I'm over the epic look of 3 weeks ago not producing a MECS/HECS or big numbers I passed average and it was colder than normal could have done worse in a La Nina.

KamuSnow Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Haven't measured yet, looks like 4 or 4.5 or so for the coastal round, but what I want to say is, this is awesome! Heart of winter type stuff, and I'm loving it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Looks like we got one more weenie band to get through and that should do it. Think we should stay snowing through at least 1 pm.

Temp down to 17F, pure powdered sugar blowing around out there. Any word on MacChump and if his non-shovel-touching streak is in jeopardy? Lol. Used the snowblower instead so technically the streak is alive but I guess that’s really against the spirit of the streak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heart of winter type stuff, and I'm loving it! Agreed! Dry powder in peak climo is my favorite type of snow. If it snows in March, fine, whatever. But I don’t care much for that heavy, wet concrete.

RedSky Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 The elongated low look the models got right it was definitely a thing. But the vortex over the Delmarva helped keep the moisture transport going into PA and prevented a bust. My take anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 3 hours ago, RU848789 said: Well, we got some light to moderate snow the past 2 hours and we're now up to 6.25", which is a nice storm, but very likely will fall a bit short of my 8.25" prediction. Part of that is because the NWS predicted 14:1 ratios, so I kind of figured that in, but DonCat in Staten Island reported a 12:1 ratio - if it had been 14:1, I'd be at 7.3" now. No biggie, just interesting to observe. It's still snowing and the radar looks like we might have another hour or two with a shot at a heavier band as the storm pivots and starts heading ENE. For hours I've been watching heavy bands about 10-15 miles east of me falling apart as they move west, but maybe we'll still get one. Oh well, still a fun storm. 20F. Took a much needed nap and did some shoveling and walking around and as of 12:00 pm, we have 7.25" here in Metuchen, which was very, very hard to measure with the windblown snow, so it was probably an average of at least 20 measurements around the yard (the snowboard measurement seemed a touch high to me at 7.6") which is close to my 8.25" prediction - wasn't sure we'd get that close a few hours ago, but the mostly light snow still delivered 1/3" per hour for the last 3 hours. 19F now. Debating what to do with the 1/4" I got yesterday in the late morning - have seen some saying to include it - if so, I got 7.5". I'm inclined to not include it, as it was from the front/clipper and we had many hours of no snow after that. Don't think we'll get more than another 1/4", looking at the radar. 7.25" seems consistent with numbers I've seen reported near me in Middelsex County here and elsewhere, such as 8.5" in Carteret, 7" in P'way, 8" in Woodbridge, 8.5" in Staten Island, and 7.5" in New Brunswick. Haven't seen any reports from Edison/Metuchen, though. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some reporting 12" - 14" and others in the 5" - 6" range but those differences could be due to the timing of measurement and reporting.

ChescoWx Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Our final snow total in East Nantmeal Township was 5.8" - with 3.0" falling since midnight. The January snow total is now 12.9" which is 2.9" above normal for January to date and means we will finish with above the normal January snowfall in Western Chesco of 10.5". We are at 79% of normal seasonal snowfall just 3.3" below our normal seasonal snowfall through today of 16.2". Easy fluffy snow the blower worked like a champ this time!! finished product attached! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandMike Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Looks like about 1.5" here. Annoyingly, it's just enough to warrant the snow shovel--I tried blowing it off the driveway with a leaf blower but it wouldn't shift the bulk of it.
