EAST COAST STORM EFFECTS CONTINUE TODAY STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS WITH GUSTS TO 40 MPH THURSDAY AND FRIDAY INTERMITTENT SNOW AND RAIN SHOWERS TODAY MOSTLY ALONG THE COAST, STEADIER SNOW DEVELOPS TONIGHT WITH ACCUMULATIONS LIKELY IN NORTHERN NJ THURSDAY - MARCH 7TH Day 2 of the Nor'easter, but the worst of the wind is behind us. The highest tidal departure of the storm occurred last night and the winds backing from east to north during the afternoon yesterday really helped in keeping the coastal flooding to moderate levels. Keep in mind that we still have four more high tides from late this afternoon through early Saturday morning that will cause coastal street flooding in the normal flood prone areas. This morning, bands of snow have backed westward and snow is falling along the immediate NJ coast. Off and on snow and rain showers will be around for most of the day, particularly along the coast but no accumulation is expected. Tonight, additional jet stream energy will be dropping southeast from Canada and move offshore to our south eventually phasing with the offshore coastal storm. This will cause a steadier snow to develop throughout much of the area by late this evening and continue into Friday morning. Snow accumulations of 1 to 4 inches of snow are expected in north of I-78, with 1 to 2 inches possible between I-78 and I-195 including Monmouth County. In southern NJ, south of I-195, an inch or less of snow. The snow will taper off on Friday morning and windy conditions will continue along with spotty rain showers. On Saturday, a great ball of warm light will appear in the sky, which in case you forgot is called the sun, along with high temperatures near 50. In Tuesday's forecast, I mentioned the possibility of two precipitation maximums with the storm, one in the DC area and one in eastern New England. This certainly was the case yesterday as all of the snow was confined to interior Virginia west of DC and Richmond. Although the ability to generate wind was great, the storm's ability to generate lift weakened considerably and it was just a bit too far offshore so the heavier precipitation remained offshore. There was no accumulating snow from the storm anywhere in NJ, nor any points north and east of DC for that matter. The snow is now moving on shore in eastern New England where heavy snow amounts are expected. © Tri-State Storm Watch. All rights reserved.
