Heisy Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 This band over dover NJ is just locked in at this spot. Thought it was gonna go west it’s actually sunk south. It hasn’t left in over 2 hours I have just enough latitude. Have to have close to 20. Anyone live near dover that has a official total? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poker2015 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Finally back to light snow for the past hour or so...anyone in my area measure lately? I know Somerville was at 18 inches around 12pm...maybe we picked up an inch since then...need another band to come through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the trained spooter in somerville I guess was lying too..... Its possible; I have close to 15 in Woodbridge and it stopped snowing hours ago; been sleet since around noon. If not for that I would think 20 was a real possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been over for some of us for awhile already.....hasn't snowed here in hours. Heavy then light sleet. Dry slot too. But we had a great go of it for several hours this morning, where it came down heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 20 plus around my house near the roof line but in the flat its 10 to 12. Nothing is impossible but I say people are likely measuring roof blow off or drifts. Prior to the dry slotting....EPIC radar returns persisted overhead for a good hour and a half...... During that time there was zero precipitation of any kind what so ever. No sleet, no nothin.....barely any pixy dust floating around either. Cleaned off the cars again, chatted with the neighbors etc....... So much for "radar returns" I don't know what your total is thus far. But that onshore band had dropped waffle sized snowflakes for 2 hours leading up to noon.. Never saw anything like it...Light and fluffy waffles at that, which was crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 0z NAM had us going above freezing (33) by 5pm. Instead we've fallen a degree back to 29 over the past 30 minutes. Not sure what that means, except that the snow won't be too heavy to shovel yet...and I'm heading out now with shovel in hand. 29, light to moderate snow. Wind is strong gusting much more frequently than before. It's a technicality, but I think not doing a blizzard warning was actually the right call. The wording is somewhat subjective, but allows for a warning if there are frequent gusts over 35mph. They weren't especially frequent before. They are now, but the viz is up a bit. Can't speak for the entire island, but that's how I'm seeing it. Edit, Smithtown, NY (2N Smithtown) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same may be true now. Very light sleet right now; even if it changes to snow it is too light to do much. Haven't looked at radar. We need some heavier bands if we are gonna add to this over here.

RU848789 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 NWS just just gave hope for many, as they updated all their warnings/advisories (edited to make it legible). Wish they would've put together a map of snowfall still to come, but this says it in text form, but they did at least update the overall event map, so if you know what you have, you can see what they think is coming, by difference. 4-7" more for all of CNJ. Not sure I'm buying it, but we'll see. Would also be nice for all the snow weenies in the Philly/SNJ/Trenton areas who have gotten shafted so far get at least some more. https://www.weather.gov/phi/winter4-7" more for Hunterdon-Somerset-Middlesex-Western Monmouth-Mercer-Western Montgomery-Eastern Montgomery-Upper Bucks-Lower Bucks4-8" more fo Berks-Delaware-Philadelphia-Western Chester-Eastern Chester7-10" more for Sussex-Warren-Morris-Carbon-Monroe-Lehigh-Northampton3-5" more for Eastern Monmouth-Ocean-Southeastern Burlington3-6" more for New Castle-Salem-Gloucester-Camden-Northwestern Burlingtonhttps://www.weather.gov/phi/winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowGoose69 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I believe the lack of thundersnow might be the result of milder ocean temps. The east flow in the 600-650 layer probably causing warmer temps, less instability than normal. This is a storm that 20-30 years ago would have almost certainly have had widespread TSSN.

Just seems strange that the 12/09 and 2.83 events which had pretty similar setups in regard to that insane easterly inflow had widespread TSSN and this one did not...those were more in the Miller A type category however (not sure 83 was a true Miller A but it was not a B). so might be more involved.

jm1220 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Montauk's still at 33, models had them a good 5 degrees warmer than now. Later tonight when things really do die off and upper air temps warm up there could be some nasty glaze if we have drizzle for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might need to see 00Z soundings to see how widespread warmth is...I cannot get any aircraft soundings today since there are practically no flights into those 3 airports. No model showed 925 or 850 getting that far west til tonight if at all so its likely random little layers here or there at 750-875 that are 0.1 or 0.2C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
