Tatamy Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Based upon surface obs that I am seeing most of the 10 and 15 dbz echoes in central PA are Virga and are not reaching the ground. Snow is currently reaching the ground as far north as Shippensburg PA which is well SW of Harrisburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB-99 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The Euro is way to warm at the BL. Most on the coast start as L Rain and then transition to L Snow between 0z and 3z. Little to no accumulation. I expect zero impact to the roads in and around the city and most coastal locals. There`s a good chance more snow falls for some with the snow showers tomorrow than does tonight ( I don`t expect many reports of an inch ). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatamy Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 From the ground obs that I am seeing it looks like the 15 dbz echoes represent the leading edge of the snow reaching the ground. That puts it not far west of Allentown and near the western Philly suburbs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 As of 4 pm, Sterling (IAD) had picked up 1.7" snow. Precipitation in the greater Washington area should be winding down over the next 1-2 hours. Based on observations, the edge of the accumulating snow had come farther north than shown on some of the modeling. As a result, Harrisburg had several periods of heavy snow. This may imply that a slice of Long Island (most likely Suffolk County) could see 1"-3" snow as the storm tracks well south and east of the New York City area. Islip could approach or reach the lower part of that range. Over the course of the evening, light precipitation should change to snow in Philadelphia and Wilmington as temperatures fall. Atlantic City still looks likely to see 1" or less of snow, as the changeover could be too late to allow for much more to accumulate. At 4 pm, the temperature there was still a balmy 45°. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbisso Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 This is the National Weather Service latest discussion .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/... HRRR model is depicting afternoon snowfall upstream but seems to be too slow with its movement and too far to the south. Main issue for tonight is the snow. Expecting this to occur mainly this evening to shortly after midnight. Timeframe of around 7pm to 12am. There is a possibility depending on low position of some moderate to heavy snow in that timeframe, with higher chances of seeing this across Eastern Suffolk County Long Island which will be relatively closer to the low as it is deepening late this evening. Eastern Long Island also probably still seeing some snow shortly after midnight, ending around 1-2am there. Low pressure moves off Mid-Atlantic and tracks south of Long Island close to 40N/70W benchmark while deepening slightly. It further deepens as it moves farther offshore and away from the region overnight into very early Wednesday. Precipitation amounts vary between the different forecast models. They vary with the precip area north and west of the low. 12Z NAM higher than other guidance but still want to weigh the NAM solution in because of possible banding and any additional deepening of low would result in expansion of precipitation area and a more quick cooling of boundary layer. Consensus of model data shows a relatively larger area of precipitation encompassing the coastal sections of the region with most interior areas like Orange, Putnam, and Western Passaic counties being on the outer fringe of this precip area. Precipitation is between a few hundredths of an inch to about three tenths of an inch, lowest for far NW sections of region, highest SE sections of region. Much of this occurs this evening, lasting longer for Eastern Long Island and Southeast Connecticut with some lingering snow shortly after midnight. There is potential for higher amounts of snow of a few inches more than forecast if low is stronger and is closer to the coast. Models keep a half to three quarter of an inch offshore but if this occurs farther northwest over the coastal areas, there would a mix of rain and snow changing to a relatively heavier snow, and about 2 to 3 inches more snow than forecast across all coastal areas.

binbisso Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 There's a band over the ocean that's moving into New York City right now looks like it wants to connect with the main bands that's in Eastern Pennsylvania the radar looks really good I wonder if we're going to be in for any surprises tonight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbisso Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Radar really exploding over Central New Jersey and out over the ocean still looks to be moving northward. A lot of times models do not handle these bands well and they can shift further North then currently modeld 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeadInTheClouds Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 It would be great if NYC metro and Long Island get a nice surprise from this system. So much talk on this board recently about about 60 degree warmth it would be nice to get a little snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
