Jan 11th-12th Super Bomb or Super Bummed?
LibertyBell replied to Rjay's topic in New York City Metro
That was a case where the south shore might have done better than the north shore, we had over 20" here. I remember reading though that some parts of Long Island had up to 2 feet?- 992 replies

Notice how Baltimore has more than DC... it's because DC mixed over for awhile.

mix line came up there, it mixed with sleet at DC and changed over to freezing rain in Richmond and most of southern VA. -

they have some elevation. Mt Sinai probably has the most snow of anywhere on Long Island on average anyway. -

the heaviest snow has come after 1 pm so hopefully they measure it properly, driveways now covered with snow. -

wild I forgot it was in the 70s on this date in 2007, 11 years after the big blizzard. Second half of winter that year was much colder, even April's first 3 weeks were colder than January. and then 11 years after that we had a record cold stretch lol. There's that 11 year sunspot cycle again....

Jan 11th-12th Super Bomb or Super Bummed?
LibertyBell replied to Rjay's topic in New York City Metro
sometimes they do February 1978 was forecast a week in advance on 70s technology that's like going to the moon on 60s technology lol. February 1983 was forecast in advance. March 1993 was also forecast well in advance January 1996 was forecast in advance. PD2 was also forecast well in advance. Obviously the tracks nudged north/west but the signals for all of the above were there well in advance.- 992 replies

our biggest snowstorms had a kicker like that, they would get to the latitude of Delaware and then get booted east.- 992 replies

Snowfall NYC subforum Jan 6 and OBS if needed
LibertyBell replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
everything was nicely treated here so the roads are only wet as are the sidewalks and driveways, the snow has only accumulated on natural terrain (grass, trees, bushes, etc.) as well as rooftops and cartops. -
even the NYC measurement was incorrect, it was closer to 30" than 20"

this is why we need a super el nino to stop that northern stream

Long live January 1996!

LibertyBell replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
took a long time to get up there, our first flakes started at 9:44 am but only just started to accumulate (we have a light dusting in spots), it's a very light snow but very consistent. -

it actually mixed with sleet in DC and changed over completely to freezing rain in Richmond. -

LibertyBell replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
snowing here since 9:44 am (yes I managed to see the first flakes fall lol) but nothing has stuck here until now-- now we do have a light dusting in places, it's been very light snow. -
might be those SST anomalies and marine heatwaves at work to speed up the northern stream. A super el nino would probably upend this entire awful pattern.

did we ever figure out why the block was so strong in 2009-10 and 2010-11 and is that cyclic or a one off? The interesting thing is we've had very strong blocks before that did not pay off with a lot of snow....
