My bar supposedly blew over at some point overnight and according to my wife there is broken glass all over the place on my porch. I just got back from LA last night so if I would have known I would have put the bar away. I hate friggin wind.

Stupid question to the experts here…looking like a decent amount of rain Wed night into Thursday and “breezy.” I have to fly out to LAX midday Thursday. How “breezy” are we looking at because I’m hoping to get out of JFK as close as on time as possible.

Refresher snow & obs between ~midnight and Noon Sat Feb 17 2024

I’d say 3-4 inches of cement by me. 2 nice, somewhat, little events both easy to clean up and shovel. I like that. Kids happy. I’ll take it. -

Unpopular opinion…I don’t mind at all. Love getting the occasional 2-footer, and love the sight of the snow in the air, but once the storm has cleared, it can all melt as far as I’m concerned. If it’s not a monster storm, anything less than a foot gets sloppy and inconveniencing. -

Just left for work, so shoveled a 2nd time…gonna guess close to 6” on my lawn (W Babylon). Figuring another inch from what’s left to come. Kids are with their pop now, who’s a large child himself, so everyone’s happy. I always look forward to Spring, it’s my favorite time of year, but it was pretty nice seeing the large flakes and the nice landscapes for a few hours this morning. -

Snow has picked up significantly in the last 5 or 10 minutes, particularly the size of the flakes. Big, silver dollar pillows falling and still not much wind yet. If it keeps up like this until mid-afternoon, we will easily hit predictions. First plow of the day just went by. -

Juicy radar incoming off the Atlantic heading toward most of Long Island. We haven’t seen snow like this since January of ‘22. -

So….when does the blizzard start? Or, the total bust? Oh, can you guys and girls above, like, White Plains/New Rochelle let us coastal people get a little something? Ya greedy bastards -
I’m guessing I’ve gotten higher gusts in the last hour or so than I got last night.

The one thing I (think) I learned in all those years I lurked and read was that the money got earned on the 0z and 12z models and the 6z and 18z models were “clown” models. Am I wrong about that? In a nutshell.

I’ve been feeling like crap the past 2 days so I took a little 3-mile jog and it was beautiful out. No wind at all.

lol, you start throwing around terms like “snow” and “accumulation” and this storm is getting completely ignored.

Supposedly Fire Island breached at Ocean Beach and they had to cut the substation there. Crazy. I saw a quote that someone there said the flooding was worse than Sandy.- 3,610 replies
