I'm 12 miles from KDXR and I can confirm, it's been absolutely hammering here since about 9am. I'm over 20" now.
-
When I grew up they'd do a circle and clear near the curb and leave a big pile in the middle. It would be almost impossible to get out of the driveway.
-
Mostly, yes. It turned really grainy with some sleet but it is changing back to almost all snow now.
-
Visibility is pretty good now, at least 1k feet, still snowing pretty hard but it's grainy and sleety. 14/14/ENE7
-
I'm in Mahopac and getting really close to that 20. If the taint line stays in lower Westchester I'll go over.
-
Wow, just wow. Easily past 15" with 70 feet of driveway piles head high or better and visibility is still less than 2 blocks, so about 500 feet. Temp is up 10° and shit is getting dense and heavy. 15/15/E5G14/SN+
-
I got 6" from 12:20-2:30 and that was on top of the morning 6". Driveway piles range from mid-chest to head high already. The wind blew my board nearly clean Doesn't it figure, the only neighbor with a snowblower didn't come out until after I finished shoveling the plow pile
-
I'll be sniffing the taint Heh. If it stays below or at the 287/Merritt Pkwy it'll be perfect and I'll end up in a def band
-
...before stalling nea...? Near where?
-
Total fluff at 5° but the flakes are tiny now as opposed to the frisbees I had for a while. 4" down so I'm at least an inch ahead of what I expected at noon, so that's nice.
-
Fluff!! If all snow was like this I'd even shovel the neighbors driveways
-
5/2/NE4/SN+ At least 2" down. Heading out now
-
First plow just went by. Time to go move the heavy stuff 5/2/NE3/SN+
-
I just finished fixing up my shovel collection. I'm ready

It's good to see ya dude! Hope all is well. -
And there's another one coming if this guy is right https://www.severe-weather.eu/global-weather/polar-vortex-collapse-stratospheric-warming-february-2026-cold-united-states-canada-europe-fa/

Sun's up and so is the wind. Lol. Temps are leveling out quickly now between 4-6°. edit: stabilized at 3-4°
-
Temps range from 1° at the highest spots on my hill, up to 6° down at the bottom on the Croton River 4 miles away. Strange that there's no inversion this morning considering there's no wind. Man, it bugs me going into a storm so cold and knowing it's gonna get warm upstairs. That heavy, ball bearing shit sux to shovel but it's not as bad as an inch of slush under 6" of paste.

Many people would benefit from more education...
-
That warm nose is starting to concern me. It's prone to change to sleet here earlier than further west and stay crystally as that IVT they mention in the discussion gets it's act together.
-
That road can have wild temp swings in just a few hundred feet depending on exposure.
-
Mornings like this really show microclimate details well. I see temps within 3 miles as low as -6 to as high as the 8° I have now. At one point right before sunrise the spread was 15°!
-
Already down to 11°.
-
If we don't get into a better growth zone soon this is gonna move out before I get to 4". It never stopped snowing but it hasn't accumulated more than a tenth or two in about 4 hours and now it's just slowly coating things.
