wdrag Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 Thanks for that ob. We're (Highland Lakes, southern Wantage Township) on the margin of rain/vs ice. Will be interested in obs ne PA Monroe-Pike counties elevations then northward from there and High Point NJ into southern NYS higher terrain. Thanks again. Our temp here up 1.3F in the past hour, so am not expecting icing here at 740'MSL for quite awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 Following photos from High Point State Park in the northwest tip of NJ with temp 34 (melting)...The Monument at the ~1025AM photos was about 31F. Roads were just wet. This is at least 0.1" glaze on everything, not paved. The L and R photos are at the closed entry to the park, and the center photos is about 100 feet below the entrance. Ice ended at about 47.5 SR23 marker. Suspect remaining Sunday morning ice accumulation problems, if any, are above 1700 feet near the edge of Sussex County NJ, at 1030A. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent photos and detailed obs, Walt. I'm sure your efforts in this thread and elsewhere will help jump-start a trend of more thorough current-condition reporting on the forum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 Noticing temps trying to drop in the banding developing beneath a comma head. Could be some interesting ptype changes in pockets of elevation above 700 feet this evening in nw NJ elevations. Lets see if Vernon the first with wet flake mix does change to all wet snow or revert to all rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdrag Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 Wantage NJ 4 sw... few very wet flakes embedded in light-mdt rain since ~412PM. won't post again until we notice a substantial type change here, if that occurs.
