Correct   2mi from the Appalachians Trail.  Beautiful here... but when power goes out, and trees need to be cleared.... its a problem. Last March it didn't get below 31F in those multi day outages, so homes could maintain enough heat to prevent pipes bursting.  Tonight, if power is out and there is no safe heating of the home, especially windward walls...there will be major consequences.  I'm pretty sure it will get down to -1F at our home in Wantage at sunrise Monday, with wind chill 20-30below.  NYC in a way lucky no snow cover.  btw, I think 1/21 will be coldest mean temperature here in nw Nj and ne PA since Feb 13, 2016 Later, Walt

All that. And the marauding deer, plus the bears. My son tells me rutgers is studying bobcats up there. Had no idea we had bobcats in NJ.

Just reading the discussion out of the NWS in Maine and they would agree. No models really reliable.


Update...For starters the only model performing even close to
observed 2 m temps is the HRRR...so any adjustments were just
about solely HRRR based. Largest pressure falls are occurring
over the elbow of the Cape. With low pressure trying to squeeze
in that direction now...cold temps will lock in place. I do not
expect anyone to rise above freezing today...which at least
eliminates one ptype.

Won't need to worry about hear attacks or shoulder issues down here. I'd worry more about driving into standing water...

4.5 inches of iceberg here.

28.9  with precip just ended. Trees ice covered, snowblower broke and I'm not shoveling this. Anyone know any plow guys in Highland Mills/Central Valley area?

You should post in the canadian forum. Thats where those temps were found, you must be lying.

? It's true. Could've easily had major widespread issues. Haven't really seen anyone here report more than .3" of accretion. With the amount of precip by in large most people got lucky.

 

 

Hes already posted about numerous trees down, power outages, and other weather related issues. You literally replied to him with “disaster averted”. Its the exact opposite of “true”.
