jm1220 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 The band over E NJ isn't looking so good anymore. Ahh well, maybe tomorrow night will give us something. It's hard to see accumulations when the temp is 36 on an east wind, with on/off snow that never gets above moderate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L.I.Pete Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 On and off light snow here in Upton...but looks like we're about to get whacked by some heavy returns coming off the ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEXtreme Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Kearny NJ Snow lighten up for about 30 minuets and has now picked up again in the past 10 minutes. Getting heavier by the minute. Closing in on 4 inches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sn0waddict Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 That heavy band is knocking on my door step. It's oh so close. For now I just have light snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv88 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 the heavy band that was socking queens died out before it got to central nassau...so its just some light snow to dampen the ground a bit...oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag3 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 NYC east is getting hurt by surface temps. If this were a night time event, they would have 3"-4", just like Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 That heavy band is knocking on my door step. It's oh so close. For now I just have light snow. really picking up here now...let's hope that band can park over us for a few hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the radar, it's been spotty at best with the heavier snows. At home, still no accumulation anywhere and on/off snow. If the temp were colder, it might get us an inch at best.

chazman Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Just a lil too warm here Prob 34-35F. Just sticking mostly to grass/cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherFox Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Snow is coming down at an occasional moderate clip in Beechhurst, NY. Sidewalks here are snow covered. If it lasts we will get an inch or two. NYC east is getting hurt by surface temps. If this were a night time event, they would have 3"-4", just like Jersey.

LocoAko Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Big Flakes still and coming down at a nice clip in Jersey City. We are getting clipped by some 25 dbz's . Hey! I was in Bayonne at a doctor's appointment but I just got back and measured and came up with a resounding 2.1". I don't know why people just to my NW are reporting almost double that. Unfortunately my snow board has been buried and I forgot to dig it out so I have been measuring in my backyard but yeah, I don't think we have over 2.5"...

Brian5671 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 NYC east is getting hurt by surface temps. If this were a night time event, they would have 3"-4", just like Jersey. I think the nam temp profile the other day showed that perfect-had the freezing line right on the NJ shore, where as to the north and east side of the inverted trough it was well inland...despite moderate snow here, only addding up on the cold surfaces-almost like a March event where it's just not cold enough...once past 3pm if it's still snowing at least the solar radiation will be out of the equation....

Sundog Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 A plow and sander just passed by lol to clean up my zero accumulation. They passed by twice today but waited more than 48 hours before making an appearance with the blizzard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edge Weather Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 The WRF-ARW develops a 989 mb low about 50 miles off Cape May at 30 hrs, then deepens it to 987 mb at 33 hrs about 100 miles off Asbury Park, then at 36 hrs it develops a secondary low or broadens the original low and has two centers one about 150 miles offshore of Asbury Park at 986 mb and the second one about 20 miles off Asbury Park at 987mb , then it deepens that low to 985 mb about 50 miles offshore of Asbury Park, then deepens to a 983mb about 100 miles off Asbury Park, it then deepens it to a 982mb near the Benchmark at 45 hrs. Precip wise it brings an area from about Harrisburg to Baltimore, all of Eastern PA, all of NJ, all of CT, and SE NY state at least 3-4 inches of snow tomorrow, with possibly a bit more in Central NJ and possibly even more than that on Long Island maybe around 6 inches or so, and coastal CT could get a foot according to the WRF-ARW.

If the temp were colder, it might get us an inch at best. agreed...but you had to have seen this coming. on the south shore of LI we NEVER do good in these situations....i would have bet the ground wouldnt have even been whitened from this.... steve d had the best forecast....6" with isolated 12" on LI....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAT5ANDREW Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Todays storm should forever put to rest the sun angle theory.Temps and not sun angle that make the difference.I have seen snow in March and April stick with no problem with temps 32 or below and days like today in early JAN where a degree or 2 above freezing means mostly wet surfaces.
