Synopsis:

The historic snowstorm has affected much of the tri-state (with the exception of Southern NJ) will continue to meander off the NJ coast today. The jackpot zone for Biblical snow amounts is North and West of the City where 20″-30″ of snow fell in many areas.

Periods of lighter snow is expected today, mainly from the City and West as the moisture and set up with the storm has banding of snow on the Western side of the storm. Warmer air (as expected) pushed into Long Island and coastal Connecticut. Here on and off light rain and drizzle will fall. Winds will be gusty out of the Northwest.

Winter Storm Warnings are up for Much of NJ for today for an additional 1″-3″ of snow in spots. Highs today will be around freezing.

The storm will finally begin to pull away from the NJ coast tonight and Wednesday. Areas of light snow to the West of the City will continue. Any snow showers Wednesday morning should give way to some afternoon sun.

Milder conditions and snowmelt is expected Thursday and Friday. Showers are possible Friday with an approaching front.

Looking ahead it will get colder this weekend and believe it or not all eyes will be on a developing coastal storm for later Sunday into Monday. It is February, which is historically our snowiest month.

Stay Tuned.

Keep it here for a nonsense, no hype forecast.

Today:

On and off light snow from the City and to the West. Drizzle possible East of the City. Windy. Highs around freezing. North winds at 15-30mph with higher gusts.

Tonight:

On and off light snow possible, mainly West. Diminishing winds. Lows in the 20s throughout. Northwest winds at 10-20mph.

Wednesday:

Chance of morning snow showers. Becoming partly sunny. Windy. Highs in the mid 30s.

Thursday:

Mostly sunny. Seasonal . Highs near 40º.

Friday:

Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Milder. Highs in the lower 40s.

Saturday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the upper 30s.

 

Synopsis:

A major snowstorm will affect much of the region into Tuesday. The storm will intensify off the Delaware and NJ through Tuesday and only slowly drift up and off our coastline. This is a classic track for a snowstorm in the metropolitan area (the exception being coastal Central & Southern NJ). The sharp cutoff of the accumulating snow continues to be over Eastern Long Island and coastal NJ where rain and a mix occurred. In this area mixed precipitation will change back to snow overnight.

Winter Storm Warnings are up for the entire tri-state area. The “3rd  Call” possible snow amounts have been posted above. A foot of snow and then some is likely for a majority of the region. Some areas may receive 20″+.  The possible snow amounts will be fine tuned throughout the storm.

The storm will likely be of long duration -over 36 hours , continuing on and off through Tuesday. Coastal flooding will also occur at times of high tide.

The storm will pull away from the East coast Wednesday. The sun will return and it will be time to dig out.

Stay Tuned.

Synopsis:

A major snowstorm will affect much of the region Today into Tuesday. The computer models continue agreement that a storm will intensify off the Delaware and NJ coast today and only slowly drift up and off our coastline through Tuesday. This is a classic track for a snowstorm in the metropolitan area. The sharp cutoff of the accumulating snow continues to be over Eastern Long Island and  coastal NJ. A mix will occur here, even plain rain for a time over Southern NJ. Elsewhere heavy snow is expected.

Winter Storm Warnings are up now for the entire tri-state area. The “3rd  Call” possible snow amounts have been posted above. A foot of snow and then some is likely for a majority of the region. Some areas may receive 20″+.  The possible snow amounts will be fine tuned throughout the storm.

The storm will likely be of long duration -over 36 hours , continuing on and off through Tuesday. The brunt of the storm will be this afternoon and into early tonight. Winds will gusts over 50mph at the coast. Blizzard conditions can be expected during this time. Snowfall rates of 1″-3″/hr are likely. Visibility will be reduced to near zero (whiteout conditions) at times and thunder snow is possible. Coastal flooding will also occur at times of high tide.

Synopsis:

Low pressure over the Ohio Valley will begin to transfer it’s energy to a developing storm over coastal North Carolina tonight. On and off light to moderate snow will continue tonight. A few to several inches of snow is likely by morning depending on your location. Winds will pickup late tonight.

A major snowstorm will affect much of the region Monday into Tuesday. The computer models continue agreement that a storm intensify off the Mid-Atlantic coast on Monday and only slowly drift up and off our coastline through Tuesday.

Snow will overspread most of the region tonight.

Confidence continues to increase that a major snowstorm will affect much of the region Monday and Tuesday. The computer models continue agreement that a storm intensify off the Mid-Atlantic coast on Monday and only slowly drift up and off our coastline through Tuesday. This is a classic track for a snowstorm in the metropolitan area. The sharp cutoff of the accumulating snow continues to be over Eastern Long Island and  coastal NJ.

Synopsis:

An Arctic blast will continue grip the area through Sunday as Canadian high pressure influences the region.

Tonight will be frigid, especially inland. At least the winds will be near calm.

By Sunday, all eyes will turn to a developing system to our South. Early morning sun will give way to increasing and thickening clouds. Light snow may develop toward dark over Central and Southern NJ. Snow should overspread most of the region Sunday night. The exception maybe the Northern counties.

Confidence continues to increase that a snowstorm will affect much of the region Monday and early Tuesday. The computer models continue agreement that a storm will form off the Mid-Atlantic coast on Monday and only slowly drift up and off our coastline through Tuesday. This is a classic track for a snowstorm in the metropolitan area. The sharp cutoff of the accumulating snow continues to be over Eastern Long Island and  coastal NJ. A mix may occur here, even plain rain for a time over Southern NJ. Elsewhere heavy snow is expected.

Winter Storm Warnings and Watches are up now for the entire tri-state area (first map above). The “2nd  Call” possible snow amounts have been posted above. A foot of snow and then some is likely for a majority of the region. These amounts will be fine tuned again Sunday.

The storm will likely be of long duration (over 36 hours) and contain high winds. Winds could gusts over 50mph at the coast. I will not use the “B” word-yet. Coastal flooding is also possible.

Again, this is for Sunday night through Tuesday Morning.

Stay Tuned.

Tonight:

Clear. Frigid. Lows around 20º  in the City, the single digits and teens inland. North winds at 5mph.

Sunday:

Thickening clouds. Light snow possible toward dark South of the City. Highs around 30º. Northeast 5-10mph.

Monday:

Heavy Snow likely. Mix South changing back to snow later in the day. Windy. Highs within a few degrees of freezing.

Tuesday:

Occasional snow all areas. Windy. Highs around 30º.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Windy. Highs in the mid 30s.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Seasonal . Highs in the upper 30s.

 

Synopsis:

An Arctic blast will continue grip the area into the weekend as Canadian high pressure influences the region. Please dress in layers. The layers tend to deaden the air in between and in turn keep your body warm.

Today the winds will abate as the cold high settles over the area. Abundant sunshine is expected with readings remaining below freezing.

By Sunday, all eyes will turn to a developing system to our South. Early morning sun will give way to increasing and thickening clouds. Light snow may develop toward dark over Central and Southern NJ. Snow should overspread most of the region Sunday night. The exception maybe the Northwestern counties.

The potential has increased significantly for snow Monday and early Tuesday. The computer models are in much better agreement that a storm will form off the Mid-Atlantic coast on Monday and only slowly drift up and off our coastline through Tuesday. Could this be a classic snowstorm, yes, if all of the storm remains on it’s projected track. The sharp cutoff of the accumulating snow over the region now looks to be only be over Eastern Long Island and Coastal Ocean county. A mix may occur here. The threat is there for heavy snow for a majority of the region. A Winter Storm Watch is up now for most of the tri-state area (first map above). The “first call” snow amounts have been posted above. 8″-14″ of snow is possible for much of the region. These amounts are not set in stone and most likely will change, but confidence has increased on heavy snow for much of the region.

The storm will likely be of long duration and contain high winds. Winds could gusts over 50mph at the coast. I will not use the “B” word-yet. Coastal flooding is also possible.

Again, this is for Sunday night through Tuesday Morning.

Synopsis:

An Arctic blast will grip the area the next 2 days. Frigid air will continue to funnel in today as Canadian high pressure influences the region. Mainly sunny skies are expected with a biting wind. Please dress in layers. The layers tend to deaden the air in between and in turn keep your body warm.

Tonight will be bitter and the coldest night of the season so far. Thankfully, the winds won’t be as strong.

On Saturday the winds will have abated some as the cold high settles over the region. Abundant sunshine is expected with readings remaining below freezing.

By Sunday, all eyes will turn to a developing system to our South. Sun should give way to increasing afternoon clouds.

The potential continues for snow Monday and Tuesday. It all depends on the track a storm that will be developing off the Mid-Atlantic coast and where the heavy axis of snow sets utp. Could this be a classic snowstorm, yes, if all of the ingredients come together. The latest computer models have a sharp cutoff of the accumulating snow over the Northwestern counties. Remember this is a potential and not a certainty. Some rain is also a possible over Southern sections. The threat is there for this system to be of long duration and contain high winds. We’ll fine tune the forecast and give more details as time goes on.

Synopsis:

Early clouds will give way to some sun today as systems remain weak over the Northeast.

A strengthening storm will move off the Carolina coast Thursday. This will result in increasingly strong winds under a mix of sun and clouds. Readings will remain just above freezing. It will be harsh out by the afternoon.

Arctic high pressure will funnel in the coldest air of the season so far on Friday. Mainly sunny skies are expected with a biting wind.

On Saturday the winds will have abated some as the cold high settles over the region. Abundant sunshine is expected with readings remaining below freezing.

By Sunday, all eyes will turn to a developing system to our South. Sun should give way to increasing afternoon clouds. I am keeping Sunday afternoon snow-free at this time. You will be hearing a lot of chatter about a possible storm into Monday. Take anyone’s forecast that far out with a grain of salt.
