middlesea Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Otherwise, 180 KT Jet in the 12Z OKX Sounding - not a coupled jet structure, but a heck of an entrance region driving a textbook ageostrophic direct circulation (see Uccellini and Johnson, 1979). Overall, a very powdery snow will lessen impacts (and make for easier shoveling!) While the dprog/dt of the HRRR/RAP have lowered QPF with the last few runs, Radar Reflectivity is very impressive as of 1630Z. Local Storm Reports from Delaware are supporting 2+ inches per hour rates approaching Long Island. Will issue another Special Wx Statement.

Just light, fine snow in the air and a coating on the ground. When you add the clutter option back it looks much worse than its been the last hour or so.

jm1220 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Just dumping snow now. Borderline heavy. And really piling up, I'd say we're close to 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RU848789 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 59 minutes ago, RU848789 said: Up to 1" as of 11 am, reflecting the increase in intensity the past half hour (1" per hour rate). If that keeps up, we'll get more than 3". Down to 19F. About 1.75" as of 12 pm in Metuchen. Snow/radar have lightened up a bit - hopefully a lull. Love that the NWS finally upgraded most of the region to advisories and even warnings, although I'm skeptical of Middlesex reaching the 6" criterion for a warning (maybe SE half will). I'll be ecstatic with 4 or 5". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxWeatherwatcher Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 well considering that i live in the bronx ,i can def confirm that we have exceeded the 1.5 inch mark here at my locale in norwood,it's ripping outside right now also,so def working on 2 inches currently.this is a wind blown snow so measurements might be off a bit folks,not to mention localized banding.

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 5 minutes ago, Cfa said: It might be that cold now, but it's been pretty mild lately, there's likely some residual warmth. The ground isn't frozen (at least here it isn't). I know snow can accumulate on warm surfaces, but it doesn't happen at the same rate as snow piling up on cold surfaces. Not true at all, I'm in manahattan the epicenter of warm ground and it's sticking to broadway with meh rates. That and the soil is rock solid frozen.

Snowfall rates of 1 to locally 2 inches per hour this afternoon will reduce visibility to less than 1/4 of a mile at times. With temperatures in the lower 20s, most roadways are snow covered. Travel is extremely dangerous and should be avoided. $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwarlock Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 you can really see where the heavier axis wants to set up...from southeast of Trenton in NJ riding up an axis just south of NYC...a some narrow heavier stuff in PA coming in but I think 2-4 for north central jersey is looking like they right call.
