WintersGrasp Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Accumulating close to 1/2"/hour. Actually have not had any heavy snow at all, barely moderate snow so far....just not able to build into NE NJ yet....focused on CNJ through southern parts of NYC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDMK6GLI Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'm close to the 8-10" on HRRR, I don't think the radar echoes have to be as heavy when the ratios go up to get good snowfall rates. typically no they don't but it does help, although this storm should still produce some good banding overnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjay Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 according to my Radarscope the snow seems to be In a lull around LI, im assuming that was forecasted? Im not in a lull right now in Merrick. Snow has maybe dropped off a hair but will pick back up shortly. Winds are getting really gusty at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Reason HRRR is showing a max over Philly is because of the inverted trough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick5892 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 2.75 " in hackettstown, nj with mod snow continuing. Currently 11F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstorm93 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 You guys should really lay off the HRRR for a while, but those snowfall totals are only 10:1 14 degrees here with mod snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 who knows if the browns streak up to S LI....all those white dots block out the NYC area We have a long ways to go. The snow over central PA is most likely associated with the trough itself and that will consolidate into the main snow area and will likely be the impetus for snow that hangs back tomorrow morning. The snow area should also pivot into a more classic looking CCB instead of the sheared look it has now. We're really not out of it until the vort max clears SE of us, which won't be until about dawn. Snow at this intensity for about another 7-9 hours could make for some hefty totals (it's light now, pushing moderate at times. Winds are picking up and drifting the snow. Estimating about 3" now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwcMan Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Low 20's and light to moderate snow falling. Around 2 inches here so far. Question..places like Atlantic city are reporting rain currently when no rain looked to be in their forecast. Is that due to a closer to the coast/stronger low pressure system?

mikemost Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Took these around 8:15pm... Been stuck in what appears to be a subsidence zone for a period now. I'm not overly optimistic that any heavy banding makes it this far north, but let's see what happens when the coastal ramps up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WintersGrasp Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Just measured...about 0.75" north of EWR....this is after about 3 hours snow. We'll need it to really pick up to get totals of 8" or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Snow picking up again. Loving seeing some good results from all these days of tracking and nailbiting over model runs, and throwing back some cold ones (also going out for a walk in the elements).

Snowshack Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Good forecast by Upton so far, but not sure why they have temps for my area holding around 26F ...already down to 22F and should fall through the teens overnight Tonight Snow with widespread blowing snow. Steady temperature around 26. Windy, with a north wind 17 to 26 mph, with gusts as high as 38 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total nighttime snow accumulation of 4 to 8 inches possible.

For those of us who grew up in the 80's, it would've been cool to have access to forums and weather info like there is now thanks to the internet and improved technology....although other than 83, there wasn't much to celebrate snow wise in that decade...

I really didn't have Internet access in the 90s either; although, that decade sucked other than '93-94 and '95-96. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
