NsWx516 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 This definitely has Boxing Day vibes to it. Everyone was ready to throw in the towel and the GFS was on its own island. This is pretty much the inverse 2015 storm. Side note, I went and filled up my tank just before and the gas station was empty, I might head to the store to get the milks and breads. I dont think mass panic has set in yet lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathstar9 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 24 minutes ago, SnowGoose69 said: I was half joking when I said the GFS was due to score one of these hits, looks like it finally did but to a degree it was right for the wrong reason. This is a rare period historically to see big snow events here and you can see that on the daily snow records on 2/22 and 2/23, mostly all 6 inches or lower. It’s strange Feb 20-28/29 is weak for big storms even compared to March 1-20. Only one I can think of was the 2010 storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha Only need gusts to at least 35 for 3 consecutive hours. There's a visibility parameter as well. That's why there can be blizzard conditions without a cloud in the sky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdj5211 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Highest recorded snowfall by me in Montville, NJ (Morris County, NJ) was about 27 inches in the March 2018 storm. Would love to experience that again. And a fun fact…there has never been 30 inches of snow ever officially recorded in NJ. 29.7 is the record in 1947. Do you think we will ever see 30+ inches, especially with today’s seemingly deeper strengthening storms? . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think probably the most recent was January 2016. Had 31" in southeast Morris County. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
