Everything else looks moderate or light but that band by the Delaware gap movies east looks like no joke! That band should drop an inch alone considering the ratios should be at least 16:1 or so That was a micro death band, near 3" now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L.I.Pete Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Roads and cars covered in Port Jeff Station. Should be a nice little event. As an aside, it was 97 degrees when I left Melbourne, Aus this morning. Got home to 29 and this a couple hours ago. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ja643y Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Is it me or does the secondary not seem to want to take over? I can see the pressure drops off the delmarva, but doesn't look like the surface and wind' aloft are responding. And the moisture from the primary doesn't seem to be collapsing, rather just tracking East in a little but of a strungout/elongated manner.

RU848789 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 What a gorgeous night out there. We have 1.375" of pretty low bulk density snow out there - small dendrites - very birefringent with very low moisture content - I'd guess at least a 15:1 ratio. Snow stopped here around 2 am and I'm about to go to sleep (was up making the playlist for our dept. holiday party tomorrow). Looks like most folks got 1-2". Not sure if the band in central PA will make it here or not. Mt. Holly doesn't seem optimistic, talking about dropping the advisories early (not a surprise). All paved surfaces are covered with snow, but I imagine any treated major road with traffic will be ok in the morning, while sidewalks and sidestreets will be very slippery. http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=PHI&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off 235 AM EST Thu Dec 14 2017 .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/... Mesoscale update: Vigorous but fast-moving snow band moved through the southern half of the CWA during the past 3 hours. Snow reports indicate generally 0.5-1.5 inch totals with the band, mostly in about 1-2 hours. Pronounced dry slot has moved into the area generally along/south of I-76/I-295 corridor, and hi-res models show little precip occurring the rest of the night in this area. Meanwhile, precip to the north looks lighter but longer-lasting. For now, will keep current advisory as is given the signal for at least light precip to the north for the next few hours, but the snow looks mostly done Philly southward. Expect slick roads tomorrow morning, but I suspect there will be little additional snow. If current trends continue, portions of the advisory will need to be cancelled early. Grids update: Dew points were way too low (which makes sense given the very sudden snowfall and shallow dry layer), so needed to adjust these upward considerably overnight. Spatial distribution of temperatures is largely based on presence of snow or not, so frequent updates to temps will be required through the night. For now, teens in the Poconos and twenties elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WWA for Saturday on LI was a joke; this time it is more warranted. Should start within next 2 hours too, enjoy. It was warranted for what happened Saturday Night, all the roads were snowcovered then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't spend nights anguishing over model fluctuations on this one, and if it just covers the ground no one has reason to be disappointed. Interesting that the most accidents by a factor of 2:1 occur in 1-2 inch snowstorms lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
