Quakertown needs snow Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 It would be helpful if more reports reached us earlier. We did not have many reports at or above 5 inches. Saw the banding holding across the area and got some reports of 6 inches of snow along with some tree limbs down (renewed power outages), and upgraded to a warning. This is not an easy storm to forecast (still light rain at KPHL!). you are not kidding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Radar doesn't seem to want to let up, a nice surprise here in NE Philly since I thought it was over for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGorse Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I submitted 8" to storm report with limbs downs about twenty minutes ago. That norlun feature is pretty amazing to see on radar. Okay, thanks for the report a short time ago. Pretty sure this is not a norlun event, just strong frontogenetic forcing resulting in banding.

WebBreaker63 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 If not in such dire straights this a beautiful setup for snow -- with that said this SUCKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolute Humidity Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Okay, thanks for the report a short time ago. Pretty sure this is not a norlun event, just strong frontogenetic forcing resulting in banding. Ok thanks. To live under that banding in early November is amazing. 9" now.

Isotherm Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 You're really teasing me over there in NE PHL. I'm here in Bryn Mawr looking at intense banding just east of me. It's been snowing since 1130 this morning here, and I've got some slush on my car to show for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been snowing since 1130 this morning here, and I've got some slush on my car to show for it. It's been rough man I hear you. Snowing all day and we can't even get a coating on anything. I tell you this feels just like that Boxing Day blizzard two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeEater Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Anyone else near the South Jersey shore seeing flashes?? I'm thinking transformers but our lines are underground here You're seeing transformers going, or wires arching. Calls are starting all over SJ now for those issues.

SP Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I think we are going to surpass 8. Trees popping everywhere and power unstable but on. Many without around us. The tree damage is going to be bad. Crazy storm. Thank gosh the high winds never lasted though we do have some drifting from earlier. Amazing two weeks.

Boch23 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 You know all the snow in nj is great but they really didn't need this. I hope this does end up to bad especially near the coast. Anyways coating on cars and grass out in west goshen area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute Humidity Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Seems like you are measuring quite often. Just a little excited, yes. I have pics on iPhone and will upload to flicker when this tapers off. The 8" measurement was an average from several spots so the 9 + at this point is unofficial. There is another member on this board less than 1/2 mile away and he is posting similar results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tell you this feels just like that Boxing Day blizzard two years ago. Yeah, at least it's not on that level for PHL area (missing 1-2ft+ to the east). Luckily for me I was home in Monmouth for boxing day. Last October we jackpotted here as you know with 4"+ so I guess we can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotherm Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 IPad actually. Sorry you guys are lacking snow. Not a big deal - it's been awhile since NJ had a big Nov snow. PA had theirs last October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Not a big deal - it's been awhile since NJ had a big Nov snow. PA had theirs last October. Well, that part of NJ, anyway. West Milford had 19" last October, and a good number of other sites had 10-15" in northwest Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazwoper Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 This band over me is laying down some snow. Best accumulations all day. Still won't amount to much, but it is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebBreaker63 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I am not physically in NJ (Shore) and with the wife's measurement of 6 " (Toms River) a while ago and looking at my good neighbors thread in Monmouth County of 9" and looking at current radar (relentless) - I am expecting about a foot or more of snow when I get back to NJ tomorrow...

I can confirm the 9 and counting....... It's hey too....the roads are a mess between the snow and piles of debris from sandy cleanup. Hope they are careful if an attempt to plow is made. Just heard a big bang.....brb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
