All Activity

Unfortunately ASOS is king, and that liquid is what goes in for the climate. Even if the snow observer reports more (or less).

Man everyone got hammered up and down the coast, philly area got 10-20, delaware 10-20, NJ and NYC basically 15-30, SNE 10-30+ This was basically identical to boxing day for our area, watching a massive miller B blizzard miss us by an ass hair.

I believe Don Surhterland can confirm that we usually see 40 inch winters in pairs. Sometimes they even come in 3.

Took a quick walk up the road to the local elementary school and measured an average of 25" in the field, accounting for compaction we probably finished with around 27-28" or so here in lindenhurst. Gonna go with 27.5" overall. PNS shows similar totals give or take 3" in sw suffolk. All timer for the island

There were signs but they got lost in the hype

Seems to finally be a hint of things starting to lighten up a but which I will gladly take, not sure there's room for much more at this point.

Possibly the best snow of the day. Too bad it looks very shortlived.

Although I see PVD reports snow pack water equiv every 18z…it was 1.5” yesterday and 4.1” at 18z today. So roughly 2.6” of liquid from their 32.8” new at 1pm.

No you take care of after school activities. I don’t need you going all caps on us then seeing .5” of rain when I check the maps.

Somehow it’s still snowing here and honestly picked back up a little bit. Full 24 hours of snow now. 30 hours of precipitation. The band that just won’t die

So basically what PD 2 and 2010 was?

Back to heavier snow now. Wind more NNW.

but we've learned they never do...

Alright somebody give me some good news about the Niño next year. @psuhoffman where did you see early indications of it being east-based? I will say this: If we do not get a MECS or HECS next year, we are probably waiting until the end of the decade when the next niño comes unless we can get a double-dip, no?

Is that 38 from the storm alone or overall depth? If depth, what is your storm total?

Good thing is we’re almost in the NAM false hope range.

close 38.6

We can't either!!!

Can’t believe I’m still getting moderate snow here!! Great storm! .

I use the NWS NOW app it has the NWS forecast and forecast discussions etc. great app!! It is my go to app!! https://www.nwsnow.net/

Located in Syosset / OB Cove area. We usually do very well with snow. Prob got 16-17” based on reports and eyeballing but I see Plainview reports of 23”. .

Didn't 2020-21 go over 40"?

Too bad the water equiv at the ASOS is useless. Hopefully they augment that by melting the w.e. down.

I'll do PBP for you, spare ya the misery

You can see from the study that only 1 in 4 obs is greater than 13:1 in SNE, maybe 1 in 10 greater than 20:1. Even factoring in people who measure once when the storm is done or the next morning with compaction, you're maybe moving the SLR 2 inches, not 5+.
