NaoPos Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 How much Qpf has fallen ray? I don't think we've even picked up .25". Everything is soo intermittent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 37.6 in NW Chesco with snow falling but no accumulation so far.....as you can see on webcam as Ray pointed out earlier very strong winds and I see rain on my Sea Isle City webcam at 39.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 How much Qpf has fallen ray? I don't think we've even picked up .25". Everything is soo intermittent Just 0.09" at PHL, though that's from 3:15 PM. Maybe a whole tenth now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easternsnowman Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I don't think any model had that low of a precip. amount for philly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman56 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 .08 so far in NW Chesco. Temp finally dropping slow but steady now, high was 41, now down to 38.6. Steady mix of rain/wet snow now happening. BP 29.83 R DP down to 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I don't think any model had that low of a precip. amount for philly! No, I believe you're correct. SREF's and NAM were by far the worst, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowanBrandon Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 The closest weatherbug station to my house has it down to 35.9 but I'm not sure I buy that. 0.48" of rain so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ_Ken Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 This is a belated report (from about 3 pm), but I was out and about during the tail end of the last heavier band to go through here (at least the radar returns were heavy... the precip itself was not particularly heavy at all) and, as others have reported, there was, indeed, snow and the occasional sleet pellet mixed in with the rain. After finishing my workout (I took a late lunch to go to the gym), the precip was back to a drizzle with nary a flake/pellet in sight. Dare I say that was the last frozen precipitation I will see until next winter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HM Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Mean gridded QPF can be a downright failure on the edge of any storm, esp. one with a sharp deformation zone. Kudos to Ekster for pointing out the potential for the precip shield to be too broad on the NW side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute Humidity Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 No, I believe you're correct. SREF's and NAM were by far the worst, though.

Redmorninglight Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Wet snow and rain mixed and it just got pretty darn dark out. Between 36 and 37F. So far still have power, but winds are howling NE and gusting over 50mph. Still have hours of this to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGorse Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 This was the last hour in Wildwood, NJ. Getting hammered by the winds. Coastal flooding and high winds the main threat.

jerseyjoe00 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Is the storm slowing in it's northern movement? It looks like it is just crawling on radar with that high blocking it's path. The wind has been relentless down here all day. If it slower to exit the wind and waves will continue to rip the beaches apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
