Winter Pattern Has Arrived - Will it Bring Snow?

[BenedictGomez]

BOOM!

This was updated due to the more north and more west track than was expected.

 

[St. Bear]

Snow definitely started earlier than expected. Nothing when I got to the gym at 7, saw on the Weather Channel it was supposed to start around 11, and it was already snowing when I left a little after 8.

No wonder DirecTV wants to dump them.

These storms are depressing. We need a dump up north!!!!

Looking good for Camelback and Blue.

GFS joining the big snow party. Better late than never. This would be about 12" in the Poconos. Overdone? Time will tell.

I was thinking about Camelback or Shawnee for tomorrow night until I saw the temperature with windchill will be in the negatives. So will Thursday night. Might have to bite the bullet though if they get 10" plus, not exactly a common occurence in the Poconos.

Wasted snow. All the snow maps are backwards.

Post of the month. Well, better some snow than no snow.

 

[BenedictGomez]

NWS just issued a mesoscale banding warning.

BRING. IT. ON.

I agree. Been getting shafted up here with all these southern storms.

 

[St. Bear]

Late last night, those 6-8" were 4-6" and the 8-10" were 6-8".

Like they need it. 5M people in gridlock.

A DEVELOPING BAND OF SNOW COVERED PORTIONS OF

GLOUCESTER...KENT...MIDDLESEX...MONMOUTH...NEW
CASTLE...OCEAN...QUEEN ANNE`S...SALEM AND TALBOT COUNTIES AT 1036 AM
EST. THE BAND ITSELF WILL PHYSICALLY MOVE LITTLE.

THE SNOW WILL RAPIDLY DROP VISIBILITIES BELOW LESS THAN ONE MILE
AND UNTREATED ROADWAYS WILL QUICKLY BECOME HAZARDOUS. SNOWFALL RATES
OF AROUND AN INCH PER HOUR ARE LIKELY TO OCCUR. UNNECESSARY
TRAVEL SHOULD BE POSTPONED.

You put the bug in my ear, now I'm looking to hit Shawnee in the morning.

 

[catsup948]

My area 4-6 range possibly. Going to be high ratio stuff here. It's only 9 degrees right now!

Forecasting 10"-14" here in Brooklyn.

 

[Boston Bulldog]

I take it BG's pumped lol. Man Northern NE has been screwed this year. How much did you guys get in the squalls yesterday?

 

[BenedictGomez]

Joe Bastardi absolutely nailed this, he called for a massive I-95 NJ/NYC storm days ago from this, back when no models were suggesting that. And his met-student college kid's forecast from 25 hours ago easily beat NOAA's. Good job for Team Bastardi on this one.

I take it BG's pumped lol.

This storm will have me doing something I rarely do --> ski in the Poconos.

Is there skiing in Brooklyn? If not, this is a miss.
