  • No migration over New Jersey last night…

    …nor the entire northeast, for that matter, as winds have turned southerly in advance of the approaching cold front. That wasn’t the case for the southeast, though, as the radar does show some impressive migration over that region. Here’s the radar from 7:00pm last night through 5:00am this morning.

Note that there are missing images from the Dover station, as the radar went down for a good chunk of time. Frames are every 1/2 hour. Click […]
