I was just outside and man conditions are pretty nasty. Snow blown right at you by the wind with the wind chill down into the teens. I started to lose feeling in my gloveless camera hand within about 5 minutes.

Just noticed something.. I was wondering why Ohio & West Virginia was reporting Ice so far inland there away from the storm. Look at the temps at 5000'! The Upper Low and storm is pulling some warm air all the way there. WOW!


Note the pocket above freezing in WV. So warm air is mixing in at the mid levels. Basically if this level is above freezing you wont get snow at the surface


Should change to all snow as soon as the Low starts pulling more north. Cool stuff

Not sure, but Delaware is having a blizzard right now. It's not included in the poll.

I'm in the dark blue now, but temps at the surface are still very warm. Upper 40s here.

I have family driving from Kentucky down to East Tennessee this afternoon / evening and they’re doing just 30 mph on the interstate at times, and went of onto highways some of the way. Super slow going for the snow that’s falling over there. Rain now here in the Triangle region of NC and above freezing.

That 850mb freezing line went from South of Atlantic City to north of Allentown in just 3 hours.

Philly has changedover, NYC changing now as well as coastal CT.


Strong Low Level Jet



Still snow here but Im next

Raining on Long Island and I got this here. Always fun to see. Should be changing any minute now.


0.7" of snow melted to 0.09" liquid which is a heavy wet 8:1 ratio

Drizzling out now. Looks like some of that moisture from the core of that low made it down to where I am (NWS was saying it'd stay north). It's all liquid, though. Temps at the surface are around 41 F.

4.8" as of 11pm. Had a bit of sleet, getting past the dry slot now, waiting on the deformation band
