Below is the radar estimated rainfall for the storm so far. Looks like most have gotten between 0.75 and 1.5" in the region, which was much needed. The rain is mostly over for the Philly/SNJ with maybe only another 1/4" of rain to come, but further north there is still a decent amount to come especially north of 78 with an inch or more of additional precip likely. In addition, there's still the potential for snow late tonight into Friday for areas well NW of 95, where several inches are likely, especially above 1000' in the Poconos and maybe far NW Sussex and the Catskills, as cold air wraps in around the retrograding low. Could even be the first measurable snow (1/2" or so) for areas north of 78 and west of 287 up to the NY line and beyond. Hoping to still get mood flakes and maybe a coating here and along 95. Updated precip to come and snowfall to come maps below.

The NWS-Philly has issued advisories (blue) for Warren/Morris for 1-4" of snow and Sussex for 2-4" of snow (and 4-6" above 1200') late tonight into tomorrow morning and the NWS-NYC has issued similar advisories for W. Passaic and the Hudson Valley north of the Tappan Zee. For all of these advisories the NWS has tried to make it clear that this event is very elevation dependent, i.e., the 2-4" amounts will most likely be above about 1000' while areas at less than 500' will likely only get an inch or so. The watches for the Poconos/Catskills have been converted to warnings (pink) for 6" or more (and a foot or so above 2500') of snow. I'm sure the maps will be updated shortly.

It's also now likely that we'll even see white rain, i.e., snow that doesn't accumulate due to surface temps in the mid-30s tomorrow morning all the way down to the 95 corridor from Philly to NYC - although some slush could accumulate on grassy/colder surfaces when snowfall intensity is greater. For most of the region, the snow will change back to rain during the afternoon as temps warm back up to 40F or above and as precip rates decrease significantly. Treated roads in the advisory areas at lower elevations will likely not become snow-covered and there is little risk of snow covered roads outside of the advisory areas unless there's a major forecast change.

Quick math shows Hayes and Martini at 50% combined from 3 on 30 combined attempts. At some point we will see them get some real time with Ace and Dylan plus.... somebody. Maybe Acuff. I'm not sure who we would defend but it would be fun to see (for a while at least).

not as quick math shows we are 35th in offensive efficiency and 181st in defensive efficiency right now with limited sample size. Don't be shocked if PT goes to improve the 181 and not the 35

Fun RU Stats - In Too Small Sample Size

L
Yeah, I know ... it is just 4 games ... against lower to mid-level teams from low to mid-major conferences. And Bailey only played in 2 games. And Williams has played hurt and missed a game. And Acuff may not be 100% yet. So, the team stats are meaningless ... way too small a sample size.

Even so ... fun:

1) Overall FG%: RU is shooting 49.8% from the field through 4 games. Five (5) individual players are shooting more than 50% FG (Bailey, Harper, Martini, Sommerville, Hayes).

2) 3-Point FG%: RU is shooting 37% from 3-point range, though just in 4 games. Hayes is at 54% (7-13), Martini is at 47% (8-17), Bailey is at 43% (3-7), Acuff is at 38% (3-8) and Harper is at 31% (5-16).

3) FT%: RU is shooting 71% from FT ... this is not great, but a big improvement over prior years. They are led by Derkack, at 13-14 (93%) ... Bailey is at 72% (9-12 in just 2 games) ... Sommerville is at 72% (13-18) ... Harper is at 71% (17-24) ... Davis is at 64% (7-11) ... Martini and Hayes ate 100% in 6 total FT between the 2 of them ... Ogbole is 3-9, 33% ... RU is 75% excluding Ogbole (who obviously counts ... but won't be on the court at end game times).

4) RU has 67 assists on 111 FG's ... 60% of FG's from assists.

5) On defense, though not sure this is good or bad or somewhere in between given the level of the competition: RU's opponents are shooting 39% FG overall, and 33% from 3-point range. RU is not forcing many TO's, though: Just 9.8 per game (I cannot even remember when RU was that low at any point of the season under Pikiell). Still, RU does have 6.5 steals per game, which is not bad, I do no think ... and 4.5 blocked shots per game, also not awful (Sommerville is the leader at 2.0 blocks per game). Also not a high level, due to the competition, RU has given up an average of 65 points per game on defense ... that will rise as the level of competition rises, one would think.

I am sure there are more, but after only 4 games, I thought this would be fun.
