Wow absolutely nothing here

 

I lost alot of sleep this week tracking this.

Sleep is very important for health. I can understand losing sleep during the rare occasions when we're looking at a major snowstorm, but it's not worth it losing sleep over a potential snow event that would be minor at best. I hope you can stop doing this, for your health's sake.

Interesting at 7:30PM the NEXRAD radar was showing the precipitation shield "leap-frog" northeast NJ about 50-100 miles northeast.  This would seem that there was an energy transfer just as the storm approached our area?  Quite a tease, as we watched the precipitation move in a uniform manner from West Virginia, and then all of a sudden, skipped over our area.  Then again, precipitation doesn't actually act (or move) as a vehicle driving along a highway.  Rather, the low pressure system is continually propagating itself, as if the low pressure system is actually continually building the road out ahead of the vehicle.
