Man I never thought of that. Gonna be off for awhile while I wrap my indoor pipes just in case.

Also the prediction in the city was for an inch, so they never got the plows or sand and salt trucks prepared. That's why they're over reacting this year every time the word snow is even mentioned. They're now acting like this is Atlanta and not a city that averages 30 inches of snow a season. Typical government over reaction to criticism they took, with the dumb as a rock mayor heading up the pack. This is no knock at either party, neither of which I'm found of, but Deblasio is exceptional in his stupidity IMO. Stupidity is the one thing he excels at.

He's become somewhat of a loose cannon the last several years. I never know whether he's serious anymore, or just taking a stab at it trying to be the one that "called it"

In NYC I would agree. I'm in the HV 50 miles NNW of midtown and I always consider winter to be the last week of November until April fools day.

I said almost the same thing verbatim on the NW burbs thread about ten minutes ago. I hate that sound.

It must be the 10:1 ratio map vs actual. Although I find it hard to believe that in this setup ratios would be higher than 10:1. Maybe on the initial thump they will be though. I never get my hopes up for these setups, the changeover to frozen seems to happen earlier too often, later in the event less often, or not at all not enough for my liking. It will be interesting to see what the afternoon runs say.

Who are you kidding, you're far from over it. It's only just begun.

Yep you beat me to it. The consecutive days with snow OTG streak ends at 13 today. I'm hoping we start a new streak on Tuesday. I'd like to believe the Euro's 6-8 inches for Monday night but a very iffy setup and lots of mid level warming, so I'm doubting it for now.

I'm guessing the consecutive days of snow cover will end at 13 tomorrow. It would be nice to have it begin again on Tuesday but maybe with less ice than the some of the models are showing.

Yesterday afternoon my projected high for Tuesday was 32, this morning it's 45. That's some really bad overnight trends.

Plenty of cops and firemen that work in the city living in Orange County NY 45 miles due north/northwest, I'm related to several of them. You're average yearly snowfall will go from 28 inches per year to 56 inches (higher than Bostons and colder too) , and every winter you'll have sub zero readings at least several mornings, and you can still keep your current job. Lower housing costs too. You should consider it.

Not in the city today so no way to verify but in your opinion the 0.2 in Central Park seems accurate? Seemed a little low to me.

2.4 for the final tally, 14.4 for the month.

Good deal, you got short changed on the early December storm so nice they way it evens out.

No additional accumulation from the last band that went through. Final tally 2.4 inches, now at 14.4 for the month. No complaints here, my ideal December so far. Well I could have done without the rain Monday and Tuesday which washed away the majority of the snow from the beginning of month but that's nitpicking.

You don't have to move far out of the city to nearly double your yearly average. 40 miles north and northwest will do it.

2.4 new inches bringing the months total to 14.4 inches. Pleasantly surprised. More importantly there's been snow covered ground every day in December. 11 days and counting.

Sometimes you have to trust your eyes and not the models.

Anyone have a NAM snowmap?

41° snow cover down to three inches exposing the sleet layer that fell on the first. Spiked up to 46 sometime during the night. Not loving the rain but still 10 days into December and there's been a solid snow cover every day, no complaints there. Hoping to cash in on a couple of inches tonight. The 17th-18th looking interesting to say the least, but way to far out for me to get excited yet. As always so much can change in a week.

34° and raining. 7 inches of compressed solid snow cover still on the ground. It will be interesting and depressing to see how much snow if any remains on the ground 36 hours from now.

8.8 this morning for the low, 8 straight days of solid snow cover. December an A so far through 8 days. Will drop to a B by Tuesday evening and hopefully back to an A by Wednesday afternoon. It hasn't been boring.

Not the case in the HV, it hasn't even fallen off the trees yet. Even with the cutter Monday and Tuesday, what we have on the ground now and the concentrated qpf in the foot that fell should be able to stand up to it. We shall see.

About the same degree of compression here. The peak depth was 12.0 inches yesterday at sunrise, its down close to 10 inches now.
