OT: Minor to Moderate Snow/Mix Likely Sat Evening (2/8) through Sun am

This event is looking a bit snowier and more impactful than today's event, although we're still ~60 hours from the start of the event relative to the 12Z models coming out now (which had 7 am EST data inputs). Could see snow starting late afternoon/early evening Saturday and at least a few inches of snow are expected for areas N of 276/195 (and maybe down to Philly/SNJ) with several inches possible along/N of 78 before any mixing with or changeover to sleet and maybe freezing rain or plain rain (most likely to see plain rain south of 276/195 and it might be all frozen N of 78). The precip should be over by 7-10 am on Sunday. Note that some models are showing up to 0.2" of freezing rain for even the 95 corridor, especially south of 276/195, where a change to freezing rain or rain is more likely. The chances of a complete miss or an all rain event are about nil this close in.

Will post the 12Z model summary around 1 pm, but we already have a couple of fairly snowy predictions being made by both News12 and TWC, which both have a lot more snow forecast than today's event. Specifically, TWC has a 3" line along 276/195 from about Hatboro to Trenton to Belmar with 3-5" from that line north to close to 78 with 5-8" north of 78 and 1-3" south of 276/195 to about a line from Wilmington to LBI, while News12 has their 3" line from about Titusville to Sandy Hook with 3-6" north of that line through the rest of CNJ and all of NNJ (and adjacent EPA/NYC) and 1-3" south of that line with the 1" line going from about Salem to AC. On the other hand, as per below, the NWS is a bit less bullish with 1-3" from about 276/195 to 78 and 3-5" north of 78, but 1" or less south of 276/195 (including Philly/SNJ). Stay tuned.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
646 AM EST Thu Feb 6 2025

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
For now, general consensus amongst forecast guidance is that this
system is trending slightly colder, meaning more snow is possible!
As precipitation begins on Saturday afternoon, most locales should
encounter a period of light snow as temperatures will be below or
around the freezing mark heading into Saturday night. However, a
modest ramp-up in warm air advection is anticipated to occur later
Saturday night as a warm nose aloft progresses northward. This will
result in a gradual change over to sleet and/or freezing rain from
south to north. Point forecast soundings suggest that freezing rain
may be favored over sleet so have included this potential in the
forecast. As temperatures warm overnight throughout the atmospheric
column, a changeover to plain rain is expected across the Delmarva
and most of the Coastal Plain. However, frozen precipitation may
hang on for the duration of the event especially up in the higher
elevations of the Lehigh Valley, Poconos and northern New Jersey.
The timings and specifics of the changeover are not yet set in
stone, but the greatest potential for a prolonged period of frozen
precipitation lies over the usual spots of the higher terrain areas.

In terms of amounts, the current forecast calls for 0.40-0.70" of
liquid QPF. Breaking this down into snow/sleet totals, anticipate a
C-1" for the northern Delmarva and much of the I-95 corridor
including the Philadelphia metro. Just north of the I-95 corridor up
to and including the I-78 corridor, expecting 1-3". Once north of
the I-78 corridor and especially north of I-80, amounts upwards of 3-
5" are possible. There will also be freezing rain accretion over
most of the area, but amounts should generally range from a T-0.1"
(locally higher). Considering this, Winter Weather headlines will
likely be needed within the next 24-48 hours.

Basketball Rutgers Basketball stuns Nebraska on the road with three-point barrage

TV/STREAM: FS1
WHO: Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs. Nebraska Cornhuskers
WHEN: Thursday at 9:00pm ET
WHERE: Pinnacle Bank Arena (15,998) -- Lincoln, Nebraska
SPREAD: Nebraska -8.5pts || Over / Under at 146.5pts

Pike outcoached. Again. Disgusted.

No feel for rotations. Guys standing around on offense. Commentators even said that we were screwing around in second half warmups. He has no control over this team. The game has passed him by. There’s so much more to add but I’m disgusted.’ And here come the Pike apologists shooting me down and fondly remembering the one win in the dance.

Ace and Dylan Attitudes

Dylan and Ace remind me of Daryl Strawberry on the Mets back in the day - when things were going good, and he was the toast of the town everything was great. When things weren't going good he wasn't mature enough to find a way to help the team, and instead became a distraction and an anchor around the teams neck. Maybe a bit harsh of an analogy, but if Ace and Dylan are not having a big spotlight game they both become net negatives and don't find ways to help this team win. I would expect more from the 2 best players on our team - freshman or not! Incredibly frustrating season.
