RU848789 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 2 hours ago, RU848789 said: Pouring heavy snow now with visibility <1/4 mile. Getting hard to measure with the wind, so took a dozen or so measurements and as of 9:30 am it averages about 2.5", which make sense, since we were around 1.5" at 8:30, which is is 1" per hour, a pretty decent rate. If the current even heavier rate holds, it'll be maybe 1.5" per hour - it's amazing out there right now. Just got in from taking our son to the doc for a sinus infection. Local/county roads and Route 1 are treacherous, but nobody's out, so not that big of a deal). As of noon, we have about 5" of snow, which continues our 1" per hour rates since 8:30 am. Looks like we should make 6". Really thought it looked like more than 1" per hour, but that's what I measured - and in a windy situation like this, I take the average of about a dozen measurements in our fairly quiescent back yard (away from trees and the house), so I don't think I could measure much better. Have been off line for 90 minutes, which I hate during a storm, but I did get a chance to go for a walk and a drive, which was nice, as it's just gorgeous out there. Time to shovel.

jm1220 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Snow intensity definitely picking back up here. Agree, this is the beginning of the pivot out. Should still be a few fun hours left at least for those along the NJ shore, NYC and east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Heaviest snow of the event ongoing now that I'm finally edging into the death band. Visibility is down to about 100m and road conditions are appalling. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestHillWx Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Reading through this thread is a roller coast of emotions.. I'm sitting at my office desk in Parsippany looking at a pretty decent clip of snow and wind; the roads in from Chester at 8:00 am were treacherous, even 287. For our area, we were always on the low end of expectations, but I for one am impressed by the storms western path; considering most global models had this storm dancing with the fishes. Cheers to those who cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 And yes, once again we're getting dumped on as the band shifts east slowly. I think we add a few inches easy from the city on east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
