great work as always...I'm shocked how low the totals are in NW Jersey...what's that to normal?...

 

Yeah it was odd... maybe big differences due to marginal events and elevation, the stations SE of there are actually higher, and I have no data for Kittattinny Ridge itself, so take the far NW portion of NJ against the Delaware River with a grain (or pound) of salt.

Hey Ray, great map, as always.  Much appreciated!

 

Been admiring the little bump in W. Monmouth.  About 10" more than farther west.

 Wondering if that is caused by one storm, or is it smoothed out thru the season.

 Anyone know why?

 

Thanks -  

Those totals were from Absolute Humidity and Isotherm.  A good portion was the big November storm, I think, but there were others.

Nov 7th - 13" (More tree damage than from Sandy). We also did quite well in the Feb blizzard - 8" - 12" and had an excellent March - 9".

Yep. The Feb storm was a nice one for most of Monmouth as well. And the March storm liked interior sections of the county too.

Is that 8.8 in Bergen Teterboro? Whoever submitted that is way off. The 15.0 just northeast of there is way more accurate for that region of Bergen. I measured properly in my area (just south of that 15 reading) and came up with 14 inches.

 

Regardless great work as always and let us know when it all gets posted up on your winter storm archive website. I love that site, I visit it a lot lol.

The 8.8" appears to be a CoCoRaHS report from Palisades Park.

 

Don't like the totals?  Join CoCoRaHS and report yours! ;)

Lol not a bad idea if that reporter is going to be that inaccurate. Whoever did it for Palisades Park for that storm was way the heck off lol.

 

Those are from the Office of the New Jersey State Climatologist website...

Yeah as Ray said those maps are from the NJ state climatologist, Dave Robinson, but thank you for the compliment anyway. :) I don't do individual events but I have the seasonal map for 2012-13 up.
