Do you see those periods that separate the sentences? I used the forecast and thread. The town and county used the forecasts.
OT: Minor to Moderate (2-4?) Snowfall Likely Sat morning (2/17); will be <32F, so expect slick roads

Yes I just saw a report on news12 showing kids sledding across the street from our house... channel 11 was there also? Will post a pic of I can..
We did ok, @Knight Shift @knightfan7Cool snow map... really shows the gradient...
Lightest of the light gray.👍
Hadn't played in 3 years. (Spine surgery) ....but my friend came down for r a few days and Finally got out and played a round (Brick Landing).
Have passed those courses pretty much daily. Thistle and The Pearl look good but leaving in morning for next two weeks halfway between St.A and Daytona.
Amazing. As much as I happy to be away I would just love an event like this.Cool snow map... really shows the gradient...
Need to add the I78 corridor to the I95 Corridor going forward. How the freak does that happen.Another good map
Looks like Jersey giving the Dick to the balls sitting in Pa. (Too much? Lol)Another good map
Great prediction of where the band would set up last night... he predicted it to be between 40.2-40.5N (I'm at 40.5N), although he didn't say how much the band would produce...
Ha! I remember that one! It brought the house down in my class. 😂
We are probably in the same age range. Miss those film strips too with the beep to indicate to change the slide. The teacher's pet usually got to be the slide changer. I had that role many times.
I didn’t get that honor too much but I was never brokenhearted when a projector in some form rolled into the classroom. It was either a sub or our teacher may have been hungover! To all teachers, I kid, I kid…😁
not to brag but I always got to go to the AV room to get the devices we needed
...did you ever not pay attention, miss the cue and then the picture didn't match up with the audio from the cassette tape?

No, but I noticed when others screwed up. But that is like proofreading in our office. I read something I wrote, and miss mistakes. I read somebody else's work, and mistakes jump off the page. And my work usually has more mistakes.
I think there's a specific term for that phenomenon; we basically 'read' what we write the way we wanted to write it, which can cause us to overlook grammar/spelling mistakes. One of my professors taught me to read my sentences backwards in order to catch mistakes and it works.

Yeah, Squan got 2,2" although you couldn't tell that from what I saw. I'd have guessed 1". Streets and sidewalks were clear and like earlier in the week, it melted on contact for the most part.
We got around 3 inches up here in Wayne. The driveway had pretty much melted by the time we went out early afternoon, still some on the car though.
I'm surprised she didn't give herself a black eye!

So somehow in what has been a crappy winter for many snow lovers we've overperformed on almost every storm... the 11.25" yesterday brings me to 24.5" for the season which is actually ahead of normal for this date. It's just nuts that we're 17" ahead of Central Patk, just 25 miles to our NE. I'll take it and run lol.
As much as I loathe snow, clouds and the cold, days like yesterday I'm happy for you bud. I'm always of the notion if it's gonna snow, then let it damn snow
I just wish mother nature would compromise and let winter be sunny; I'd gladly trade more snow if it meant more sun (and less wind/cold)
I drove to Toms River at about 10:30 yesterday morning. The grass was not even completely covered in many places.
Yeah she was on Main Street across from Hailey’s. Nice couple segments just obviously saying how much snow they got and also promoting the town some too.
Isn't that right around annual average? Did a quick search for New Brunswick and found RU's data going back like a century for a 25 inch annual avg.
May be too low once you factor in the #s backyard effect, though 😁
I was talking to a couple family friends from the RU meteorological/climatology programs earlier this winter and they think the CPK measurements the past couple of years are total nonsense and are either being taken incorrectly or they are measuring next to a heating vent lol. Something similar was happening at the EWR site.
Is there anything about our geography or location that makes predicting the weather harder than other areas?
Such as the mountains to the west then ocean close to the east?
The huge amount of people?
Are weather predictions easier in the Midwest where the topography is more consistent and people more spread out?

From what I've seen even seemingly mild changes in elevation make fairly noticeable differences (I've seen it in central/southern Passaic County and Essex County this winter), where even in the same smaller towns the 'hill' sections have snow accumulation while the 'valley' sections have nothing on the ground. The Watchung and Ramapo Mountains pretty much run through the central portion of the state and I think they definitely affect things like snowfall (as well as the saltwater/brackish water from the Hudson/Newark Bay and south).

OMG, you should go on the weather boards - it's a full blown conspiracy theory there, lol. I think it's just incompetence for the most part.
