JERSEYSNOWROB Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Went outside in the rain to shovel some snow for the snow pile while it's still there to shovel. Noticed some sleet and snow mixing in once in a while. 32F here. Congrats to all of you still getting snow! I have to admit I'm a bit jealous, but still happy for you and enjoying the reports and enthusiasm! Hahaha Almost 3am and you're shoveling. Hardcore!!! Hahaha Thats awesome! Still snowing here in Central Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There hasn't been a single normal thing about this winter. This storm is a microcosm of it. Anything goes the Monday storm could now glaciate Long Island if the Euro is on to something.

TheManWithNoFace Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 ABout 4.5 in Flemington. Took a ride to Wawa. Who are the other maniacs on the road? The "guests" in this thread? I don't like to use the weenie phrases but "pouring" out there still. No sign of sleet but snow is beginning to fall faster. Not heavier but faster...which makes me think that a change gonna come.

Hate these marginal changeovers... where it just gets a little above freezing... during a heavier burst of precip... harder to time them out and you get a bigger risk of... busts.

RU848789 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Been ripping snow since about 1 am and we now have 2" of thick, but fluffy snow on the ground and it's down to 31F - over 1" per hour the past hour. Awesome snowball snow - just threw a bunch at random objects, lol. If that SPC report comes true, we'll get 1" per hour rates for the next couple of hours, before sleet and maybe rain mixes in. Would love to get to 3-4" before that happens. Love this statement from Upton: .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/... SNOW OVERSPREADING AREA FROM SW TO NE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND WILL BECOME MODERATE TO HEAVY AT TIMES. LATEST 00Z GUIDANCE SUPPORTS AROUND HALF TO THREE-QUARTERS OF AN INCH OF LIQUID THROUGH 8 AM. WHILE THE WARMER AIR MOVES IN ALOFT TOWARD DAYBREAK...IT COULD BE A BATTLE WITH STRONG UPPER FORCING. ITS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION FOR 4 TO 6 INCHES OF SNOWFALL EVEN ALONG THE COAST BY DAYBREAK. TEMP PROFILES ARE MARGINAL SO CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR DUAL POL RADAR DATA AND HIGH RES MODELS. Holy crap, it's pouring snow out there. 1.5" over the last hour and we're up to 3.5" here in Metuchen; still at 31F. 2 more hours of this and we'll get to 6". I know Mt. Holly updated their advisories, but they ought to be thinking about issuing warnings. One other cool thing: it's absolutely still out there, which is unusual for moderate/heavy snow - and it's fairly wet snow, so it's accumulated perfectly on every tree/branch, without the wind - simply gorgeous.

green tube Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 it's interesting almost all the 18z guidance had significant snow 4-7", and all the local mets (NYC anyway,, and mt. holly) ignored it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowwors2 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I always see it as a great signal when rain to our southeast, east and NE changes back over to snow as it's doing now!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, although it's lighter now and more like rain and sleet. That's okay though, good to know we're still sort of "in the game" here. That snow with rain in it is heavy dude! Good mass for the snow pile though. It'll be like a rock next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
