Looking at radar I see a lot of moisture to the east in the ocean this worries me being on the fringe of areas that could do very well.

Probably not.

Ok I just watched weather channel live.The Map says 12-18 but the meteorologist thinks closer to a foot in the city

Ace, what does that mean?

Dunnzoo, is that tilt a little better for Central New Jersey?

by **2004blackwrx** Mon Jan 26, 2015 2:38 pm

BTW that wind direction map is really cool.

by **Frank_Wx** Mon Jan 26, 2015 2:39 pm

If you split NJ in half, the west side is the 6-12, isolated 14 inch amounts. The east side (before NYC) is 12-18 inches, and NYC N&E is 18+

The direction the isobar point usually indicate the direction the low pressure will travel

Snow plows just went up Park Ave for the first time, well, probably since last winter. A nice site to see.

Text form, NWS break down of hours

Tonight: Snow with widespread blowing snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Some thunder is also possible. Low around 22. Wind chill values between 5 and 10. Blustery, with a north wind 21 to 24 mph, with gusts as high as 37 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 9 to 13 inches possible.

Tuesday: Snow with widespread blowing snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Some thunder is also possible. High near 29. Wind chill values between 10 and 15. Blustery, with a north wind 20 to 22 mph, with gusts as high as 36 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 7 to 11 inches possible.

by **Frank_Wx** Mon Jan 26, 2015 2:51 pm

Observation:

Many placed have 1-2 inches already. This is telling me ratios could already be between 15:1 and 20:1. If temps get cold and we see consistent ratios at 20:1, then snow amounts would be higher across the board. I'll have to pay attention to this later today

Boros east of Manhattan/Staten Island and beyond they have back in the 2 - 3ft range, Manhattan and west up to 2 ft
For whatever reason TWC not buying it.
