  1. Sun angle is strong now. Despite the cold, lots of melting on south facing hills
  2. It almost never happens in this area and if it does, round 2 is always disappointing
  3. “wet not white” ”some snow or Some Snow?” “Back to you Kaity...” ”Thanks G...”
  4. I never had a winter weather advisory for 5 to 9 inches before. Guess they know something we don’t
  5. Turns out Texas has a Long Island-inspired power grid.
  6. soon. very soon! I brought it up in January when people said winter was over
  7. For the record I am in Bethel Maine at Sunday River. At 7 AM it is sleeting. We never even had a shot with this one in New York
  8. Correct. Someone said this will be a historic ice storm last week. I responded that type of event for our area is almost impossible to predict 5 days out.
  9. Yeah we cant get worked up over a mild march.
  10. You're the same people that complain when we don’t have snow. We haven’t had any appreciable snow on the ground in two years. It has been on the ground for a whopping 2 weeks and you want it gone. In a week or two it will be gone for 10 months (sans a wet March snow) and you can enjoy the record dewpoints that the cement jungle provides us these days. For the record, there is never anywhere to park in Brooklyn...that is why people who want a car lifestyle eventually leave Brooklyn
  11. I would say 1.5 inches on the driveway in Hastings on Hudson This is a tough measurement because it’s light and powdery on top of everything that’s already covered in snow.
  12. Another beauty was the Valentine’s Day storm in the mid 2000s. That was sleet for hours. The reason you and I remember these storms in the five boroughs is they are very unusual (as you said)
  13. Bad ice storms arent predictable this far out. Too many factors have to line up Just eye candy for now
  14. It was very bad even in Queens. 94 was the best winter ever...That ice storm was a big part of it
  15. This becomes a snow storm about 10 miles south of 84 From personal observation on the Thruway this morning
  16. Actually I eat my own words. It has gotten quite intense around Newburgh.
  17. It is funny looking at radar. Snow to north. Rain to south. Nothing in between. There were two questions regarding fundamentals of this storm for NYC: warmth or QPF Looks like QPF will be the issue as of now
  18. Snowing in hastings for past 2 hours. Nothing to show for it 22F
  19. Why would this come in warm for tomorrow? The low is offshore. Airmass decent. Rain to 84 seems unlikely
  20. Still snowing lightly, but we are putting a Bow on this. 7 inches in Hastings
  21. It is just sitting there. Really unexpected. And the snow almost looks like it does right before it changes to rain big big flakes except it’s fluffy not wet hey
