  1. Just last evening, this had nothing burger potential written on it, especially up your way.
  2. 8" here. Nice little bump back north with heavier snows. It's been real to watch my forecast go from 12+, down to 6, and back to 12+ within about 18 hours.
  3. School is called off for tomorrow. I think they should've gone with a delay to start, and cancelled in the morning if it all panned out, but I'll take it as a mental health day.
  4. They're still hanging on to the higher amounts up here. Interesting.
  5. TWC just showed 8-13" in both the warning statement and total accumulated snow which is bat$hiT for up this way given current trends. I'm with you. 3-4" is looking more likely now. It could change again, but the trend is not our friend.
  6. I get a little worried for up here. Another 50 mile nudge south, and we're 2-4" as opposed to jackpot. And with marginal temps. As I read comments, the storm is nudging south. Hopefully not far enough to cut back our amounts. We'll see.
  7. Between too many kids on "smart" phones, and an out of touch, ill informed, top down bureaucracy, public education is getting to the point of being trashed beyond any salvation. Give the kids the day off if the weather warrants and enjoy it! Speaking of, I'm getting a little worried about the southerly trends. Much more, and I go from the bullseye to the screw zone. Those cutoffs are pretty sharp once you head into the Poconos and the upstate of NY.
  8. Damn, I'm looking at a potential foot+ up here if the best of these scenarios plays out.
  9. February could end up well below normal precipitation, which isn't necessarily a bad thing coming off of a saturated December and early January. Still, I'm always careful what I wish for since it's seems either feast or famine with precipitation anymore. Remember how dry last spring was, burned up lawns by June, and the wildfire smoke, and then the faucet opened up in July.
  10. Feb 4th - I've got my first of the spring bulbs popping up already. Our garden out front gets full sun this time of year, and with the lack of snow cover and milder temps, well, let it begin, albeit way too early.
  11. We got about 1.15". News 12 showed a segment claiming our area got 3.9" of rainfall per radar estimates, which was wildly inaccurate. On top of a 1" snowfall forecast which we didn't see a flake of either.
  12. Anyone been up top of High Point mountain today? There's got to be some noticeable snow/ice accumulations. I don't think it made it above freezing.
  13. The entire color spectrum is represented in the current radar. Temp here is 35.6, with a cold, moderate rain. Elevation 800'
  14. I did a nice hike this afternoon in a not too windy spot, and with a hat, gloves, and warm jacket, was actually quite pleasant out. It's been nice to have snow cover, but not too much so that you can't go out and play (unless you ski or own a snowmobile). Too bad it will be history by the end of the week.
  15. We made it to 1.5" in Sparta. Been pleasantly surprised with a little burst this evening - even though there isn't much on radar. I was just out, roads are slick in spots, caution is warranted. In fact, it's still snowing some, and I can see both the moon and Venus breaking through.
  16. I'm at work out in Hampton. I'd say maybe 1/2 inch here. I'll be back home later, but I'm guessing not much difference.
  17. This thing is sucking wind up here. It almost seems like the sun is trying to break through at times. At least what little we have is sticking on all untreated surfaces because of the cold temps out here.
  18. Light snow here on campus. New dusting on everything, spotty on sidewalks and pavement. Wonder if the super is thinking early dismissal or just keeping us here. My guess is we stay. Some kids are pissed they didn't get the day off again, but that's life.
  19. No call made yet on our campus here in Sussex County. Which I think is a good thing given that we may not get much at all. We'll see.
  20. Most of us in the education world are wondering about schools tomorrow. Tough call. Sometimes these small events can be as bad for driving as the big boys.
  21. Great radiational cooling last night. I got down to 4 up here. Most of Sussex County was down into the single digits.
  22. 23F and back to snow in sparta. I'm right on the snow/sleet line as per the radar, and that seems to be accurate based on real time conditions here.
