Praying for the most vulnerable there. They really got the worst. Grateful my area in Dutchess escaped the worst by an icy hair. Yea Ulster and Orange are the worst places to be in these scenarios but nice places to be when it's snow vs rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Just based on the radar and current temps it looks like northern westchester and points north are going to be really a mess soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah just doing the radar extrapolation it looks like a good bit of precip still to come from the southwest and temps already down to around 25/26 in Yorktown.

NJwx85 Posted February 4, 2022 Author Share Posted February 4, 2022 Decent low and mid level frontogenesis aided by the weak low off the NJ coast is causing the precip over Southern and Eastern PA and Central NJ to fill in. Could be a really messy evening commute ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jims Videos Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Quite a bit of precipitation still to move through New Jersey where temperatures are cooling right now. Becoming a bit more concerned about areas in North Jersey. Luckily the cold air was slow to arrive or else it would have been a much different situation like they're seeing up in Ulster.

wthrmn654 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/... -- Changed Discussion -- At or below freezing temperatures have worked down into the NYC metro and as far east as interior SW CT. Due to the shallow nature of the cold air, it has struggled to get across the hills of western CT. The Hudson River Valley has made it easier for a more southward progression initially. As the colder air gradually deepens, it will continue to expand south and east across CT and LI. Winter weather advisories remain in effect until 7 pm for all but SE CT and eastern LI, where it is in effect until 10 pm. Far eastern areas will likely not see freezing rain until around 00Z (give or take an hour). An additional tenth to quarter inch liquid equivalent is possible before the event comes to an end for far eastern areas late this evening. This will result in up to an additional tenth of an inch of ice across interior sections of CT, with a light glaze down at the coast. Upper portions of the Lower Hudson Valley will likely go over to all sleet with little additional ice accretion. Some areas have seen close to half an inch, with some reports even higher up above 500ft. High pressure over the Midwest will then build slowly east overnight, while the departing frontal system works across the western Atlantic. Much of the night will remain overcast with strong cold advection on N-NW winds at 10 to 15 mph. Lows by daybreak will range form the lower to mid teens well inland, to the lower 20s at the coast. This is a few degrees below normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
