Guest Patrick Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 If the moderators are ok with this, seems like a reasonable idea to have a separate thread for the far N/W NYC burbs...especially for the current storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIN Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 How about nw morris county as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threeyoda Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 How about nw morris county as well? And Western Passaic, we both have very different weather than the immediate NYC metro area. Maybe the mods can rename this "The Northwest New Jersey Thread" if they approve of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Milford Highlander Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Yea Sussex and WM are on almost different climates in storms like these. Western Bergen, nw Morris and warren very similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patrick Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Sorry folks, that makes perfect sense... I was a bit overexcited by the snow absolutely ripping again right now...not one sleet pellet...picked up an inch in just the past half hour.

Animal Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I am actually surprised we went back to snow in Highland Lakes I assume the winds direction may have changed. At this point, my final measure will come after the storm ends. Maybe 2 hours or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patrick Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 same here bud...though looking at the pivot, we may get precip beyond the next 3 hours...

2112wxgrl Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I was worried with the sleet and thought it was a permanent changeover. I was fearing freezing rain to rear it's ugly head. Nope, back to snow. That layer of sleet should make for fun sledding in my yard with the kids tomorrow. PS I think I hear some sleet again when I took a listen out the window.

Guest Patrick Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 same...freezing rain would be a disaster up here right now. not sure about your area, but still lots of trees leaning on wires from sandy.

Animal Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Just took a quick measure. 6.1 inches. Some sleet it mixing back in again. Not much though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many trees hanging precariously throughout the county. We still have to finish clearing trees down on our yard from Sandy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwest NJ Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Still very heavy snow with sleet mixing in and getting windy. Just took a walk and the sleet is stinging and the snow is still very heavy. Down a degree to 26 and it seems like a snow/sleet storm. I would be very happy if we saw no freezing rain or plain rain.

Animal Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 looks like she will be done in an hour or so. Hopefully no trese blow down on my property. Winds likely to pop later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112wxgrl Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Thankfully this wasn't a plastering and accumulating on tree branches type of snow. Some trees could still go with these winds, though. Looks like one last bit of decent precip left for Sussex Cnty. I wonder of the stuff in central Jersey will fill in further west and reach us?

Final up on the ridge line 6.1 inches. I need a pure powder snow storm. I rate this storm s 4/10 on the snow meter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2112wxgrl Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I swear just before it was a combo of sleet and freezing rain here in Wantage. The precip has since let up and I can't tell what it is doing out there now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwest NJ Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Patrick, Thanks for starting a separate thread for our area! Sleet has started ripping again in the last few minutes. Amazing how we have switched back and forth with sleet and snow in our area but haven't had any rain or freezing rain. Leaving for NYC tomorrow about 9:00 AM down route 23 and I hope the drive isn't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I missed out on the fun, but I passed out early last night (I have a 15 month old!). We piled on some more ice and it seems to be still just a tick below freezing with more echoes coming in.

threeyoda Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Got 3 inches here right before it changed to plain rain around 11, so now there's just an inch on the ground. Hoping for a decent storm this weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
