January 19th-20th: 1st Call Snow Map

Oh baby 12km NAM snow map! But it looks like major icing still.

Big difference

It never changes to plain rain for just north of NYC and up!

I don't know where you all live specifically, but it still doesn't look good depending on where you are.

Look at the super intense radar, I believe that yellow from NYC north is also ICE....Yikes

Yup cuts right through me, that area has been the bullsleye for a few days now, I am no longer taking this threat lightly, I am thinking we can expect at least 0.5 ice, I am in the 0.5-1.0 area in that band, dark purple, look way to the west well over 1 inch wow! trying to find the map to this on that site, where is it?

Yeah. The ice is a concern. truly hope that doesn’t verify.

3k Nam. Stays all snow for nyc

I find that hard to believe vinny, am waiting for wxbell to load it will show me exact precip types and ice maps.

whats the approximate start and end time for this storm?

I find it hard to believe that I-95 would face an ice/sleet threat like the NAM is depicting, however, I do believe there is the possibility of a more southernly track

No that's not right, NYC stays below freezing but the majority of the precip is sleet and freezing rain.

I found the page with this map, you can actually click your coordinates and see the soundings, I have no clue how to read them but I am guessing theyu will tell the truth if that kind of ice accretion will happen or not. Right now it shows me at 0.41 and NYC at 0.86 which I do not buy, i would imagine the further north of the city you are the more ice, either way anything around 0.5 and above as i said look at videos on youtube so see what kind of damae that does, its bad. On top of that add on that the roads will freeze to a skating rink so not only do you have the bowed falling trees but the inability to drive at all or even walk unless you got spiked boots. I used to have them they were great.

Christ, this is so back and forth it's killing me!! If we end up with nothing I'll be so pissed!

The 3k NAM 850mb temp map.

NAM snowfall totals, taking sleet and freezing rain out of the equation

BTW, I'm still being forecast for basically all rain in CNJ.

3K NAM subtle changes here only 100.mile shift south
 Seeing the CAD better, look at he 32 line, don't see the mid levels here but if warm that is a ton of ice verbatim

I saw that map. Then for fun, I checked the Crapola totals and just about fell outta my seat when I saw over 20".

Im just going to bring this over here from the other thread. It still may not be correct but....

I’m brining this one too:

3km NAM and the ice is not even at its heaviest, this is really bad, this doesnt go out any further but here is the totals at hr 60 and the radar at 60. North of the frz is snow and sleet. Doc looks like your out of the fzr but sleet is in for hudson valley. Whats super bad is the snow comes first its going to stick to trees adding weight then the ice will encase it IF that strip of frz is correct leading to a lot more than scattered power outages IMO.







Here is the snow, kinda stinks but wayyy north cashes in, but this is also not nearly done as shown by radar.

I feel doubly bad for you, sroc. Not only because of the storm, but because you're stuck being the only adult in the room. Unless Frank is around. Or maybe Ray.

Yeah looks like long island may luck out and not get hit by the ice but also miss out on snow, it is hard to swallow, I had to go through it 3x in march and April last winter it sucks.

So ironic. My wife just said the exact opposite. It’s all about perspective isn’t it? Lol
