Feb 18-19 long duration manageable snow and ice event
HeadInTheClouds replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
For our area with ratios GFS is 6-8 and V16 is 4-5. -

Most models show more qpf for nyc metro than say around 84. CMC, Euro, V16, Nam all show that. Although we may indeed receive less qpf the ratios will be higher in 13-15:1 range and mixing is unlikely so at the end of the day everybody should see around 6 inches with a few slightly higher amounts. -

yes but v16 has been better with previous storms. Lets see what tomorrow brings. -

You might be right if the v16 and cmc are correct. -

And ratios are probably going to be 15:1. -

I would love to see CPk get to 30" for the month because winter was over in early January according to some. -

ICON is trash especially with thermals. It had rain to Canada with last nights event. -
It may be a little more. A huge tree limb just broke off one of my trees and clipped my car. Ugh. I was below freezing all night. I'm now at 33.

I think we will likely see some plain rain Tuesday morning but most of QPF will fall as sleet and ZR. Now the further north and west you are the better your chances. I'm 20-25 miles north of you so that could make a big difference I guess. Whatever we lose we will have to make it up on Thursday.
-
You are probably going to be surprised then. I see Dutchess county pretty much a lock to get a good deal of sleet and at least .20 ZR.
-
Yeah thats 1 model along with Icon that Im not going to trust with thermal profiles being so critical. All other models show icing being a potential problem N and W.
-
Hoping for more sleet than ZR up here in MHV but it's looking right now like a significant icing event. Not good.
-
What I have noticed from the icon these past few months is that it's low placement is ok but it's thermals are awful. This is one model I wouldn't be looking at when thermals will be so important with the next few storms.
-
Yup, it was brutal. I'm also in HV a little north of Poughkeepsie. I haven't seen a combination of snow and cold like that since. I hit -23 that winter and spent a lot of time clearing ice dams off of my roof.

Where was it -57? Barrow Alaska? The lowest I have been in is -23 back in 1994. It was brutal. -
