Nah we getting March 29th to remember. Superstorm 93 redux with 2016 characteristics due to the strat warming

Yes, we all would have. Someday again, it will happen…

One more for you:

Imagine 70s. Open windows, birds singing....

3 hour delay for us…they will decide by 8 am whether to stick with that, or cancel altogether.

Thank you!

Oh I love these

Is this where we are tracking 70s?

Yes. It seems to be off.

Sorry if this has already been brought up, but so many posts, it's hard to read them all! So w/ no augmented ASOS snow observations at PVD 05-10z and it appears at least a foot fell during that time, how does that work? Going by just SOG is an issue in this case b/c of the blowing and drifting, never mind settling as temps where 31-32 F during this time. And LEQ for PVD CLI on 2/23 .58" and 35.5" of snow?? Same w/ BOS .47" w/ 17.1" of snow?? This is a *major* problem and significant impact to the climate record. Also, we are drought conditions currently in the NEUS, but are we really or it is as bad as it is shown on the U.S. Drought Monitor? LGA/JFK/EWR/PHL/BWI do not have this snow/LEQ issue. Same for many other ASOS climate sites around the country.

Yeah, but if it ended up going 50-100 miles northwest like you said, would PVD still have broken 1978's record? I'm imagining a situation like Feb 2013 where the firehose sets up over CT instead of SEMA/RI. Don't get me wrong, Feb 2013 was still great around here, but it wasn't historic like what CT saw. So I guess in a way this system was like a reverse of Feb 2013 where SEMA/RI got the goods instead. Even with April 1997, Worcester got insane amounts, and Boston to a lesser degree. PVD still got 18 inches but it doesn't hold a candle to what Worcester got. So if this system had come further northwest would it have been a 1978 redux for the whole area including PVD, or more like a Feb 2013/April 1997 situation where areas north and west get the goods and PVD gets like 12-18? This one didn't stall like 1978 did so I just don't see how it could've been an all-timer for the entire area, even if it came further north.

Yo @stormtracker is this somebody you know? Hahahahaha (Forgive me if this is close to political but it was too good not to share)

Franklin do you know how much qpf Centeal Park got from the blizzard?

The Monday and Tuesday system continues to be a situation to watch as the current trends with this system points to an impactful late winter wet snow impact or potentially heavy rainfall. A further south track will mean all snow expected and a northerly track will make for more of a rainfall threat. Some solutions within the ensembles suggest a northern track where its too far north and precip is much less. Certainly a system that needs some monitoring.

Resulting in the typical cold and rainy spring.

I can't wait to see wsw initiated in Shenandoah while we get .02" QPF

Heading up to the cabin Thursday. Looks like wind swept winter up there still.

The precipitation can't be right. Better than 25:1 ratios for the entire month assuming none of the 1.66" was rain.

I'll take all the liquid we can get to help with these droughts. I know this storm helped a great bit. But more work needs to be done

I’d like to see what @powderfreakgets for liquid equivalent in a core sample. Until Friday night, there just hadn’t been much for qpf in the pack. Not that a warm Rainer wouldn’t cause issues, especially with the amount of ice on the rivers but I think we have some liquid storage capacity right now.

This solution looks like the typical Southern Maryland white rain so I expect it should verify.

18z Euro brings a coating to many of us by tomorrow am with the overnight Clipper.

Yeah. I don’t see anything spitting out 4” in SNE other than in far NW Mass

I drove around a bit today. Main roads are fully cleared. Some of the secondary roads aren't always wide enough for 2-way traffic, but passable. Whatever it is they were trying to do in the vicinity of the Ronkonkoma LIRR station around 1 pm was utter chaos, absolute amateur madness. Also defies imagination that they would plow Union Ave last. It's like a city Avenue. I drove from Sunrise Highway up to 25A in Stony Brook on Nichols Rd. There was more snow near Bellport than in Stony Brook but it's hard to gage how much from the car on a sunny late winter day.
