02/18/14 Snow Event OBS, Countdown to further snowfall records.

[green tube]

i'm just getting clipped by the very outer edges of the mega band and it's snowing pretty hard.  i can only imagine what the rates are in ocean county. 

[JERSEYSNOWROB]

Only 1.5 inches up in NW Monmouth County though. Just missing those heavier bands to my south. Still snowing moderately though.

[nyblizz44]

City looks to catch the northern edge of the mega heavy band down south in the next 30 minutes but only or s hort while as band is oriented ENE. after that there is  band in WPA heading west BUT by tha ttime we will have likely torched. NWS reduction in accumilations was spot on : locally we will do 1-2 inches at best IMHO

[Wxnyc]

Intresting how the south shore warmed up so fast in the last hour or two JFK and my location in Brooklyn up to 33-34 on southeast winds , and lga and cpk around 26-27 on northeast winds.

[jerseyshorewxguy]

Blown NWS forecast in Eastern Monmouth County.

 

No WWA, less than 1/2 inch forecast.  

 

2.75 inches and snowing moderately.

[winterwarlock]

Back edge racing through jersey....going to wind up with final total slightly over 2 inches

[Weathergun]

If it is above freezing its close. Sticking nicely. Man coastal Monmouth is having one hell of a winter. Usually the least snowy place in the NYC metro and just killing it

[nyblizz44]

Heavy snow Big flakes Kew Gardens but wont last long at all

[Absolute Humidity]

One last 50dbz band to come then do a final measurement. Maybe can reach 4"

[RU848789]

Was at PARX all day yesterday until 1 am, so I missed all the tracking fun. Got 2" of new snow here in Metuchen and judging by the radar, the snow is about done. 29F right now, so definitely colder than expected - roads are all snow-covered and slippery. 2" brings me to 60" on the season - nice!

[NJwinter23]

If you go back through the last several winters they have gotten consistently slammed in at least interior Monmouth.. check out my signature for Holmdel.

[BxEngine]

Surprisingly moderate snow here in near the triborough.

[Morris]

Any bands headed for Brooklyn?

[nyblizz44]

1.2 OTG Kew Gardens & snowing heavily past 15 minutes

For sure most notably feb 5-6 10. So their ten year average is sick. Long term it's gotta be the least snowy place within 40 miles of NYC

Light snow here now

[Joe4alb]

Mod snow in sag harbor, roads completely white, this winter won't quit....

Temp 35.9*!

[Weathergun]

Temps are now 33-34 out to Central LI south shore. So you can still accumulate. Back edge of steady is snow is now moving over NYC. Rain/snow line is over Southern Monmouth, according to Dual pol.

[SnoSki14]

Is this one of the greatest 30 day snow periods of all time from January 20 till now? I know 2010-2011 takes the cake but this has to be close. We've picked up around 2" with this one, and I've lost count of how many of these little events we've had this winter. 

 

The warm up coming up is puny compared to past warm ups around this time though I do expect highs to rise higher than forecast so probably 2-3 days of low to mid 50s, but I'm interested to see how much snow we lose, will we see a lot of dense fog/freezing fog at night, how well can we radiate at night with the snow pack despite warm temperatures aloft, and what will Friday bring? (strong winds, severe weather, heavy rain, flooding). 

[donsutherland1]

Moderate snow was falling in Yonkers.

[PB GFI]

30 Degrees and just light snow here in Colts Neck . 2.5 today  - 65 YTD .

[Brian5671]

Back edge racing east...maybe an inch here when it's all said and done

[Weathergun]

Rain/snow line on dual pool, looks like it's making another push over the east side of Fire Island.

[gkrangers]

Looks like a nice fresh inch in upper manhattan. Enough to freshen things up before some melting.

[JERSEYSNOWROB]

2 inches final total here in Marlboro, NJ Monmouth County.

[WIN]
