But this time there would be zero rain or mix, it would just be too cold, much colder than it was during *Nemo* -
Looks like it might have been even more snow for Central and South Jersey based on the map Stormlover posted above.
-
10:1 ?!
-
what did the 12z run have? 20+ for everyone?
-
what's the 10:1 at the end of the storm (0z on Friday or whenever)?
-
wow that's better than I thought it would be. 14.0 on that run for here
-
It's not bad, just need it a bit further west.
-
Maybe no one will get anything, including DC
-
when will that kicker be properly sampled?
-
I just dont like the word *shower* when it refers to snow, it's a huge source of confusion for many people who always associate *shower* with rain. I think that term needs to be retired from the weather lexicon and just use flurries instead You're right though, can't waffle back and forth, they should just say *A chance of snow*
-
a *shower* not never even refer to snow, I hate that overused phrase with a passion a shower should ONLY refer to rain
-
*snow showers* is the most overused phrase in history
-
Don't mess with Santa
-
But that kicker hasn't even been sampled yet? When will that be properly sampled-- Monday?

LibertyBell replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
the ground is colder than the air temperature -
Highs:EWR: 76 (1949)NYC: 73 (1949)LGA: 74 (1949)JFK: 64 (1954)Lows:EWR: -7 (1943) NYC: -8 (1943)LGA: -7 (1943)JFK: 5 (2015) That -8 in 1943 was the last time NYC was colder than -2 ! Is the -7 at LGA their all time record low, Tony? 73-76 is unusually warm for February! No records for JFK in 1949 Tony (obviously not for the cold in 1943.)

But then you can also have a super windy blizzard like January 2016 with 12 straight hours of true blizzard conditions that drops over 30 inches at JFK. Maybe February 1978 is an example of wind reducing total snowfall though as JFK only received 14 inches in that storm, less than half of what they got in January 2016.
-
January 2015 was still 10 inches so plenty of snow.
-
Yes that was a mixing storm here too and the snowfall rates weren't as high as the other two I mentioned.
-
I loved both the December and February snowstorms that winter, that was another snowy la nina after el nino.
-
No 2 miles in. Winter storms don't do a lot of damage to our beaches unless one lives on a barrier island and I don't remember any snowstorm especially damaging ocean front or beach front property, it's usually the big rainstorms that do it like December 1992.
-
The best combo would be if it stalled and looped around.
-
oh it was a great storm, just not a blizzard here. Anything that drops 10 inches or more is a KU event
-
Does that mean if AI weather models had been developed in the early 10s they would have been much more accurate since coastal snowstorms were much more common back then?
-
snow storm to mixed event, but not a blizzard
