Scroll through the thread from the beginning. You’ve unpinned it twice and @WxUSAF keeps re-pinning it.

We do uh, have a rather big storm on our hands. It'll rival the Blizzard of '78, even stronger. 35, even 40" on the east facing runways of TF Green Airport.

Not exactly a blockbuster here, but it was a legit blizzard and hard to measure. With measurements ranging from 10.5” to 13.5”, I’m calling it 12”. With the overall pack near 2’, I can’t complain too much.

If they were measuring actual snowfall properly, that 14 might have been correct. I'm too lazy to do that, so i just measure snow depth at the end. I am just going with 10 since I wasn't here until 4pm today, and on my security cam shots that looks about right.

Yep. So we need this one to deliver...neutrals don't seem to work anymore either (unless the PDO has been the issue...that SEEMS to finally be relaxing after 8-9 years of wreaking havoc)

My family got smoked in East Islip/Islip Terrace. Easily over 2'. Amazing the bulk of that fell in 12 hours too. What a storm for Long Island.

CP meaaured 1.89 liquid. Impressive storm. I can't recall when the 19.7 total was reported, but 0.15 liquid was reported from 1 PM to 4 PM and 0.09 liquid from 2 PM to 4 PM CP should definitely be over 20...

NYC schools never closed til the 2/11/94 debacle. After that they more or less close for any major snow event.

Thanks man, don't worry. All models will go to a strung out POS quickly now that there's a thread... so I'll end up deleting this and starting a new one.

Huh?

Blizzard of 96. I think 3 days. Only snow days of my life. That was a way more impactful storm though, and the transit system didn't hold up nearly as well as now. A lot of current policies stem from avoiding that happening again. Also I suspect the Central Park total for that storm was undercounted. Or they just avoiding some heavy banding. Because that didn't look or feel like 20" of snow. A lot of places must of been 30"

Super low impact storm in the city. Sidewalks and roads 100% clear.

Good luck to the interior/N and W crew. Y'all need a storm. I'm burned out. Done with it. Legit ready for Spring.

Are @stormtracker and @WxUSAF feuding?

Some of the best snowgrowth too with that last band, maybe because winds have subsided Let's see if remnant fronto can congeal to give us another moderate+ band 20z HRRR has snow falling until 8-9pm Brookline schools closed Tuesday

12/5 - 1.5” 12/14 - 0.7” 1/25 - 9.6” 2/6 - 0.4 2/22/23 - 3.3” Total - 15.5”

All those emergency managers seem to be slightly slant sticking...COCORAHS guy in Easton is obviously not a weenie In all honesty the mesonet stations probably give a good approximation Yeah talked with my DE coworkers 12 to 16" trees down everywhere, same in Salisbury.

19.5" here on the Deep River/Chester, CT line. Plus, another inch of ice in my Irish whiskey. So, over 20" total for this storm.

A paultry 2". Congrats on the big winners Sent from my SM-S921U using Tapatalk

I wouldn’t describe the snow as heavy here. I’d call it dense more than anything.

Lol. The higher it goes, the further we fall

I get wanting school closed, but people shouldn't be surprised it isn't, unless they are new here. NYC schools are very stingy with school closings. Once the actual storm is over and hours of plowing has occurred, it takes a near complete failure of the subway system to close schools. Or something like 2010 with stranded cars, plows, and buses all over the city. Also there is no extra time baked into the schedule, so it has to be made up somewhere else. Spring break, extra day in late June? If school is open but hardly anyone shows up it still counts as an instruction day. Id rather that than losing a holiday later on or delayed summer vacation. I don't think they like to do remote learning without preparing for it in the days prior, but this is coming off of mid winter recess plus the forecast of an actual blizzard developed fast.

Ended with 2 inches, all gone now.
