Synopsis:
A storm developing off the North Carolina will move up and off our coast today. This should result in a moderate to signifiant snowfall on Super Bowl Sunday for most areas. The exception being areas to the North and West and along the South Jersey shore. The storm, unlike it’s predecessor is a quick hitter. The snow will begin around dawn or shortly thereafter. Rain may fall at the onset over parts of central and Southern NJ, but it will go over to snow. The snow will taper off from Southwest to Northeast during the afternoon. A period of heavy snow is possible for a couple hours either side of midday along and to the East of the I-95 corridor.
The last call snow amounts are posted. Yes, a plowable snow is expected for most with the jackpot amounts over Eastern Long Island and Southeastern Conncecticut. This area will be in the heaviest banding of snow pivoting around the storm. The amounts have been lowered North and West as this area will most likely be out of the heavier banding of precipitation.
Skies will clear tonight and all readings will be below freezing.
Bright and cold conditions will greet us for the beginning of the week.
Another system developing to our West will move our way Tuesday with a period of light snow or mixed precipitation.
Looking down the pike it could get quite active late week as Arctic air will be just to our North and plenty of moisture will be to our South. How this all plays remains to be seen.
Stay Tuned.
