Windy, with a southwest wind 37 to 42 mph increasing to 43 to 48 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 65 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. Total daytime snow accumulation of 14 to 20 inches possible.

Wow, this even beats the lake effect snows in upstate NY.

I love the descriptions, "The snow could be heavy at times" , yeah 33-39 inches overnight, I'm thinking it may be heavy at times too, like the whole time.

It's been awhile since my Birthday will be this warm, but hey, I'll take it. Right now the whole east coast is going through it.

55 years ago today!!!!

Clouds were lowering and thickening all morning with the fading sun peaking through.Up to 11 AM, I could see in the far NW (I was in Fort Lee NJ at the time) some blue sky.By 3 PM, all the blue filled in NW and the sun disappeared into the grey clouds.Temp was around 33.The only way you got information then was the news on the radio every 30 minutes.Mets were calling for no more than 4 inches total the afternoon of the 11th.

At 3:30 PM, the first flakes started to fall.Light to moderate snow fell until around 8 PM with2 or 3 inches on the ground.All hell broke loose after 10 PM, moderate to heavy snow and wind increasing all night where the howling woke me up a few times.By morning, over 20 inches on the ground with 3 to 4 foot drifts on the NE side of our house.Snow stopped around 10 AM, but the clearing brought high NW winds, blowing and drifting, and temps falling to single digits that night.This was Monday morning and school was cancelled that day AND Tuesday (cue the Hallelujia Chorus,LOL).

All in all, a magnificent snowstorm and the first one to get me hooked at age 10 on major snowstorms, an addiction that has me on this website at age 65.

Good read:

[Frank_Wx]

I'm putting this in banter because it's probably too good to be true. Mid level split of PV according to GFS. Wish it were under 200 hours.

[NjWeatherGuy]

GFS at the surface looks hideous to me, I just keep seeing that ridge pumping and a progressive pattern with little storm chances in the east besides maybe around the 18th overrunning event, interesting...

[jmanley32]

Ha a xmas eve blizzard screaming 120mph 850mb winds and backend snow. Imagine!

[Frank_Wx]

The closest thing we'll get to snow is the snow falling on the forum.

[billg315]

Well at least i'm shaping up to have a very low electric bill for this month.
