Ralph Wiggum Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Ah okay thanks no....it means likely a prolonged icing event since we are 'wasting' precip on ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowwors2 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Not good at all Yes a bit confused as National Weather Service updated snow/ice maps just increased BOTH the snow amounts and significantly increased the ice amounts across most areas!!

RU848789 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Edison could get a coating to an inch or so. Trenton area looks like mainly sleet/freezing rain at this point. Thanks. Such a challenging forecast with well respected folks like Nick Gregory calling for more snow, now (3-5" in NYC metro), followed by a potentially devastating ice storm (over 0.5" ZR) - and he's not a hypester at all. And he had the Edison area on the edge of his 3-5" swath, if I recall correctly, whereas the NWS-Philly agrees with you on an inch or so of snow, then ZR, then rain. Interesting that we're still seeing the large discontinuity in snowfall amounts between the NYC and Philly offices (e.g., 2-4" snow in SI vs. <1" snow in bordering northern Middlesex). I guess we're at nowcasting time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 If that stuff near Harrisburg ends up being mostly snow and sleet for the Lehigh Valley, I think we're safe from that "crippling" ice storm some people have been talking about.
