7.3 inches on the board, about what was expected although I had my doubts. Seasonal total 16.2, still a solid F- 26.6 and light snow.

7.3 inches in Highland Mills Orange County. 16.2 now for the season. 26.6 and light snow.
-
3.8 inches highland mills NY, 30 miles due west of Danbury. 29.1 and snowing moderate to heavy. Finally over a foot for the season. Pathetic.
-
3.0 inches as of 11:30 which will be my only measurement tonight. 29.1 and fairly heavy snow again. 6-8 looking very realistic now by morning.

3.0 inches as of 11:30 in Highland Mills, Orange County NY 29.1 and heavy snow has returned.

Hey guys we’re just realizing now the snow measurements in Central Park are BS? They have a long history of not measuring or under measuring snow. It began with the blizzard of 1888 and continues to this day. The under one inch and the larger events they are usually at their worst. It drove me insane for years, thus the weather forum name I have had for twenty years. Little good did it do.

I first started to notice that when my daughter moved to East Fishkill. More often than not it always seemed like she was a few inches short of what I would get in Highland Mills, Julian just confirmed that over the years. What exactly, if there is one, is the reason for that? The elevation difference isn't that significant, 200-300 feet, and the latitude further north. I realize every storm is different but it seems to happen consistently.

I love the oval of 8-10 right over Highland Mills in Eastern Orange County. It seems to work out that way more often than not, although the last few years not as much for whatever reason, lack of storms probably a big part of that. That scroo zone that Julian references east of the river is certainly on display in this map. Will be interesting to see how it all plays out the next 24 hours.

We hope it’s the first widespread significant event. In Albanys forecast area is warning criteria 7 inches?
-
I don’t quite understand the Winter Storm Watch for 5-8 still in Orange County. If they are so on the fence about achieving the six inch warning criteria why not just issue an advisory for 4-6 and upgrade to a warning at 4 am if needed.
-
Highland mills. It’s right in between Central Valley and Cornwall. Most of the town 500 to 800 feet ASL.
-
Winter storm watches in Orange County. Hopefully that becomes a warning with the 4 pm update.

JFK is a terrible representation of NYC snowfall wise but I’m sure you already know that. The only positive to that is LaGuardia and JFK usually get storm totals correct. Central Park gets measurements low 80% of the time. LGA would be a better representative sight, JFK is the southern extreme of NYC. It would be like using the northern Bronx as the representative sight as the opposite extreme.
-
That would take 29.4 inches more of snow from this point forward. That would be a top 5 period going forward through April. I doubt it but I’d love it.
-
Unless it starts up again 0.8 inches for this one and I didn’t even expect that. 8.8 now for the season. At the very least it looks assured now I won’t have my first ever single digit snowfall season.
-
If you cleared the board that's a serious violation of the most recent guidelines. It may disqualify anything you recorded today.
-
0.8 on the snowboard as of 1:00 PM snow picked up again so I may even break an inch, 8.8 now for the season.
-
Should we actually get Plowable snow Monday night, I’m back to rooting for a cold March. The 52 projected on Thursday is already annoying me. One thing at a time I know. Let’s see some significant snow first.
-
For March it would be 10-1 it does. For April even money.
-
In this case it makes a lot of sense. You want to build your current models around what your current date averages are and they continue to increase over the last 60 years. Today’s set up would not yield the same result that 30 years ago did.
-
The record low is the 2.8 inches in 72/73. That was a much colder winter than this one. You’re correct.

New England Met Winter 2022-2023 Banter
CPcantmeasuresnow replied to HoarfrostHubb's topic in New England
I’m sitting at 8 inches even for the season with no more than 2.5 in any one event. To me this season is an obvious F so far, and if I have another another March 2018 and first week April where I received 50 inches it can’t make up for the worst late November through end of February I’ve ever experienced. Even another March 2018 makes this a D+. You can never make up for losing the holidays, the lowest Sun angle month and the entire month of January and February and record warmth both months. March 1888 can’t rectify what we’ve already endured, but that might come close. -
I seriously doubt it, but if it did happen I’m sure those of us in the HV would do pretty well too. With that said it wouldn’t save this Winter for me. A month of winter in March and a week in April wouldn’t undo three and half months of total crap.
-
We live in the northeast. Did you mean New England?
-
It's just so pathetic that this even warrants commenting on. Such is the state of the Winter that never was.
