low. GEM was rather close. The last few runs of the NAM, excepting the 0Z run right as the storm was starting, were among the dry models around Trenton (i.e., it caught the gradient well).
