IsentropicLift Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 At 1:16 pm, NWS-Philly just reiterated the WWAdvisory for most of Central/North Jersey. Very surprised given trends so far. Nothing on the ground in northern Middlesex County and it's light rain 9 miles north of there in Rahway, where they've discontinued the WWA. Maybe I'm just missing something.

Absolute Humidity Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 No, the precip in the morning was heaviest just to the south, i seen someone in jackson report about 2"..We are getting close to 3/4" but snow has really picked up.. I will add that i woke up late this morning, so some melting could of occurred.. http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?product=N0R&rid=dix&loop=yes The webcam at about 9:30 - 10am looked awesome with slushy coating on Rt 9 & south street. looked like an inch easily on the poles and grassy's.

SnoSki14 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 It's still amazing to me how compact the precip shield is, it looks like a tropical system with the convection right around the center. In most cases, the heaviest precip would be much further spread out with a low that close, the power and annoyance of confluence. Again a testament to the block that we can't get the storm to move further north in late March. I only hope we don't get a huge blocking pattern during hurricane season or we would be in a world of trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 They had 0.8" back home in Ewing, but its quickly melting now. I will now declare the EC as the winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only hope we don't get a huge blocking pattern during hurricane season or we would be in a world of trouble. Sandy occurred due to a block over Greenland, which backed the jet stream and flow to be directly into the Northeast. A major piece of mid-latitude energy phased into Sandy and made it into the catastrophic storm it became. Blocking patterns are very rare though in the summer, since the overall jet stream is much further north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbc Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Nothing here.. stupid confluence Nothing here either a bit farther due south of you in the Harborside section of Jersey City outside my office. It looks like our little cozy backyard of Cliffside Park will be completely shafted. Being that far north in Jersey like 2/6/10 (experienced that) and 4/10/1996 (did not experience this as I was living in SE Monmouth and was bullseyed at the time) some time bites you in the behind. It pays off more than it hurts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace0927 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 this winter will end as it has gone for the most part for my area...as a big C.T. Winter rating C- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingwill42 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 a Boatload of nothing going on here in Somerset County right now after a couple of hrs of non sticking snow. Where is my 2-4 inches I am under an advisory for at ? Anyway yesterday pretty much dismissed this storm so not sweating it but all the little nuisance storms plus a 7(Blizzard) and 5 inches(Norlun Band) were the tops in this area. A bunch of 1 inchers doesn't make a winter for me memorable so I will rate this season a C-... Too many close misses on something bigger like today deducts from overall score.

jm1220 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Radar looks to be having a really tough time getting echos north of I-195. Maybe a few more miles north to cover more of Monmouth and perhaps clip Suffolk County on its way out should be about it. The area around the city will likely end up with a trace or coating at best.

L.I.Pete Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Light rain in Upton. 39.4° Wondering if those bands to the southeast over the ocean will get in here later, and if they'll be wet or white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravensrule Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 They had 0.8" back home in Ewing, but its quickly melting now. I will now declare the EC as the winner. Down here the Euro was wrong, had me at about .50 and I already have almost .70 with more to come later on with the ULL. GFS is the clear winner here.

Wxnyc Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 It would seem that precip is backing in nwward from the ocean, does anybody think we still have a small chance of some steady snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Troll It's hard to be a troll when you have 11" on the season and this storm more than doubled my season to date snowfall. I wish I had NY's total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Still rain here. These bands aren't even worth it. The lull early in the day allowed for temps to warm up, and this is hardly the dynamic cooling we would need to make it snow again. Here in Midtown it's rain too with sme flakes mixed in. I'm not optimistic any of us end up with accumulations from I-78 north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
