As WAR expands, do our snow chances increase? First wave may produce a middling event-solid advisory and possible low end warning for MLK Weekend

[Sey-Mour Snow]

Radar lighting up in Jersey looks good for CT for a while

we pound now... growth could be a little better but vis under 1/4mi, a couple/three hours of this and can maybe get to 4"...

[ineedsnow]

[Greg]

It started snowing here about 5:45 PM. Well ahead of schedule. The mid-levels are colder than progged. This is a good sign for my neck of the woods. 36 degrees Wet steady snow.

Ripping snow now. Ground covered but that dry slot is fast approaching from SW aimed right at the “CT snow hole” smh

That down there is headed northeast not north/northeast. That will go to mostly central and eastern areas based on the trajectory.

you aren't looking at the whole picture, the better radars when you piece the albany radar and regional radar show a large band forming and moving east, it's not missing CT

[Sn0waddict]

Flakes finally getting smaller/not as well and sticking now. Coating on the ground. Hoping we miss that dry slot though near NYC

Not western CT just central and eastern areas will get that. I'm talking about the one down the coastline in New Jersey not the one. It's not going to come up straight north. Not the trajectory.

With the wind as it is, I'm pretty sure the water-facing side of the house will have very little/no snow.  It'll pad my neighbor's totals though.

I'm not saying it's heading north, I know how to read a radar and winter storm. The stuff in south Jersey will not hit western CT, but the band extends north all the way up into ENY, it will hit Western CT.  Thanks

I was just watching that on the radar. Not worried about it. If you watch it. It's actually shrinking and heading east into Long Island.

A sign of what’s coming?

A ton of lightning reports in NE NJ between Newark and Patterson, not just isolated

Steep mlvl lapse rates. I bet there is a good MAUL on some HRRR soundings. I know models were hinting at that

You’re a little NE of me. It’s gonna be close for me. I think you’re in a good spot for this but I will say it is snowing pretty hard down at the beach right now
