OT: Minor to Moderate (2-4?) Snowfall Likely Sat morning (2/17); will be <32F, so expect slick roads

[MulletCork]

Woke up at 5:30am to the sound of the Bobcat outside clearing snow already. I was like “this early!?” and then saw how much snow came down since 1am!!

Very picturesque on all the trees too. Wow at least it’s a Saturday and it’s light.

5:30? You’re lucky, I was woken up at 3:30 this morning to a plow in our parking lot.

 

[RUJohnny]

Still some showery stuff in PA to move through but breaking up

Probably will be offset by some settling and melting. Might snow another half inch but I don't know if it will accumulate another half inch.

 

[RU848789]

As of about 5.50 am the snow band finally petered out and I measured 11.0" for a paltry 1" in the last hour - usually i would kill fire that lol. Could still get another inch over the next few hours but the main event is over. Saw 12" retorted in Readington and plenty of 10+" amounts in CNJ and 9.9" in Metuchen at 5 am which is very close to my 10" at 4.45 am. Really feeling like a once in a lifetime event for a surprise localized major storm and especially getting 2"/hr rates for 5+ hours. Very lake effect like.

 

[bac2therac]

9.5 inches here in Belle Mead but way less on treated surfaces...maybe 5-6 inches

 

[RocktheRac]

Anyone knows snow totals down the shore? Friend runs trucks out of Home Depot to there.

 

[Postman_1]

Hamilton didn’t seem to have much. Maybe 3-4” on cars less on the roads and sidewalks. Just drove to work from Hamilton to Bala Cynward the highways were fine

 

[bac2therac]

There is a stronger band entering Jersey to maybe give Numbers the 12 inches he is craving

 

[RedTeam1994]

Red bank area - just eye balling it….Looks like a lot more than last week to me.

Someone said it’s light stuff. Hope so

It’s very pretty tho

Red bank area - just eye balling it….Looks like a lot more than last week to me.

Someone said it’s light stuff. Hope so

It’s very pretty tho

its very fluffy type stuff like cotton balls for those of us who got the heavier amounts

 

[RocktheRac]

They just plowed the road in development and very very slippery underneath

 

[bac2therac]

I think when the sun comes its going to melt this stuff quick....not a lot of water equivalent in this snow

this was a very high ratio storm unlike the last one. In fact there was way more moisture with the last system compared to this one which was widow maker shoveling. This one is easy..dry snow

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Anyone knows snow totals down the shore? Friend runs trucks out of Home Depot to there.

Ask Sweat Pea

Ask Sweat Pea

I see what you did there

5" in long branch...

Here's a pic of my semi-final measurement (one more moderate band coming thru)

 

[RocktheRac]

Here's a pic of my semi-final measurement (one more moderate band coming thru)

Those inches look too close together . Is that an official yardstick?

 

[zappaa]

Crazy….
Only the expected couple inches in Montclair

 

[RU848789]

EPIC! I might have a foot in Readington. Cleared it with a BROOM.

Broom here too

Time for bed... top 5 all time storm...

 

[bac2therac]

Broom here too

Time for bed... top 5 all time storm...

What no snow angels

Why not enjoy it...half will be gone by the time you wake up

You should be pulling an all day all night for Snowmegadon/Melody reunion

 

[bac2therac]

This last band will put me over 10 inches

Sun with snow thats a first

 

[bac2therac]

10 inches but only 3-4 now on pavement

 

[MulletCork]

No joke, channel 11 was broadcasting from downtown Metuchen. Lady said we just spoke to a man outside who was very excited about the snow.

 

[RUChoppin]

Well, safe to say this forecast was a bust, lol

 

[bac2therac]

well the last two storms sort of prove that looking at model runs anywhere beyond 72 hours is pointless besides identifying a threat and sometimes you have to wait until 48 hours or less

 

[Jm0513]

Maybe 2 inches here in Nutley(Essex Co)
It looks heavenly outside. I want to be a squirrel napping in a tree on these fluffy pillows. HAHAHA.
Watching it fall as I sip some coffee w/the dog. It’s still quiet and I love these moments. The college kid is home for the weekend and will wake up to a yummy breakfast. 🫶
Life is good!

Or just look out the window in the morning

 

[newell138]

Anyone knows snow totals down the shore? Friend runs trucks out of Home Depot to there.

In OC we got less than an inch

 

[newell138]

There is a stronger band entering Jersey to maybe give Numbers the 12 inches he is craving

Sounds like That may happen at the Melody reunion

Just finished up some blueberry pancakes. The blueberries from Chile this time of year are just as good as NJs

 

[jaydogsmooth1]

Looks like 3-4 inches in Northern Howell

Hopefully chocolate chip pancakes

9 inches in P’way. But streets look ok
