This is the normal NAM T-minus 36 hour scare.  We feel hopeful until the rest of the models give us a hard no in an hour or two.

yeah i dont believe anything the nam is selling good or bad, the model is pure trash, just commenting on what its showing, well see what the globals do in the next couple hours

The NAM/3K with a pretty sizable jump north for tomorrow night. Probably be a couple/few inches along 95 for CT.

Can we ban the term KU? How many KU’s have we had over the last years? 

Quite a bit actually.

Some of these didn't affect SNE in a big way but even taking those out there's been 10-15 or so in the past 10 years that are Cat 1 or higher. Last one was probably Jan 28-29 2022.

Thanks, but why wouldn't you include Warren County on your maps?  i get it's not part of the formal NYC MSA, but it part of the larger CMSA and just looks funny, geographically to be omitted, as it's closer to NYC than a bunch of the counties in the DMA.  Just my $0.02.

Simple. It was the best looking/clean map of the tri-state area i could find on google that i was able to edit in photoshop. It looked just like that map that you linked from the wikipedia article, it had Pike county in there but i deleted it because it looked weird.

Also that link you sent literally has warren county ommited in the picture on that page LOL

"Map of the metropolitan divisions (MDs) of the New York metropolitan area and the additional counties that make up the New York-Newark, NY-NJ-CT-PA CSA, as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau in 2021^[6]"

Im updating the season to date map today so if anyone has any reports from CT MA or RI let me know

I remember well the morning of the Feb 01 storm. The radar just exploding off the NJ Coast. That was the last time I saw Thunder snow in an event.

Do you remember how big the flake size was at the start? It's one of the things i remember the most about that storm and read a lot of similar accounts. They were like baseball sized flakes for like the first hour (aggies sticking together). And then the CG thunder snow/sleet at sunset was unreal. A bolt struck my neighbors backyard and was incredibly loud, haven't seen anything that good. But have seen thundersnow a lot since then. Feb 03, Feb 13, Feb 17, Mar 18 also had thundersnow here. 

I'll likely being doing an update to the season-to-date snowfall map so if anyone has an accurate total and wants to be included let me know, thanks. (please include your location)

This is amazing, thanks very much!

I’m at about 4.5 inches on the season, Toms River but away from the water & well inland. We’ve been a bit of a snow hole this winter with storms missing both north and south. 

is that on the map? probably just barely makes it toward the bottom there in Ocean right?

That was a cool event. It took awhile to get the better snow growth here but once it did we got 18 plus in 6 hours! We ended up with just a shade under two feet. The only bummer about 2/13 was that it happened at night

Yeah, 6"/hr and frequent CG lightning during the day would be something to behold. Closest thing i've seen during the day would be Feb 2001. 

One of the best storms for CT in the past 10 years (other than Feb 1 2021). Lots of thunder snow and 2-3" daytime rates

28”.  #4 For my Area in Recorded History, #2 of my lifetime.  2005 & 1997 is still my favorite of the 7 Major Full Area Blizzards though I must say (1992, 1996, 1997, 2003, 2005, 2013, 2015).  

And I missed the Semi-major ones of 2011, February 2017, & March 2018.  

only 40"

Even for a 1-10 chance this is a little ridiculous. Nothing shows that. Maybe half those numbers. Expected is reasonable

went 5-8" here while NWS was 8-12".  No one's mocking you btw

 

You are so dishonest and a gas lighter. So what was the purpose of asking "where's your 5-10 map" and then going to find it and post it underneath? 

And the irony, your location verified.

Yeah that was kinda low. No need to rub it in his face. It’s not like he went against the consensus and forecasted way too high, ridiculous numbers. Almost all other forecasts were similar and wrong. 

He's defending me and himself. We are partners. TT is just trolling per usual and pretending like he's not. 

Snowfall totals for the 2-8/9 winter storm. 

SNE was a couple inches lower than expected overall 3-6 vs 5-10 (except for N and NE mass). Certainly not the worst bust ever but not great either. Grade: D

Tri-state significantly better with the NYC/NJ/LI mostly verifying, CT and LHV too high. Grade: C-

Here's Albany's map. Generated product though. Still hard to get an idea of snowfall totals.

id love to see this type of zoomed in version with numbers on the map for OKX and BOX, do those exist?

3 here.  At least it looks pretty and the trees are somewhat caked with snow.
