HVSnowLover Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Surprised the 6Z NAM didn't reel people back into talking about this one, possibly a fluke run but will be interesting to see how far north the precip makes it with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope not here. I'm at about 10" of frozen precip with about 2" of that being snow and the rest ice and sleet. 3 ice storms in a row to start the year kinda sux. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably was. The last few runs of the HRRR are pretty putrid though one can argue beyond 8 hours it’s iffy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably around 10” for the season but most of it sleet on top of snow. It had good staying power but it’s gone. I at least had a white Christmas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about 12 miles south of 84 in Orange County and have 15.6 inches on the season. Granted 12 of it from the December 1-3 storm so this is gradually descending into a C- winter here from what was an A, Dec 1 through the 15th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Doesn’t seem like it would take too much to make it a slightly better event-2-4” maybe? It would mostly be on colder surfaces but I would call that “half decent” in a season like this. I know in our good seasons we would barely blink. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikem81 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The LP is really almost in a perfect position. Must be too much dry air, surprised precip field is so narrow on the models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJW014 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 That initial rain is really screwing the Jersey Shore. By the time we change to snow, the heaviest precip will be out of here. Go 15 miles inland, it's a different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv88 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Let it snow. Think we are good for a solid 1" out here, its warm now though, not sure the rates will make this more than a car topper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks IrishRob based on Don S's snowfall tallies, looks like the average snowfall line is from Binghamton to Boston. Time will tell if that progresses southward as the season moves along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany(Capital region) has received about 30 so far which is half their seasonal total already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 At 11:10 am, snow had moved into Charlottesville. Ahead of the snow, temperatures had risen into the middle 40s in Atlantic City (45°), Baltimore (45°), and Washington, DC (45°). As precipitation arrives this afternoon, temperatures at those locations should fall. Therefore, rain should change to snow. The 12z GFS has come in a little snowier. The 12z RGEM was fairly consistent with the 0z ECMWF. The HRRR is not impressed with the system. Widespread 2"-3" amounts appear possible just to the west of the Baltimore-Washington corridor. As the storm deepens, some periods of moderate snow could also impact eastern Long Island. The potential for a narrow area of 1"-3" amounts in part of New Jersey exists. Therefore, I made some minor adjustments. Overall, my thinking concerning snowfall amounts remains similar to that of last evening: Atlantic City: 1" or less Baltimore: 1"-3" Harrisburg: 1" or less Islip: 1" or less New York City: 0.5" or less Newark: 0.5" or less Philadelphia: 1" or less Sterling: 1"-3" Washington, DC: 1"-3" Wilmington, DE: 1"-2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
