We got a brief break from the snow, but it didn’t last for
long…
I had talked all week long about the possibility of this
storm turning further up the coast than what the models originally showed. The
snow has indeed made it up the coast, with the moderate snow as far north as
Southern New Jersey, Southeastern Pennsylvania, and the Southern Coast of Long
Island.
My friend in North Carolina got 2 inches of snow the night
before last and is getting nearly a foot of snow this morning and last night.
His workplace put him up in a hotel so he would not have to worry about making
it into work this morning and he just told me that the hotel has lost power.
This is near Raleigh Durham, NC.
As for us today, we should just have a bit of light snow or
flurries that could accumulate to a dusting to a half of an inch or so in some
places, with up to an inch possible in Central New Jersey and on Eastern Long
Island.
Moving forward, a cold font will stall out just to our south
and low pressure areas will ride along this front, with the next storm approaching
on Sunday, causing snow to develop around 1-2 pm and continuing through Sunday
night, ending on Monday morning between about 8 am and 10 am with 1-3 inches of accumulation likely. The high will be
in the mid 30’s on Monday.
Tuesday another storm will approach, causing snow to develop
in the late morning or early afternoon, then possibly mixing with or changing
to sleet and freezing rain at night.
Wednesday we will have snow, sleet, freezing rain, or rain
depending on whether this front remains to our south or moves slightly to our
north.
Thursday the front will likely be back to our south and
another storm system will approach, bringing another chance for snow, ending on
Friday morning.
Then Saturday and Sunday we will have another chance of snow
as yet one more storm system may ride along the front.
Then finally, it appears that a warm-up is on the horizon,
with high temperatures reaching the low 40’s early the following week with a
chance of rain or snow next Tuesday and Wednesday.
