Do you see those periods that separate the sentences? I used the forecast and thread. The town and county used the forecasts.What town and county are using amateur forecasts from a free college football message board to make operations decisions?

Looks like the stuff I used my battery leaf blower on.EPIC! I might have a foot in Readington. Cleared it with a BROOM.
lol I've actually been using that one since I was a kid...Those inches look too close together . Is that an official yardstick?
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..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.
Playing any golf? Oyster Bay, Thistle, The Cats, or Glen Dornoch?I'm currently on the border Beach area of NC-SC but my security cameras are showing decent amount of light fluffy snow.
We did ok, @Knight Shift @knightfan7Cool snow map... really shows the gradient...
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).Playing any golf? Oyster Bay, Thistle, The Cats, or Glen Dornoch?
Amazing. As much as I happy to be away I would just love an event like this.Cool snow map... really shows the gradient...
That was really flicking funny. Well played.Sounds like That may happen at the Melody reunion
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
We talking hair, snow or both?
Ha! I remember that one! It brought the house down in my class. 😂Two mesoscale events with whiffs in one week will source person on meteorology.
Remember in grade school watching one of those films on predicting the weather, where somewhere down south a big hurricane was predicted to his some locale, and at the last minute, after the gentleman in the video had just finished boarding his windows, heard the radio say that the hurricane would miss their locale. He through his hammer at the radio.
Better luck next time, with the guesstimate on snow totals.
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.Ha! I remember that one! It brought the house down in my class. 😂
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…😁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.

yep and thats why it basically disappeared so quicklySnow ratio time. I thought it was 15-20:1, but we actually got 22:1 - damn! Got 11798 cc of snow melted down to just 530 cc of liquid, so the 11.25" was only 0.5" QPF.
not to brag but I always got to go to the AV room to get the devices we neededWe 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.
...did you ever not pay attention, miss the cue and then the picture didn't match up with the audio from the cassette tape?We are probably in the same age range.

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....did you ever not pay attention, miss the cue and then the picture didn't match up with the audio from the cassette tape?

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.No, but I noticed when others screwed up. But that is like proofreading in our office.

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.
That was Feb.11.I still have the Meadowlands program from that night.The storm caused drifts on Route 3.I bailed out of work really early.Feb 13 1983 no? 3-6 the night before and then 18-24?
Feb 13 1983 no? 3-6 the night before and the
Dems some big positive bursts fer sure.
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 snowSo 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.
Can’t proof your own work. Never ends well.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 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.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..

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.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.

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).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?
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.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.
