Heavy Snow This Evening. Mixing by Coast. Rain South…

 

Synopsis:

Happy Hanukkah!

A major storm will affect the region tonight and Thursday morning. A significant snowfall will occur for most of the tri-state area. A mix is also possible at the coast and to the South and into Central NJ. The storm will develop along the Delaware and Cape May coast tonight and move East/Northeast to South of Long Island by morning.

As the storm gets cranking this evening the snow will become heavy at times. 1″-2″ of snow per hour is possible for a few hours. Enough mild air will work in off the ocean for mainly rain for Southern NJ and parts of Monmouth County. The snow may mix with sleet along and to the South of the I-78 corridor in NJ, the immediate NYC vicinity and over Long Island. A lull may also occur later this evening as a bit of dry air works in. Backend snow will move into the region later tonight and into the early morning hours.

2nd call snow amounts have been posted above. Many regions have the potential for over a foot of snow. Much lighter amounts will occur over central NJ where 20 miles may mean the difference between 9″ of snow and no snow. Wind will also be any issue with gusts up to 55mph possible, especially at the coast. Isolated power outages are possible with blowing and drifting of snow. Coastal flooding may occur at times of high tide Thursday morning.

The storm will move offshore Thursday taking the snow with it by late morning through early afternoon. The sun will return.

Friday and Saturday will be more tranquil as Canadian high pressure dominates. Sunny, cold conditions are expected.

Stay Tuned.

Early AM Sun to Thickening Clouds. Late Snow…

 

Synopsis:

Happy Hanukkah!

A major Winter storm is on the way. There are some differences with the models with specifics (but that is expected). A significant snowfall will occur for most of the tri-state area. A mix is also possible at the coast and to the South and into Central NJ. The storm will develop along the Delmarva Peninsula this afternoon and move just offshore of the NJ coast tonight.

Today will start off with some filtered sunshine but clouds will increase and thicken during the day. A swath of light snow will move into the area from Southwest to Northeast during the afternoon. As the storm gets cranking along the coast the snow will become heavy at times during the evening. Enough mild air will work in off the ocean for mainly rain for Southern NJ. The heavy snow may mix with sleet and or freezing rain in the immediate NYC vicinity and over Long Island.

2nd call snow amounts have been posted above. Many regions have the potential for around a foot of snow just North and West of the City. These bands will change as we get closer to the event. Wind will also be any issue with gusts up to 45mph possible, especially at the coast. Isolated power outages are possible with blowing and drifting of snow. Coastal flooding may occur at times of high tide Thursday morning.

The storm will move offshore Thursday taking the snow with it by late morning through early afternoon. The sun will return.

Synopsis:

Happy Hanukkah!

Today will be the calm before the storm. Abundant sunshine is expected as Canadian high pressure influences the region with chilly readings.

Skies will be clear tonight and it will most likely be the coldest night of the season so far.

All of the computer models are in agreement that a storm will affect the region for Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning. There are some differences with the models (but that is expected). The potential continues that a significant snowfall will occur for most of the tri-state area. A mix is also possible at the coast and to the South. The storm will develop along the Delmarva Peninsula Wednesday afternoon and move just offshore of the NJ coast Wednesday Night.

Wednesday will start off with some sunshine but clouds will increase and thicken during the day. A swath of light snow will move into the area from Southwest to Northeast during the afternoon. As the storm gets cranking along the coast the snow will become heavy at times at night. Enough mild air will work in off the ocean for mainly rain for Southern NJ. The heavy snow may mix with sleet and or freezing rain in the immediate NYC vicinity and over Long Island.

1st call snow amounts have been posted above. Many regions have the potential for around a foot of snow. These bands will change as we get closer to the event. Wind will also be any issue with gusts up to 45mph possible, especially at the coast. Isolated power outages are possible. Coastal flooding may occur at times of high tide Thursday morning.

Monday Snow Inland. Rain to Mix at Coast…

 

Synopsis:

Happy Hanukkah!

A wave of low pressure will develop on an offshore front today. A period of rain is likely for areas South and East of the City with wet snow North and West of the City. Even in the City and some coastal areas the rain will go over to wet snow during the afternoon. A light accumulation is possible North and West by late day. Isolated amounts of 3″ are possible over the highest elevations.

Tuesday will be the calm in between systems. Abundant sunshine is expected as Canadian high pressure influences the region. It will be cold.

All of the computer models are in general agreement that a storm will affect the region for Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning. It is quite rare for all of the models this far out to basically have the same output. For this reason the potential continues to increase that a significant snowfall will occur for most of the tri-state area. A mix is also possible at the coast and to the South. It is way too early to call for amounts, just know that if the track remains the same with the models today that a plowable snow and then some will occur. Early call thinking is 6″ to 12″. A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for Wednesday into Thursday morning for parts of NJ. These Watches will be expanded to include areas to the North and East within the next 24 hours.

Thursday morning snow will end and the sun will return.

A tranquil close the the week is expect behind the storm on Friday.

Spring-Like Sunday. Sun & Clouds…
