  1. I’m down to around 4 inches of snow on the ground. Temperatures are going to be above freezing until that rain arrives with the possible exception of tuesday night. I’m not particularly worried about a rapid melt or clogged sewers. Ground saturation is always an issue. This isnt a 1/12/96 scenario for the NYC metro or nearby burbs
  2. Stick your hand out the window it’s little ice pellets
  3. Belleayre and Hunter tripled their trails overnight. Heading up tomorrow
  4. Absolutely. Queens and Manhattan have way more snow than Westchester per my own eyes. But we will get the last laugh...we melt a lot slower haha
  5. It goes well with this forum. I’ve never seen anything like it. Always onto the next thing. Never enjoy what’s right in front of them. We spent the last four months talking about how warm and awful this winter would be, then we Talked about how bad the storm would be if it missed, Now that we have snow on the ground for an extended period of time we are talking about a warm-up and rain and flooding. ENJOY IT
  6. BGM isnt in our forum and no one in this area is at threat of a flash melt from the few inches of snow (or nothing) that will remain as we get closer to xmas eve. Mid 40s Mon thru Wed will meltdown our 6-12 inch snowpack very quickly.
  7. I came down to Queens to shovel. Definitely more snow in northern Queens then up in Westchester. By 2 inches or so. Whitestone : 11 inches
  8. I would do a commercial for the Toro. Excellent snowblower. Minimal maintenance
  9. Yes. As we get inundated with technology and models, time and time again historical trends prove very relevant. We have 10 inches. That is good for the winter ahead
  10. Still have a consistent band sitting over me. I stopper shoveling because it keeps falling. Not quite over yet
  11. No they werent. Models had 2 ft depicted as far north as Albany with the Northward trend
  12. Well this was a Bust. A nice bust, but a pretty big bust nonetheless. Culprit wasnt mixing but dry slot Hastings on Hudson just shy of 8 inches; forecast 12-16 21F at 7 am
  13. It is a shame. Cold air really locked in over the region. Mixing really isnt the biggest issue. The precip just isnt there. No way we get to NWS forecast. Mine was 12-16. This is a nice little storm before xmas. Nothing more beyond that
  14. Hastings. Was def sleet during lighter precip. Back toward a light snow now. Vis up over last hour
  15. Looks like 1/2 mile and moderate snow Need 1/4 for heavy snow KISP 170021Z 05017G27KT 1/2SM R06/6000VP6000FT SN FZFG FEW005 BKN009 OVC015 M02/M02 A3012 RMK AO2 PK WND 04027/0018 P0001 T10171022
  16. I would go with that then. Airports are surprisingly good. All based on visibility as opposed to an observation from a window
  17. Just to throw this out there... Does anybody remember the Valentine’s Day storm? All sleet. Awesome storm. Stayed around for a long time. All of a sudden this forum that likes winter weather is so anti-sleet. You get a few hours of snow and several hours of sleet and you are in winter storm nirvana because that snowpack isnt going anywhere for a long time
  18. Dont be deflated. It is Dec 16. History tells us this Dec storm is a good harbinger of other storms. Also have a good airmass for the rest of Dec.
