February 2021 Observations and Discussions

26* here now brrr again.
Lots of black ice tonight from todays storm already.

Freezing drizzle all evening. Everything is a sheet of ice in a nice glaze.

4° and over a foot and a half of snow on the ground for two weeks straight.

Life is good right now.

Yep here too, I do not recall the last time we held onto so much snow, it is melting but very slowly, in the most sun prone areas its less than a foot but in shaded areas its easily a foot i think.

12* for my low with about 16" on OTG maybe upwards of 20" in some areas!
Beautiful scenery

27/11 DP split now - cold!

27/4 here

GSP closed northbound just north of exit 48 for major multi-vehicle accident. Surprised there are folks out now, especially since the precip moved in much earlier today...

Oh no. Hopefully not a prequel of what’s to come around here Tuesday.

what I don't get is why in Texas and now NJ do people try to drive in this? All you need is .01 of ice to make roads terribly slippery. I fear too Frank for Tues wether it in metro area or further north. Haven't seen cp or doc and I know why . right now they sit in the worst spot posdible. But we will see what models do. It seems like predicting ice is even harder than predicting severe tstorm.

25.7* and a little band of sleet and freezing rain mix just passed through, radar looks like it is drying up here in NNJ. Yet the WWA has been extended into more the northern areas.

Just a light glaze here at 27*. Thankfully NNJ was spared the worst of it.

New Hope update: thin glaze on the steps and driveway, a bit crunchy walking across the snow--took the overland route to get the papers; currently 27*

27* icy start already out there from overnight spotty
fz rain

36* and Cloudy here. Still under an Ice Storm Warning.

34* here, storm incoming is a disappointment in my book.

At 47.2 right now. Cold air is on the move though as the initial shot is getting towards Reading, PA. Won't be long.

Cold air is plowing east. 48* here but you can see temps dropping to the west. 30* in State College PA and 22* out by Pittsburgh.

51º right now with winds starting to get a bit gusty.

Come on snowpack, it has to make it a few more hours. Took quite a beating last night and early this morning.

Somehow I think WU is wrong about tomorrow's weather though...

"Tomorrow's temperature is forecast to be NEARLY THE SAME as today."

Yeah, they're probably going to have to fix that. Try 20* colder. lol

You can tell the Cold Front has arrived as the winds are gusty now and the temp has dropped 3 degrees here in the past hour or so.
