snowwors2 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 What radar do you guys use? My very favorite is: http://www.my-cast.com/#Ambler,+PA You can plot your location by address or long/lat Very accurate for delineating rain/snow/ice types Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Seems unfair that folks in NW NJ and NE PA have more snow than we do in Central NJ - they're going to get a lot more snow anyway and they start off with more? Just whining, lol. Anyway, snow picking up in intensity after the lull with temp around 32F. Got 3/8" by about 10 pm and then nada until about midnight. Would love to at least get 2-3" with the front end - that would put us at about 1.3" liquid equivalent total on the ground (we got 5" on 1/24, then 7" on 1/26 and 1" on 1/30, which is about 1.3" LE and I'm assuming we've only lost ~25% of that, leaving 1" LE - haven't actually measured though) and should be enough to hold the 3/4" or so of rain we're supposed to get, without losing too much snow cover to melting - going to be some serious cement after the freeze in the afternoon.

GD0815 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks Ray. lol, just seems like a lot of reports of heavy snow when I have a feeling it might be more in the line of moderate. but i could be wrong. plus ray might point out that it is actually slightly more than 1/4 of a mile.

KamuSnow Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I gave up with it. No one listens. This year, anything more than flurries is heavy to you guys I don't have a reference point that I know to be 1/4 mile away....my measure of heavy snow is when it accumulates 1 1/2" - 2" an hour (or more). That's probably not correct but I like to reserve the "heavy" label for either those kind of rates or when I can't see the trees behind one neighbor's house which is about 600 feet from here.

RedSky Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I like that HRRR hope it's right, would limit heavy rain to no more than a couple hours after complete change by the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
