OT: Significant (CNJ) to Major (Along/N of 78) Winter Storm Likely on Tuesday (2/12-13; much less uncertainty on outcome)
- Thread starter RU848789
- Start date
Fully stopped now, and just got a break between calls to check. 7" on the back patio table.
It snowed some, but never had a chance to pile up. It's actually sunny now. For this storm a good "consensus" was 2". As a matter of fact Accuweather still says we are getting 2". We got nothing, zilch, nada.
Logan Twp (Swedesboro). It's a running joke around here. Maybe it has something to do with our location near the Delaware river and bay? Similar to Cape May but to a lesser extent. It just always ends up being 2-3 warmer than forecasted.
Think you whiffed here. Driveway is 80% black with light coating of slush. No more than 1" of accumulation on the patio furniture. Calling this a sloppy bust for Belmar/Manasquan/Wall.
Grass has snow.
Asphalt driveway and concrete walkway slushy mix. Same for the pavers in the back.
TimberTech deck and porches have more snow, less slush.
Still snowing though.
Got a lot brighter out in East Windsor. It seems to be done snowing. Looks like Hamilton got 2” at best. It didn’t really stick either from what I’ve seen. They kept upping the totals but the original 1-3” seemed to be the right one.
Took a look at one in Wall. They did not have an area to do deadlifts with free weights. Not a serious gym.
Is it the hat, grunting or the gallon of water? LOL
An inch or so of wet slush here in South Wall…not enough for the wife to drag out the cross country skis, thank goodness
It’s pretty tiny too.
My sister in law’s Planet Fitness in the Hamptons is much bigger.
But again, not so great. It’s fine for “fitness” and just staying in shape but that’s about it.
cant wear tanks and no dumbells greater than 75 if that might be 55
I have a Toro that's probably residential, but sold through a real farm equipment supplier (not a box store), and it's a warhorse. But I drain the fuel each year and to avoid problems with the carburetor needle valve clogging, etc. Very happy with it. Have a Craftsman rotottiller that has to be 25 years old, treat it the same way you treat your snowblower, always starts right up. Go figure. Think they both have Briggs and Stratton engines.
I'm training to win the 80 plus age group powerlifting championship. The lack of deadlift space was a non-starter. Thought the massage chairs and other questionable equipment was a lame waste of space.
No benches either.
As I said above, it’s fine for when I visit (the one in the Hamptons) but I’d never join.
Maybe when I hit my 60s. But the one near me and @Knight Shift is just way too small. And lacks the basics. But the price is great.
Snow stopped around noon here in Wayne and is already starting to settle. Temperature has shot up to 34° and is rising.
We had about 9 3/4 inches; took a pic around 12:15 and you can see the snow is condensing. Gonna be a bitch to clear the driveway.

Check out Wings fitness on Ocean Rd/35. Not the greatest, but good for the older crowd. You could walk there.
That’s where I got mine, not a regular store.
Some place in Leonardo on 36. It’s lasted a long time.
Since we got half that here, the Hillsborough Deli is sending a shuttle of..ahem..."workers" to get you out of your bind
For now I’ll stick with Jersey Strong.
Good morning crowd and the “view” ain’t too shabby either. If you guys know what I mean.😎
come check out the hboro YMCA. every piece of equip brand new. and dumbells up to 100. 💪💪
As of about 12:15 the snow ended and that last good 45 min band got us to 6.0" as per my lousy pic below, using the yardstick I grew up with, lol. Also added a nice pic of the kids sledding across the street and some pretty snow covered trees.
Not quite the 7.2" I predicted, due to probably missing out on 1.5-2.0" from being in that heinous subsidence hell hole for 3 hours, lol. But Woo-hoo! since my expectations several days ago, when things were trending warm/wet for 95, was maybe an inch or two of slop...although there was certainly some hope for a 10-12" event in the past day or two if things worked out perfectly, but not a surprise that that didn't happen, which is why my prediction was for a more realistic 7.2".
This brings the season total up to a respectable 13.3", still well below where we should be (about 18" through this point in the winter), but way better than last winter's 5.2" here. And there are some more snow chances over the next few weeks.
And this storm is one more data point showing that snow will easily accumulate on all untreated surfaces at 33-34F, as long as there is moderate to high intensity, even after a warm/rainy day. Curious to see what my ratios were (in progress). Guessing pretty low early in the storm with some sleet and pretty wet snow, but probably >10:1 once the snow started falling heavily around sunrise and especially by mid-morning as the snow was fairly fluffy with nice dendrites, but I'll only be able to get one aggregate number.
Give me a road like the one with the crosswalk and snow elsewhere and I think many would be fine with how it ends up.
0 inches here in OCNJ, lots of flooding though, almost came into the garage.
Are you giving us "the finger" in that picture? 😜As of about 12:10
Didn't pan out here in South Wall. Sun is out, and all the snow on driveway melted. Not much on grass either, can see blades pocking through the snow.
Can the "bust" be explained? There was a high degree of confidence we would see 2-4", maybe 3-5" here. Not disappointed, just curious.
Just a few inches to clear here. Temp close to 40, all hard surfaces are clear and starting to dry.
Around 3 '' snowfall in East Brunswick.Toro snow blower started on first shot.Lots of melting happening in the afternoon.Concerned about freezing overnight.
a few peeps I work with said it took them 3 hours to go from philly to Lansdale this morning
