Many never panned out and several that did we ended with nothing to show. I'm cautiously optimistic. Certainly not buying into the 2014. 2009,and Jan 1996 talk going on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted Sunday at 03:15 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:15 PM This morning was our coldest readings since last January 17th with temperatures dropping to as low as 8.8 degrees at Nottingham and 9.8 degrees at Warwick Park. Today will be about 20 degrees below our normal high temperatures in the low to mid 40's. More spots tonight may drop into the single digits for low temperatures. Well below normal again tomorrow before we moderate back to close to normal for the remainder of 2024. There is a chance of a little snow toward Christmas Eve morning and again by Friday night. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Reilly Posted Sunday at 03:47 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:47 PM Sunny currently 20f low this morning was 10f. We are unfortunately losing grip of our white Christmas snow cover looks like mainly to evaporation as the dewpoints are running quite low as well. Snowfall left on the ground ranges from 0" to 1.0" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted yesterday at 09:28 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:28 AM Bottomed out at 14 yesterday and only made it to 22 as a high. This morning, the bottom is falling out (although there is still a light breeze so that might kill any efficient radiational cooling). Am currently 10 with a dp of 4. Humidifiers are struggling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albedoman Posted yesterday at 09:32 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:32 AM I will be the first to say that if you are traveling Tuesday morning anywhere in the LV, please wait. Mt Holly has stated no advisories will be necessary issued as it does not meet the criteria( LOL) but they will be criticized come Tuesday morning as a potential 1-2 in snowfall will be a traveling disaster. Why? The roads will be so cold that any snow that falls will imediatley stick. A simple one inch snow on frozen road surfaces where salt will not work is way worse than a 3-4 in snow on warm roads with brine/salt like this past event. Brine will not work and placing salt down will not work. Drivers are also not used to driving on coated and extemely cold road surfaces and accidents will be everywhere. I urge Mt Holly to rethink this situation. A MIllion people now live in the LV where the freight capital of the US exists with the thousands of trucks running through the area. Salt does not work below 20 degrees on road surfaces. Its been over four days of temps below 32 degrees and with temps below 20 degrees for 2-3 days. Todays high will be in the low to mid 20's and the overnight lows tonight will be in the upper teens. After becoming cloudy by this afternnon, no chance of the road temps going up. You make your own choice but for me, I am staying off the roads until the sun comes out on Tuesday afternoon. These are the silly games of meeting criteria for advisories that NOAA needs to wake up on. Temps do matter regardless of the amount of snowfall. Case closed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Reilly Posted yesterday at 01:14 PM Share Posted yesterday at 01:14 PM Clear currently 9f last night's low was 8.0f. It's only going up up up from here. However, before we go up could be trouble tomorrow morning between 7:00 am to 10:00 am with snow, sleet, some freezing rain looking at models it should remain below freezing entire area for this very light event. There is limited moisture for the system to work with as it is basically a weak cold front that will come through then lay stationary to our south to become our warm front to allow warming to take place over the course of next week. Looks like the moisture sleet and freezing rain opportunities are in the advisory areas shaded in purple. I am guessing that the areas to the north are not in advisories because mainly very light snow will fall with not much sleet and freezing rain and should just blow off the roads? I suppose they will make adjustments today as needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
