jm1220 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I think that I am going to frame this. Very likely not something we'll see again for many years. The SW Nassau snowhole has just gotten raped up the arse. Unbelievable. How long can we sustain snow rates like this? And it looks to be pivoting and developing overhead and not heading out.

LONG BEACH ISLAND...WHARTON STATE FOREST...NORRISTOWN... DOYLESTOWN...MEDIA...PHILADELPHIA 1234 AM EST THU JAN 27 2011 ...AN AREA OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW CONTINUES TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT THE REGION... AT 1230 AM, NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR ALONG WITH SURFACE REPORTS CONTINUES TO TRACK AN AREA OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW FROM FAR EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA EASTWARD TO MOST OF NEW JERSEY. THIS AREA CONTINUES TO GRADUALLY SHIFT EASTWARD, HOWEVER THERE HAS BEEN SOME REDEVELOPMENT TO THE WEST FROM WARREN COUNTY IN NEW JERSEY TO NEAR PHILADELPHIA. THE SNOWFALL RATES WITHIN THIS AREA ARE MOSTLY BETWEEN 1 TO 2 INCHES PER HOUR. SNOWFALL RATES MAY REACH 3 INCHES PER HOUR ESPECIALLY ACROSS OCEAN, MONMOUTH AND MIDDLESEX COUNTIES. THESE RATES WILL SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE VISIBILITIES TO ONE HALF OF A MILE OR LESS. IN ADDITION, THESE ENHANCED SNOWFALL RATES WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR PLOWING CREWS AS ACCUMULATIONS ARE VERY QUICK. NORTHERLY WINDS 15 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS TO UP 30 MPH WILL CAUSE SOME BLOWING SNOW ESPECIALLY ACROSS OPEN AREAS. ROADWAYS CONTINUE TO BE VERY HAZARDOUS ACROSS THE AREA. THE ENHANCED BAND OF HEAVIER SNOW WILL GRADUALLY PIVOT FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. IT IS BEST TO STAY INDOORS AND NOT TO TRAVEL UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.

EWR might have their second 20 incher of the season lol. Alex, I am just NW of EWR by 5 miles and I can confirm that its snowing like maddness.

NJDC Wx Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 This absolutely unreal, snow is already halfway upthe wheel base of my truck and above the base of the doors, that's insane, it's like 10- 12" in 3.5 hrs. Ridiculous and awesome. Imagine if we had just some blocking? Talking coastal BECS . Amazing. Sad I am missing out though. Did you see any thunder/lightning at all? I was in Marlboro for this December and seems like ratios are outpacing that. An incredible snow thump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace0927 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I just made a cross county and cross coast trek from Valley Stream to Huntington. The differences in dendrites, winds and visibility were pretty remarkable. Driving up 135 it got worse and worse the further north I headed. Definitely had some 25-30 MPH gusts tucked in there too. Northern State was a mess, but I got smacked with very heavy snow and sub 1/8 mile visibilities the minute I got into Huntington. It's a much finer, drier snow on the north shore, but the rates were significantly higher as I got further north. Another crazy experience to tell my kids about someday. its pretty insane on the south shore as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 This was shot around 10:45 this evening right as the sleet turned to snow and all hell broke loose in Kings Park on the North shore of Suffolk County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaner587 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Oh they'll blow right past 50... somebody wake the zookeeper! lets just assume they get between the last 2 hourly obs of 0.24 and 0.35 with around 0.3 in an hr....that makes 0.91 in 3hrs and they therefore have likely already hit the 50in mark...

Bobby Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Looking at the loop this thing looks to be slowing slightly and really winding up.

EWR might have their second 20 incher of the season lol. had we not had that 6 hour lull today and the 2 hrs of sleet, thsi storm would have surpassed dec 26th....the rates are FOR SURE greater for this area than that storm...what that storm had was colder temps and wind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
