MJO812 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Finally a true snow event even thought this isn't going to be a lot of snow and last long. Just need 1.9 inches to reach 10 inches for the winter. Hopefully it happens Moderate snow continues here in Brooklyn with everything covered now Salt Trucks and plows are out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Had 3/4" in Rahway when I went outside to go home around 12:30 pm and Ijust got home to Metuchen and we have 1.5" of snow OTG as of 1 pm. Snow has definitely decreased in intensity, but another band looks close, but might slide just to our south. After that, the NWS is expecting lighter precip for much of the afternoon, then an increase in intensity again. Question then will be how much snow do we get before the change to sleet (late afternoon here, likely) and then how much sleet and freezing rain we get before ~1/2" of plain rain falls later tonight for most locations, except well N/W. Local roads are snow-covered and slippery and even Route 1 was slushy in many spots, so travel is not going to be easy this afternoon (unless the current lull lasts longer than expected). Hoping I make it to my 2.75" prediction for my house - NWS seems to think the 2-4" forecast for most will verify, as per the updated discussion below. 27F here. National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 1238 PM EST Wed Feb 20 2019 NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... 1230 PM: The morning round of enhanced frontogenesis lift is winding down. Expect that we will see a period of relatively light precipitation through the afternoon, before we have another round of moderate to heavy precipitation this evening. As for precipitation type, sleet is beginning to mix in in southern Delaware. As warm air aloft continues to advect in, we should see the line of a sleet mix move further north. Later this afternoon, as the elevated warm layer becomes deeper and the bottom of the layer gets closer to the surface, freezing rain becomes more of a threat for areas that may still be below freezing. For Delmarva and southeastern NJ, expect the change over to wintry mix to continue for the next few hours, followed by a change over to all rain mid afternoon. For much of the I95 corridor, the transition is expected to occur mid afternoon to early evening (unfortunately not likely to see a change over to all rain in these locations before the start of the evening commute). The southern Poconos and NW NJ will be the last to see the change over to all rain, which may not come until well after midnight tonight. Snow and ice amounts: With this update, adjusted snow amounts up slightly primarily near the MD/PA/DE border which has been the prime location for frontogenesis lift for the last few hours. Now have storm total amounts of 4 to 6 inches; already 2 to 3 inches has fallen in some locations. No changes to the ice amounts with this update. For much of the rest of the area, it still looks like a general 2 to 4 inches. Areas south of here will see amounts mostly in the 1 to 3 inch range. Additional concern is freezing rain. A light glaze up to a few hundredths of an inch of ice accretion is likely over the northern Delmarva N/E along the I-95 corridor while upwards of one to two tenths of an inch of ice is expected over portions of eastern PA from western Chester County north through Berks County, the Lehigh Valley into the southern Poconos. Impacts: Regardless of the exact snow and ice amounts, we remain very concerned that much of the region could be seeing the greatest impacts coincident with the evening commute. The one exception is much of the Delmarva and SE NJ which should see the change over to all rain before this time. Even if the snow and ice amounts are lower, the potential for ice on top of snow, could result in very slippery conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
