I'll take Dec-Jan snows over Feb-March any day. That's why 10-11 is still the modern day A+ champ to me.

Bernie Rayo said only a 15% chance of a storm next week. Those who know, know.

Well timing matters as much as snowfall, doesn’t it? If it were happening at 1am that’s very different from SN during the morning commute—especially with the number of clowns that drive past flashing red, tailgate buses, etc. Not saying it’s great, but I get it.

FYI i updated the first post on this topic with the latest interactive map, 48hr snowfall analysis and maps from the 3 local climo sites (OKX, BOX, ALY)

I believe in the GFS! Let's see it lead the way once again.

The question concerns whether Central Park measured when the snow stopped falling or measured at 7 pm when a possible small amount of snow had melted due to the temperature's rising above freezing for several hours. According to OKX's 2 pm PNS, Central Park reported 19.7" at 1 pm. There were several hours of additional measurable precipitation: Although the amount of additional snowfall (probably a few tenths of an inch to just over an inch was relatively small, it would be large in terms of storm ranking implications:

@Chicago Stormstarted the post-Thanksgiving thread, and it was a success. I think only he should start the one for the potential Sunday-Monday storm.

IMBY i'd need measurable snow to beat Sunday lmfao

Jan + 1-2" of sleet on top of 10-12" snowpack + arctic temps afterwards = glacier. This storm was late Feb with snow only and temps 29-31F and now 30s and 40s for highs. The only time I can recall a snow pack holding strong like a glacier in late winter was 2015.

There's still piles from December 14 under the piles from December 27 under the piles from ... etc

Am I sitting here waiting for the 18z GFS for next week? You bet your ass I am

Still 2-3” in full shade, full sun bare to 0 5”, partial sun 1-1.5”

Sarcasm…but the point was, they are the pros, but so are you. So they’re seeing something.

No winter will ever top 09-10 for me but I’m biased haha

They’ll make every effort to get us in tomorrow…due to having two days off already this week.

Unlike a certain musician who whines and moans about getting 20” instead of 30”? Thanks for keeping it real and in perspective

Oh, ok, well that’s news to me. So that wasn’t a SWFE after all?

I think we thought there would a band to the NW. I did. But I think that night I saw the 3K Nam show the western CT stuff and then that firehose into SE MA and RI. That had tremendous front despite lacking big convergence. You also rode the dryslot which steepens lapse rates and aids in that too. I felt pretty good about that area. Actually was hoping it would be more north but it was modeled well.

it's amazing we close schools here for an inch of snow....

metfan patrols the area and arrests those who dont measure immediately after it stops snowing

SW of Leesburg VA we got right at 5", so it appears more than most in the area. Was a really sticky and beautiful snow Sunday night. (we got a bit more after the pic was taken)
