Overnight rainfall here only 0.06".  Most of the precip was to our S and SW.

0.07 here.

Looks like the snow level about 2100 feet here based on the radar beam height where the CC starts to show a mix. Bright banding over the south shore shows way high up it is snowing. Too bad it can’t be a month later. 

Where can you see that on RadarScope? I see Tilt 1 to Tilt 4 and see the height calculator generally online, but i don’t see how you can as accurate as 2100 feet. 

My point and click in Suffolk now says snow is likely tonight. Strange 

33/28. It’s certainly cold enough to snow

Why isn't there a west coast page on here unless I'm totally blind. 

They’re too busy enjoying life to spend time on a weather board 

36/28…

Jeff Berardelli is who he meant. E.g., https://www.facebook.com/JeffBerardelli/

Just looked. I guess he missed his post yesterday about the mini heat wave about to hit the southern portion of the country.

Jeff Beradelli has stated that sudden stratospheric warming will begin today, dropping a polar vortex into the northeast by early next month.  

Who?

Upton has “rain/snow” in its forecast for northern half of Long Island tomorrow night 

Snow totals from the storm.

I think we got 8-9” out in Suffolk. That backend really blew up and crushed us. I was driving to and from JFK and saw the rain/snow line. 

45 for the high today. Farmingdale still gusting to 40. My neighbors grill cover…the metal part…blew into my yard last night. Crazy stuff

KISP 48 kt in the last hr.  PNS will need an update.  Much thanks for that. 

Seems like at least one more wind advisory event between 11/25-12/2. 

That’s 55 mph. Not bad. A few gusts had to be close to 50 here 

It was obvious hours ago a wind advisory was needed. Upton often misses wind events lately, at least out here

The snow came down furiously in the late afternoon/evening. I have some videos from then and I recently rewatched them and remembered how heavy it was coming down. 

Took me 3 hours to go from river head to Commack. The LIE was a total disaster. It’s normally a 35 min ride

I thought even on radiational cooling nights, the water can still influence the air temps nearby. 

For example, in the fall, on radiational cooling nights, being less than a mile from the water I will be a few degrees warmer than places in east Central Queens, away from both the Sound and the Atlantic. 

And it's not a matter of more or less urbanity, both locations are basically the same look wise. 

Islip is like 5 miles from the water. West Hampton is much closer to the water and is the best radiator on the island 

It’s breezy out there!

Close lightning strike and good thunder. 0.16”

28.0. First hard freeze. She’s dead, Jim

32.8 this morning.

From what little I remember, the Gulf Stream/Labrador Current circulation has been slowing down, raising the NYC metro area temperatures 4 to 5 degrees warmer than normal?

Not that simple. My understanding is that the slowing current hasn’t had a meaningful impact on temps yet 

Nasty day. Waiting for that sunny forecast to verify…
