Ian Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 But at least someone in SNE will get screwed by it. at least for a bit.. mattmfm is probably sweating. of course if you look at the area around the jersey coast there is a mauling headed toward the north for later.

33andrain Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Looking at the MarylandWx radar it looks like another "Burst" of light snow is moving across the bay into eastern Baltimore County. I never thought I would be all farts giggles over a bit of light snow as Ocean City, MD is under a Blizzard Warning.

Terpeast Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Long Island has really been cashing it in. They got up to 26" from the Dec 2009 blizzard, and now 2 ft is expected to fall there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop ruining any fun I can squeeze out of this thing! BTW - My family's all in South Jersey - in fact, I drove home from there today. Dad said they were getting hit pretty good. I don't mind living somewhat vicariously through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were screwed in the February blizzards, but then again they've had amazing snow in winters like 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 SPC was spot on in their mesoscale discussion this morning...persistent heavy banding would be over DE and NJ....I am literally a few miles from the DE border and have rarely gotten into the light green echos. really small flakes since 10 am... lots of blowing and about 2 inches so far. Dont think the 6-12 is gonna pan out here lol. so close but not close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Yea, people in the Philly board are also complaining. But they seem to be complaining about 2 to 4 instead of the predicted 6 to 10. City of Philly seems to be doing o.k., but extreme gradient literally at the border of the city and burbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowerLowerDE Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 We are getting crushed a bit here in lower Delaware. We have around eight inches now. It's hard to tell how much because of the blowing and drifting. Went outside for a few minuets with the dog and we were both coated with snow as it is very sticky. I know you folks are missing this but there is a downside for us. It will be DAYS before we get plowed out if last years performance holds true. I was housebound for eight days at one point. Not looking forward to a repeat of that. Oh well. Here is our forecast. Wish I could send it your way.
