Just brutal. I feel for you. As much as I love it down there even when I’m there in the winter the NJ barrier islands are no place for a snow lover, that’s for sure. lol.

Wow

dual pol shows the r/s line is north of cape may

The mid-levels seem plenty cold to support snow now. I'm shocked you'd be raining.

Low-level warmth. Strong onshore fetch off a warm ocean doesn’t take long.

What's your surface temp?

There, I fixed it for you hahaha it’s all good. There’s nothing I can do about it, and it’s been a hell of a fun track to be a part of. If I have to sacrifice so the 95% of you guys can have fun, then that’s a trade I can live with. Living in NEPA has given me several events that you guys never had, so what’s fair is fair haha however, my disappointment would be fixed if I could manage to trade the snow for a verified forecast told ya

no snow + a verified forecast = a busted forecasted forecast + snow, BUT IS OBVIOUSLY < a verified forecast + snow lmfaoooo

Low-level warmth. Strong onshore fetch off a warm ocean doesn’t take long.

What's your surface temp?

By feel, I’d say probably up to 35-37° after the change, but I’ll confirm momentarily.

Temp on the barrier islands in Cape May County, probably similar to LBI is currently 35* with rain.

Look across PA / NJ and that tight gradient between the dry punch and moisture. That will be the dividing line overnight tonight for good snow making vs. not. Keep an eye on this if you live N/W of PHL. pic.twitter.com/C5I0IBtsHW

18z euro snow map

Remember that this does not include what's already fallen, and honestly, the euro is underdone for some places across NNJ because it's not matching to the current radar very well

Actually under a heavy cell you can sort of make out ahead of this line currently, but wondering how rates are in this approaching line.

I remember people on the South Shore of LI telling me if the winds are from the aren't from the northeast during a storm, then they rain regardless of the antecedent air mass. always thought that was crazy, but probably true.
