What will make this storm last until Monday afternoon? some of us are confused that you have a red tag identifying you as a meteorologist....this would indicate at least a BA. i understand you don't learn everything in school, and maybe you specialized in tornados for all i know.....otherwise i don't find you offensive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eduggs Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Central Morris County: 2.75" OTG. 30.5F. 1.25" in the past hour. I just went for a long snow walk. It's a glorious evening and blissfully quiet. Most people are inside their cozy homes avoiding the snow. They don't know what they're missing. I've intentionally avoided looking at models for the past day to try to enjoy this snow event as it comes. It's definitely not snowing gangbusters at the moment and so far the event isn't giving off the characteristic feel of an historical event. Hopefully that changes later tonight. Even this solid but unspectacular rate should be good enough to achieve double digits. I'm hoping the good banding doesn't shift too far east. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dseagull Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 6 minutes ago, Blizzard-on-GFS said: 18.5" MAX over my house in Manahawkin, NJ. HRRR prints out another 20" here in south jersey. I only have 2" so far so I hope I cash in when these bands start pivoting. Struggling to keep anything more than thst up here in Waretown and Forked River, as well. We will hopefully see a long duration high dbz band pivot near (or over us) overnight, but Im simply not seeing enough observational temp crash to help us catch up to projected totals. For me, snow totals mean far less than the overall coastal impacts... but I like to call things as I see them. I would consider double digits a win, at this juncture. Hope we both get to experience some true blizzard conditions, regardless of overall snowfall accumulation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we both get to experience some true blizzard conditions, regardless of overall snowfall accumulation. Yeah I WAS skeptical, but after looking over all the 0z model runs. Seems like tight consensus for another 18-22" for us. So when this thing gets cranking and pivoting, things might change quick. Dew point is currently at 31 so as soon as this next band rolls through I think we start cooking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwarlock Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Just about 3 in belle mead, only 2.5 inches on pavement..been rather meh but intensity starting to pick up a bit I think some of us have been in some of the subsidence for a bit and that line from my area with about 3 although its snowing moderately now it seems like everytime a band tries to approach my area it disspates and hits a brickwall only to see another grow to south and do the same thingthe heavy bands are supposed to pivot up through ny and down through pa and central jersey as the low deepens and sits and spins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WXNewton Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 00z HRRR has about 1" of precip falling between 3am-8am. Should be heaviest rates during those hours. I would expect 9" -10" piling up during that 5 hr stretch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jt17 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Kuchera has 15 for NYC and near 30 for eastern LI.The people don't understand it doesn't include what has fallen. Plus HRRR is 20 more for nyc.
