Re: JAN 3rd Storm: I-84 First Snow of 2021

Fairly close range now and the NAM is completely unimpressed with this storm. Weak and sheared out mess with absolutely no dynamics for the eastern areas. It's very different than Euro at this time for the eastern areas particularly LI and SNE.

According to that I may see 1-4 inches, is that right? I do not think it will be cold enough.

by **Frank_Wx** Sun Jan 03, 2021 1:21 am

Sticking with my call of 4-6 inches for I-84 and north. 2-4 inches just S-SW of there and 1-3 inches across NW NJ. NYC Metro including NE NJ and LI up to one inch.

Up here it looks like temps are going to hover at 32 daytime. It will be interesting to see what comes down

by **heehaw453** Sun Jan 03, 2021 8:01 am

Snow and sleet mixture. 31.5 ground is coated including street.

850s are above freezing. 925s are below.

The Para GFS 06Z run is spot on with the setup so far. Let's see.

by **heehaw453** Sun Jan 03, 2021 8:15 am

You can clearly see a CAD signature. If the track remains favorable I expect more frozen than liquid out of this. I78 on northward. Doesn't mean there won't be mixing there, but just not rain per se.

Snowing now in Bloomfield, temp 34.

by **brownie** Sun Jan 03, 2021 9:40 am

Snowing!! 32°. Big flakes. Sticking to everything, even though it’s only been snowing for 5-10 minutes!

by **weatherwatchermom** Sun Jan 03, 2021 9:42 am

35* and sleeting...you can hear the pinging. Winds out of the north at 12 mph Stay safe everyone!!

by **heehaw453** Sun Jan 03, 2021 9:51 am

Was coming down nicely and has now stopped. Big dendrites. Dropped about 3/4".

by **frank 638** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:05 am

Light sleet by me

by **jmanley32** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:16 am

Light sleet and snow, no stickage.

by **phil155** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:16 am

Icy mess but looking at radar it looks like it should end soon. Should we expect precip to fill in and start again later on

by **jmanley32** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:18 am

Wow radar is pathetic, has one small strip of snow from south to north and thats it, not even width of NJ.

by **Dunnzoo** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:18 am

33* and snow, nice size flakes.

by **Vinnydula** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:26 am

Snowing nicely here. Sicking To everything

by **dkodgis** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:44 am

The snow has arrived in northern Orange county. Light flurries at 10:30 am

That was not the storm. It was enhanced precip ahead of the main event.

by **aiannone** Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:57 am

Moderate sleet mixed with some flakes here on the north shore. Damn..

by **docstox12** Sun Jan 03, 2021 11:08 am

Snow started about an hour ago, have around 1/2 inch and light snow now.

by **brownie** Sun Jan 03, 2021 11:08 am

Snow has stopped. It’s not doing anything right now. I got 1/2 inch on my deck. I’ll take it! Hoping for more later, but not optimistic with temps supposed to rise.

Still 32° though.
