The Mayor Lindsay storm, or the ENE staller? The Lindsay storm is my first real memory of a full-out blizzard. Complete surprise too.

Ceilometer in NE-DC showing the evolution nicely. Would expect flurries to start appearing in the district shortly.

GDPS and I am off.

Yeah it’s just snow, it’s not that big of a deal. We have all of February and March so it’s not like winter is anywhere near over. I missed a huge storm when I went skiing in Colorado years ago, didn’t really give a shit because I was too busy having a blast skiing with my friends. Now if the Pats lose, I’m setting my house on fire.

Extended RAP rolling and it’s continuing what it was doing at 02z the mix line touches nyc and north shore and drops south

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's gonna take a while to get up here. He is in one of the yellow pockets.

Damn that was quick. Not good

About a lot of snow? Yes.

Lol gives Boston almost double the RDPS, and NYC almost half. Things are still all over the place

You guys are looking better than I thought. Maybe 5-6 before swapping over at 3:45 - 4 am

The resolution on the GFS sucks so it shows these weird blotches on the snowmaps. But I think from here down to DC are basically in the same boat. NYC probably does a couple to few inches better than DC because of closeness to the high.

What do you mean?

Yes if it's mixed it will but slower, I mean even sleet on it's own will accumulate especially on top of a snowpack it'll just be very slow.

No rain yet?

Just popping in to say good luck.

You’ll probably grab an extra inch or two from this storm than me. My southeast move will hurt a bit. I’ve seen the sleet line get pinned just south of the LIE before, which gives me a whole mile of safety…I’ve also seen it stay a mile north for a long time. Will be fun

damn

March 2017 had 7.5 of snow followed by 2.0 of snow sleet mix for a total of 9.5. Sleet snow mix DOES accumulate.

I always assume with the point and click that you can’t just add the high numbers together. I think timing is a factor. In other words, if u got 4” in the first part of the period, you may have already taken a few inches from the second. Nonetheless - I’d take that forecast any day!

Any reports from Roanoke?

This is kinda concerning

27 and nothing. Supposed to rise into the 30s by 2am before precip starts.

It’s here. 13/0

0.1-0.15 ice accretion so far. Trees are glistening and well as the power lines.
