Wow it might have been bigger than the Jan 2016 snowstorm then (it had more total precip didn't it? We did hit 3.0" total precip here in Jan 2016).

Stormlover74 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I didn't know this happened during the 83 blizzard: February 11, 1983: Bulk carrier Marine Electric sinks in a savage winter storm, killing 31 of its 34 crew members. In their search for answers, investigators discover that dozens of other carriers are also at risk.

North and West Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 My favorites overall, without going into detail, are: 2/8/1994 - 2/11/1994, solely for being 11 years old after the nothing winters preceding it. January 1996, because of course December 30, 2000, because it was the first big one since 1996, and it happened to bullseye Morris County; 18" in 6 hours. February 5, 2001, because it over performed and was very pretty January 2011, since we had some pretty good thunder snow February 2014, as we had a big front-end thump, and then sleet later on January 2016, which was more than 1996 in my neighborhood March 7, 2018, recent, but amazing to see. Devastated my neighborhood with 20"+ of heavy, wet snow bringing down trees and power lines, but the daytime rates in March were amazing to see from the perspective of a weather enthusiast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove to school that day, and it was supposed to turn to rain, IIRC. It did for about ten minutes prior to my 8 am class, and then snow again right after that.

It was a really tough forecast as closer to the city it was rain until late in the day. We kept going back and forth but I don't think they expected 8-12" to pile up in about 6 hours. Kinda similar to the November storm we just had 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
