Yeah I'm about to just ignore this storm for my own mental health...while the historic blizzard part was never quite in play, watching east and northeast get it and probably waking up to barely covered ground is downright depressing and putting me in a bad mood. Was so hoping things would trend wester but...as per typical Nina climo--up, up, and away northeast, smh I HOPE next year's Nino is in a decent enough spot for us to finally get our Miller A. Well...at least I won't have egg on my face. I never believed this storm would produce from start because it's late February and a Nina. Something always happens that time of the calendar like the luck is worse than usual...little snows can work. Big ones don't happen. Still sucks though. Alright vent over...enjoy.

Getting some snow grains mixing in here. Usually means cloud tops are not quite cold enough. Needs more time.

gone from super wet flakes to a much finer snow

Enjoy guys Hope you get blasted tonight

I hope you are right!

About 1/4” Columbia rainfall so far. May the boredom end quickly.

Then you would know better, i saw people posting 4”.

Technically you are correct and this modestly knowledgeable amateur won’t argue semantics over it. The reality, though, is the strength, placement and evolution of such features, whatever they are called, heavily dictate how much falls where. All this, of course, driven by surface & mid level tracks / dynamics which is all driven by upper level dynamics. Regardless of final outcome it’s fun tracking. Enjoy! .

Its official, flakes are falling in Jamison Pa

That's great, grab a bottle of bourbon and watch the snow in the dark.

Starting to snow here. Still have a good 3-6 on the ground still from January. This is getting exciting!

All rain where I am but the rain itself is probably an 80% liquid and 20% solid type concoction.

Go look again…

There could be and probably are many reasons but occlusion too quickly would support shutting off the influx of moisture into the storm but that doesn't really look to be the case. Another possibility is with how quickly the storm is strengthening, the best fronto is collapsing south and east closer to the low but that doesn't seem to be the case either because the front just simply dies over us and we seem to be sort of smoking subsidence. I am still leaning towards this being completely overstated but if this happens we can't say we're surprised by it lol

HRRR is insane for coastal areas. This is tomorrow morning with hours to go. Look at the eye off the coast.

Let the chips fall where they may… My trusty handbook says it’s now casting time!

I don't think that's correct. See below.

Hoping HRRR and RAP are right but even there high ends seem to be lower than NWS forecasts. moderate snow - 31 - starting to stick on all surfaces

ya was further east but heading north now

Unofficially, about 1 inch at Central Park Feb 22, 12:51 pm 32 30 92 22 ENE 15G24 0.75 Lt snow, Mist OVC007 1016.20 29.86 30.03 0.02 0.10 34 32

I'm hoping.

22,236 miles. Bitch to service.

It's where I grew up so I'm kind of rooting for them lol right near the beaches sometimes it's hard to get snow also-all right no more South Jersey reports lol does sound like the low pressure is getting wound up pretty fast and closer to the coast I'm reading on the other thread so that'could bear well for us with the pinwheel effect later on tonight

Mood right now, haha
