Yep, when you see ice like that on the Hudson, you are having a SERIOUS winter.I'll see it myself next Wednesday when I'm in Edgewater NJ.

I'm working in edgewater today and weehawken tomorrow. Looks like a glazed donut. My client takes the ferry and he said you can here is breaking ice.

Wait until the end of NEXT week.Those Ferries will have to become ice cutters.

by **Radz** Fri Jan 24, 2014 1:07 pm

Speaking of ice cutters, haven't seen them used on the hudson in a long time- years ago they did it to enable the barges to pass up river...

If anyone is curious about timing, snow should break out around Noon tomorrow. Continue through 8pm.

by **aiannone** Fri Jan 24, 2014 2:40 pm

Frank if the snow is going to continue for that long, 1-2" seems a little low, no?

by **jmanley32** Fri Jan 24, 2014 3:23 pm

Yeah that'd be a darn light snow lol.

Its a very light snow with very limited liquid available through the event unless you get into some heavier banding.

My friend works for the highway dept here on LI, and wants to know if he will be called in for salting tmw and possibly a scrape. Should i tell him yes?

by **NjWeatherGuy** Fri Jan 24, 2014 5:08 pm

Probably just salting, amounts will be fairly low and inconsistent, especially as you go further east. I don't think they plow coatings to an inch do they? I know around here they're way to cheap for that, they only plow with several inches where thick road accumulation becomes an issue.

I agree with this, from the just around the city and east, the Jersey shore, ect. amounts will generally be less than an inch.

He should be ready just in case. Salting will probably be needed. And no, 1-2 inches is not low. That's all we're getting, if that.
