What happened

The episode as NWS PHI wrote it up.

In Lakewood (Ocean County), a 66-year-old woman died from hypothermia while walking home early on the 15th. Many municipalities declared code blues. Plumbers were swamped with frozen pipe calls. Some say it was the busiest they have been in over 20 years. Shelters were full. Even oil lines were freezing. Some homes ran out of heating oil.

Lowest hourly wind chill factors included 15 degrees below zero in Atlantic City (Atlantic County) and Millville (Cumberland County), 14 degrees below zero in Toms River (Ocean County), 13 degrees below zero in Trenton (Mercer County), 12 degrees below zero in Lumberton (Burlington County) and Belmar (Monmouth County) and 11 degrees below zero in Wildwood (Cape May County). Morning low temperatures (all above zero) included 8 degrees in Atlantic City (Atlantic County), Lumberton (Burlington County), Trenton (Mercer County) and Millivlle (Cumberland County), 9 degrees in Toms River (Ocean County) and 10 degrees in Somerville (Somerset County), Sussex (Sussex County) and Wildwood (Cape May County).

The unseasonably cold arctic air mass and low wind chill factors were caused by the strong to high northwest wind flow between an extremely intense low pressure system south of New England and an arctic high pressure system over the upper Great Lakes. This combination returned the night of the 15th.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Feb 14, 10:24 PM EST, 5 hours 6 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 14, 10:24 PM EST, 5 hours 6 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
1024 PM EST SAT FEB 14 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL RAPIDLY INTENSIFY JUST TO OUR EAST AS IT THEN
TRACKS TO THE OFFSHORE WATERS OF NEW ENGLAND THROUGH SUNDAY. THE
STORM CENTER IS EXPECTED TO REACH NOVA SCOTIA ON SUNDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED TO BUILD FROM THE GREAT LAKES ON SUNDAY
NIGHT TO THE NORTHEASTERN STATES FOR MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. LOW
PRESSURE IS THEN FORECAST TO BE LOCATED OVER THE WATERS OFF THE
CAROLINAS ON TUESDAY, BEFORE PASSING WELL TO OUR SOUTHEAST AND EAST
AND STRENGTHENING TUESDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER ARCTIC FRONT IS EXPECTED
TO ARRIVE ON WEDNESDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE FOLLOWING FOR THE END OF
THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO ORGANIZE AND INTENSITY NOW JUST EAST OF
OUR ATLANTIC COAST. A RATHER DYNAMIC SITUATION UNFOLDED EARLIER
WHICH RESULTED IN BANDING FEATURES FROM NEAR THE PHILADELPHIA
METRO ON SOUTH AND EASTWARD. WE RECEIVED SOME REPORTS OF 2-4
INCHES OF SNOW WITHIN ABOUT AN HOUR FROM NORTHERN DELAWARE TO
SALEM, CUMBERLAND, GLOUCESTER AND CAMDEN COUNTIES. THIS FEATURE
SHIFTED EASTWARD AND IS NOW CLEARING THE COAST. FARTHER WEST AND
NORTH, A SNOW SQUALL MOVED THROUGH WITH EVEN SOME LIGHTNING
REPORTED. THE WATER VAPOR SHOWS PLENTY OF SHORT WAVE ENERGY AND
ALSO WIND ENERGY DIVING INTO THE MID ATLANTIC, WHICH WILL RAPIDLY
INTENSITY THE SURFACE LOW AS IT TRACKS OFFSHORE. THE RAP AND HRRR
GUIDANCE SUGGESTING SOME WRAPAROUND SNOWS LINGER FOR PORTIONS OF
THE REGION, AND WE ARE SEEING SOME REDEVELOPMENT TAKING PLACE WEST
OF PHILADELPHIA AS OF 03Z. THEREFORE, ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO THE
FORECAST AND THE STORM TOTAL SNOW MAP WAS RE-POSTED TO GET THE
IDEA ON WHAT IS EXPECTED. THE AMOUNTS HAVE VARIED GIVEN THE
EARLIER BANDING THAT TOOK PLACE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AREAS.

WE WILL MAINTAIN THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR MUCH OF THE AREA
WITH SOME MAINLY LIGHT ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL EXPECTED, BUT MAINLY
BECAUSE OF STRONG WINDS RESULTING IN BLOWING SNOW WITH
SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED VISIBILITIES. ALSO, TEMPERATURES WILL BE
PLUMMETING OVERNIGHT.

DUE TO THE RAPIDLY INTENSIFYING STORM AND LOTS OF WIND ENERGY
ALOFT, NORTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE WITH GUSTS IN THE 50 TO 60
MPH RANGE AFTER 3 AM OR SO. THIS WILL BE ABOUT THE TIME WHEN THE
AXIS OF THE MID-LEVEL TROUGH MOVES THROUGH, AND ONCE THAT
HAPPENS, COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL BEGIN IN EARNEST, AND THE
TEMPERATURE WILL START A FREE-FALL INTO THE SINGLE
DIGITS...ESPECIALLY UP NORTH. THE COMBINATION OF VERY STRONG WINDS
AND EXTREMELY COLD TEMPERATURES WILL PRODUCE WIND CHILL VALUES
LESS THAN (COLDER THAN) MINUS 20 DEGREE F IN OUR NORTHERN TIER
COUNTIES...SO A WIND CHILL WARNING IS IN EFFECT FOR THOSE AREAS
STARTING EARLY SUNDAY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
WINDY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY...WITH EXTREMELY
WINDY CONDITIONS THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS. GUSTS IN THE 50 TO 60
MPH RANGE ARE EXPECTED...WITH A FEW ISOLATED HIGHER GUSTS
POSSIBLE. THE BIG CONCERN IS POWER OUTAGES DUE TO FALLING LIMBS ON
WIRES COMBINED WITH EXTREMELY COLD TEMPERATURES. THIS IS
POTENTIALLY A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. DAYTIME HEATING UNDER
CLEAR SKIES WON/T HELP TEMPERATURES RECOVER MUCH FROM THEIR
OVERNIGHT LOWS GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE COLD AIR ADVECTION. HIGHS
IN THE NORTH WON'T GET OUT OF THE SINGLE DIGITS...AND HIGHS IN THE
SOUTH WILL ONLY BE IN THE TEENS. WIND CHILL WARNINGS ARE POSTED
FOR THE FAR NORTH...WITH WIND CHILL ADVISORIES POSTED FOR MOST
OTHER AREAS TO THE SOUTH LATER IN THE DAY AS TEMPERATURES START TO
FALL ONCE THE SUN STARTS TO SET. HIGH WIND WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT
THE ENTIRE CWA INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
SUBSIDE SOMEWHAT DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS AND SHOULDN/T BE AS
SEVERE BY LATE IN THE DAY. WITH THE STRONG WINDS...BLOWING SNOW
WILL CONTINUE.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE STORM SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BE LOCATED OVER NOVA SCOTIA ON
SUNDAY NIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY BUILDS TOWARD OUR REGION FROM
THE GREAT LAKES. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL CONTINUE TO LESSEN
SLOWLY ON SUNDAY NIGHT IN OUR REGION AND MORE MARKEDLY ON MONDAY.
AS A RESULT, IT SHOULD REMAIN BRISK ON SUNDAY NIGHT EVEN AS WIND
SPEEDS DIMINISH GRADUALLY. HOWEVER, THE DECREASE IN WIND SPEEDS
WILL LIKELY BE QUITE NOTICEABLE ON MONDAY.

THE WIND SHOULD REMAIN STRONG ENOUGH AND TEMPERATURES LOW ENOUGH
ON SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING TO WARRANT THE CONTINUATION OF
A WIND CHILL WARNING FOR THE POCONOS AND FOR SUSSEX COUNTY, NEW
JERSEY AND A WIND CHILL ADVISORY ELSEWHERE IN OUR FORECAST AREA.
BOTH THE WARNING AND THE ADVISORY WILL RUN UNTIL 1100 AM MONDAY.

MINIMUM TEMPERATURES ARE ANTICIPATED TO RANGE FROM AROUND -10 TO
-15 IN THE POCONOS TO AROUND +5 IN SOUTHERN DELAWARE EARLY ON
MONDAY MORNING. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT PHILADELPHIA WILL RECORD ITS
FIRST SUB ZERO TEMPERATURE SINCE JANUARY 19, 1994. IT WILL BE
CLOSE.

THE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO BUILD ACROSS OUR REGION
ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY AND IT SHOULD MODIFY GRADUALLY. HIGHS ARE
EXPECTED TO BE MAINLY IN THE TEENS AND LOWER 20S ON MONDAY WITH
LOWS MOSTLY IN THE SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE ZERO ON MONDAY NIGHT.
MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 20S AND LOWER 30S
ON TUESDAY.

CLOUDS SHOULD BE ON THE INCREASE ON TUESDAY AS THE HIGH LIFTS TO
OUR NORTHEAST. THERE REMAIN SOME DIFFERENCES IN THE MODEL
SOLUTIONS REGARDING THE LOW OR LOWS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE OFF
THE CAROLINA COAST AROUND TUESDAY BEFORE PASSING TO OUR SOUTHEAST
AND EAST. THE LATEST CONSENSUS SEEMS TO SUGGEST THAT THE BEST
CHANCE FOR ANY SNOW IS FROM LATE TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT WITH
THE BETTER POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW ON THE COASTAL PLAIN.
HOWEVER, IT REMAINS A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST AND IT WILL LIKELY
BE ADJUSTED AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE EVENT.

THERE REMAINS FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE ARRIVAL OF ANOTHER
ARCTIC FRONT ON WEDNESDAY. SNOW SHOWERS OR SNOW SQUALLS ARE
POSSIBLE WITH THE FRONT ALONG WITH A DEVELOPING BRISK NORTHWEST
WIND IN ITS WAKE FOR LATE WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE
LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE IS NOT SUGGESTING WIND SPEEDS NEARLY AS
STRONG AS THOSE EXPECTED FOR TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY. NEVERTHELESS, WE
MAY HAVE ANOTHER ROUND OF HAZARDOUS WIND CHILL VALUES FROM
WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING.

COLD HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO FOLLOW FOR THURSDAY INTO
SATURDAY. OUR NEXT AREA OF PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO APPROACH
FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND WEST NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

WILL THEN TAPER OFF THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SOME
UNCERTAINTY DOES EXIST INTO THE EXTEND OF CLOUD COVER ON SUNDAY
WITH A CLEARING TREND BY THE END OF THE DAY.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
THE VERY STRONG NORTHWESTERLY WIND THAT IS EXPECTED FOR TONIGHT
INTO SUNDAY WILL PUSH WATER AWAY FROM THE COASTS OF NEW JERSEY AND
DELAWARE. LOW WATER LEVELS ARE ANTICIPATED AND THEY HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO AFFECT NAVIGATION. THE GREATEST IMPACT IS EXPECTED TO
BE ON THE TIDAL PORTION OF THE DELAWARE RIVER. WATERS LEVELS THERE
MAY FALL TO -2.5 TO -3.5 FEET MEAN LOWER LOW WATER ON SUNDAY
AFTERNOON BASED ON THE LATEST GUIDANCE. WHILE CONDITIONS MAY FALL
JUST SHORT OF THE CRITERION FOR A LOW WATER ADVISORY ALONG THE
COAST AND ON DELAWARE BAY, A SPECIAL STATEMENT MAY BE NEEDED FOR
THE TIDAL DELAWARE RIVER FOR THE LOW TIDE CYCLES ON SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND AGAIN ON SUNDAY NIGHT. THE CRITERION FOR A LOW WATER
ADVISORY/SPECIAL STATEMENT IS AN EXPECTED WATER LEVEL OF -1.8 FEET
OR LESS MEAN LOWER LOW WATER.
