Yeah my grandmother lost the tree in front of her house that survived Sandy, Irene, Gloria etc. It luckily missed the house by like a foot but ripped off the gutter and power lines attached to the house

Back in 2021 I was working at the Home Depot in Jericho for a summer job between semesters and the store got hit by lightning. The thunder was so loud it literally felt like a mini earthquake, knocked out power to the store too.

That was probably the best summer in my life for severe storms (I’m only 23 though). I saw hail 2 times (twice in one day) that summer after never having seen it before in my life. In late August my neighborhood got hit by a downburst that produced Sandy level damage around here. There was also another storm in late june that produced hurricane force gusts out in central suffolk, I was on the beach fishing that day and got absolutely sandblasted from the gust front out ahead of that storm even though it missed to the east.

Yeah that area and the region around Albany and west Mass usually get good storms every year

Summer of 2019 I believe had some strong storms out here

And that’s even with the newer 1991-2020 averages, we still can rarely manage a below normal month

Long Island is still abnormally dry from last summers drought, hopefully we don’t get a repeat of that

I feel like the biggest example of this would be when Suffolk got 20”+ in both Juno (Jan 2015) and Jonas (Jan 2016). I think this was the only county/region that got crushed by both storms

I saw someone on twitter report that there was up to 10” there but I wouldn’t trust anything twitter weenies say…

There is some good banding going over them right now so they can probably add another inch or 2, but still, that’s a decent sized bust for them

0.5” here which brings me to 3.7” on the season. I’m pretty sure that I got this years seasonal total within an hour during the blizzard last year lol

Snow lightened up a bit here so the half inch or so that accumulated has mostly melted now

+SN coming down good right now. It’s finally starting to stick to grass and trees, 33/31

I had a slight coating on the grass here but the second the snow let up a bit it more or less vanished

Getting some big flakes falling now, maybe we can wetbulb to around freezing and pick up a little bit of accumulation here

It’s pretty common for them to get accumulating snow into early April so I wouldn’t be surprised. Last year they got 3” on April 19th

Getting some windswept white rain in Lindenhurst. 37/31

If this was all snow, this would be the part where we’d all flip out because of the dry slot lol

I believe eastern and western WFOs follow different protocols when issuing advisories/watches/warnings and whatnot. At least that’s what I was told when I was interning at the Albany office

This storm has 3/14/17 part 2, written all over it. At least I won’t be disappointed by my 4 inches of slop this time

6-8 in Babylon and then like <0.5” in Patchogue would be the craziest cutoff I’ve ever seen for the island

I’m honestly not sure, I went back to sleep right after the first batch ended, so I missed the second one. It never actually made it below freezing here either, but there was still a little bit of snow on the ground at 8:30 so I’m assuming it had to accumulate because i doubt the original half inch would’ve survived in the sunlight until then.

Yeah it started snowing just after 2:00 and lasted until around 4:30, we did get another brief burst of snow around 6AM though.

Yeah we had a decent amount of white rain, plus some virga beforehand here (RH was around 20% for me when the decent radar echos were starting to reach the south shore). Amounted to maybe just under half an inch here.
