I'm 50 miles north of NYC in orange county NY. It's been a good season so far with 26.3 inches here, but I wouldn't call it great. It this weekend plays out well it will lean in that direction.
We've already had three events in many parts of our forum of 6 inches this winter alone. Unless you just moved here, I really don't think many people think that even with the last four milder winters.
I'm not sure why. 10 to 14 inches of snow with a layer of sleet and freezing rain on top of it sticks around a hell of a lot longer than 6 inches of plain snow.
Uptons map is only through 7 PM Sunday. I'm not really sure why they would put out a map to that point in time when there may be several hours of accumulating snow still to go in many areas.
Storm totals are supposed to be the high depth amount for the day. Should for instance 10 inches compact down to seven or eight people are supposed to record 10. Of course it doesn't always happen that way.
It's hard to imagine this scenario where Sussex ends up with only an inch more than Cape May. It could happen, but I don't see it. Wonder what they're thinking is, other than twice the precip in south Jersey?
They are always concerning even when you think you're far enough north or west.
With that said if this ended with just the last .10 of precip as sleet, I find that ideal for many different reasons.
It should be a good one. I could easily see a foot maybe a foot and a half.
I've seen a lot of 2 foot and a couple of 30-35 inches here. I don't think we can get to those levels out of this setup.
Hit -1 yesterday morning so it's good to get that out of the way for this Winter.
I just got back from a long journey into the Main Forum. Such an odd place. Everyone seems to reference where they live as the only place that exists in current setups and past winters.
It's good to be home.
Happens all the time. Everyone acts like where they are is where everyone is. No concept the forum runs a general 75 mile radius north south east and west of Central Park.
