Snow Forecast Wednesday 02072018

Here is my first early call on Snow for later Wednesday into Wednesday night. There is a bit more cold air this time around than on Sunday with high pressure to the north at least at the start. This system is similar to Sunday’s system in some ways. Low pressure will be moving very close to the coast. The lack of  even a minimal amount of blocking makes this mostly a rain event for the coast but just inland there will be a slushy accumulation. Higher amounts are likely in Northwest New Jersey and in the Hudson Valley and Connecticut north of Route 84 where 3 to 6 inches could accumulate. Highest amounts will be in Northeast Pennsylvania and in the Catskills northward much like Sunday.

GFS MODEL WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY CLICK TO ANIMATE

You can see on the GFS map above the high to the north is pressing southward with cold air but the high retreats as the wave tracks northeastward with no redevelopment forecast. That would trap the cold air further south if the high were to hold in a bit longer but as stated earlier that high weakens and moves out.

Meanwhile skies are clear overhead and we have a clear night ahead of us with lows in the teens to low 20s in most areas. The radar is quiet and will remains so through Tuesday with sunshine and highs in the 30s to near or just over 40 in some areas across Southern New Jersey and Southeastern Pennsylvania.

REGIONAL RADAR

storm free

Clouds will be rolling in later Tuesday night with snow arriving Wednesday morning and then beginning a slow transition to a mix and then to rain from south to north later Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday night. How far north that mixing line gets will determine whether we finish on the low end of snow totals or on the high end. Thursday looks dry with some sunshine and highs in the 30s.
