It's just plain ugly out there.  2-2.5" of snow, 20 minutes of heavy sleet and now it's raining the coldest rain I've seen in a long time at 22*.  I went to take the garbage out and decided to push some off so it's not a thick white block of ice in the morning.  Within 30 seconds the whole thing turned into a skating rink.  So now instead of a thick block of ice I'll have a thin sheet.  Nice  :tomato:

Could that have frozen implications for NW NJ and the catskills?

Unfortunately no.  The primary low center heads to Montreal.  There is an area of lower pressure extending south from the primary low, but there is no distinct redevelopment.  The mid-levels tell the tale.  This is a rainer tomorrow.

Uncle said we have until Feb15th for a shot at Central Park getting 30 inches in 30 days. I believe Central Park is now at 31.2. Another metric to judge this extreme winter!
