    What radar is this?  I have given up trying to use the new NWS radar and need a new one.  I don’t understand how NWS could put out such a horrible product. Maybe it’s just cheaper than other options?

    Yeah the updated NWS radar app sucks bad. Idk who developed that but everyone that mentions it gives it 0 stars and I agree. 

    Here the radar link...https://www.wunderground.com/radar/us/ny/binghamton/bgm

    I’m beginning to wonder about the westward extension of that band over central NY. I think the west of there might bust low.

    Itll probably weaken for sure but hopefully that gets off set by some lake enhancement for the south shore and northern finger lakes region. Haven't checked the models in a while though.

    Interesting range in Delaware County.  The eastern part seems to have been hit hard (12-15”+ and counting), but the western part (my house) has been in on/off light snow for the entire event (24+hrs) totaling around 6-8”.  Thankfully we had a good snowpack to start, so it’s not a complete crusher but still disappointing.  I have to admit that many of the models showed this spread across the county but I was suspicious because it’s pretty rare.  Eastern areas usually get and inch or two more than us, but rarely this big of a difference.  Even when we were under decent radar returns it just wasn’t snowing hard.  I’m going to have to look into subsidence.  
     

    I hope the Syracuse folks can get under a good heavy snow for a few hours to restore some sanity for them. THMatt may be lost already (for good reason....who moves to TH and gets skunked?!?!), but maybe this can save a few of the others! 

    Yeah the models were hitting the upsloping along the eastern hills of the catskills almost every run it seems while also downsloping western parts of the county.

    Probably have 2" eyeballing. Been snowing solidly for a few hours with bad growth..

    Yeah had that at times as well. Kuchera might be well over done with this storm or atleast for parts of the storm or in different geographical areas. Perhaps the standard 10:1 is a more closer match.

    Yeah, but seems out to lunch. I'm not getting 20". I'd LOVE to be wrong.

    Yeah idk, you have some nice banding in your vicinity atleast. Hopefully it's somewhat close to accurate. Maybe it's a better lake effect model. I actually didn't even know there was a higher resolution rgem til a few days ago.

    Ha! Yep. This is a perfect setup for them.

    My parents in Danville (Upper Susquehanna Valley) are approaching a foot and a half, while my cousins in Hazleton are approaching 2 feet.

     

    Nice. Have to say the models performed really well down there. They consistently hammered that area for 2+ days out.
