Yup. People didn’t believe me 

That band is narrow, but moving slowly east.  If it stalls someone just to the east will get clobbered.  Snow is much lighter here now.  22/19

Moderate snow in North Caldwell ~520 elevation.  

Heavy dbz moving east from Morris County to my area then to NYC

The sleet line should wash out a bit if the heavy rates can persist for a while. Otherwise those getting sleet and not expecting it-that’s the problem with these systems that don’t come in with persistent heavy rates and these subsidence holes. 

[forkyfork]

loud heavy sleet

[SACRUS]

 

60% sleet   - 40% something else

yeah you called it. i'm not expecting much to talk about in my neck of the woods. any time i hear about warm noses, waa etc it almost never works out for my area. hopefully we get some better rates but i'm not putting money on it. 

[rickymortyx]

heavy sleet continues. sharp cut off in NJ will be correct.

[hooralph]

It started snowing in Ernest about 20 minutes ago on the upper west side. Now sleet is already mixing in.

[forkyfork]

[BoulderWX]

All sleet and freezing rain in Morristown.

29/25 right now 

The put a lot of salt down but this is more treacherous than snow atm  

 

 

[WestBabylonWeather]

Not everyday we get this weird setup 

[SnowGoose69]

Given the radar over NYC and NE NJ I’m surprised most stations aren’t reporting anything

This is why people shouldn't ignore the NAM with mid-level warmth.  With that said, let's see how it plays out.

Cooked? It’s weather lol…

These patches of yellow on the sleet line line up with the swiss cheese subsidence holes and push back a little when the precip increases. But not what I was hoping to see in the radar presentation for holding the sleet back. Last Feb's SWFE was way more organized with the precip so the sleet was slower to advance. Hopefully it doesn't advance too far into the city and it gets its act together for everyone. But those places by I-287 are probably done for much more snow. 

[binbisso]

After a lull back to moderate snow about .5" from the first batch. No sleet yet

[SomeguyfromTakomaPark]

Much bigger flake size with this second band, hopefully it accumulates as efficiently as the first. Yorktown, NY

[Rjay]

24 degrees.  Heavy snow has turned into light snow.

[CPcantmeasuresnow]

2.7 inches as of 630. Didn't really start going here till after 4:30 although the rate has lessened quite a bit now 18° moderate snow.

What's your temp?

[Volcanic Winter]

This is a glaze of ice down here, be careful if you’re getting a mix right now. I think every location is getting a slightly different thing due to setup / temps / mid levels but this is literal ice sheet atm here.
