What a radar image - would have been interesting to see the 1895 storm satellite and radar and how it compared to this. The visible satellite tomorrow will be very memorable with the snow covered Gulf states.

19 / 7 with 3.2 inches of snow and off a low of 14. Cold work week, coldest readings of the season and cold departures - records look safe. Looks dry with suppressed look and overall cold through Friday. Slight moderation (26th, 29/30) with cold nearby otherwise through the end of the month. Perhaps moderation to a more sustained warmup post Groundhogs day.

about 3 / 3.5 here 27 / 27

One of the heaviest since the Valentines day 1895

32/30 snow.sleet mix now

33/31 mix of snow, and some rain 90/10 and picking up - should goto all snow soon (here CNJ)

Down to 38 here from 41

39 / 30 here 11 EWR: 40 NYC: 39 LGA: 40 JFK: 42 New brnsck: 39 TTN: 35

Sure does with a 1994-ish kind of look, can see this late Jan into early Feb evolving pre any more sustained warmup

Cold air on the march and advance south / south east as the gulf states await the snow and ice and frigid temps and we await the quick change to snow.

Daylight: 9:H:42M:33S Gain of 27 minutes Sunset nearing 1700 (Jan 21 sets at 5PM) for the first time since Nov 2nd (DST) Roughly equivalent to Nov 22nd
