  1. Dude don't you know that anything above Dyckman St is upstate and west of Fort Lee is never never land?
  2. It popped to 38 but as the high clouds moved in it dropped a bit then stabilized.
  3. Wrong. 36/24 here and there are some lower dp's in Westchester.
  4. Thanks @wdrag. It's also tough since Jerry doesn't report from Yorktown anymore so there's no more reliable reports form the northern end of Westchester and I don't know of any trained spotters here in Putnam that report regularly. I've thought about it but my property doesn't lend itself to proper measuring.
  5. Yeah right, what a beautiful morning out there. It doesn't look like a snowstorm is incoming does it? Is there a place for soundings for KDXR and KPOU? I'm still trying to learn to read them but find some aspects to them quite useful already.
  6. The northern extent of the heavier snowfall needs to be moved north by a pretty fair bit. There were lots of reports of 4" in Westchester and I'm right on the county line in Putnam and had 4.5".
  7. @Juliancolton I hope you're right. It sounds like most folks in the storm thread are pretty comfortable with it not being wet here at all. I don't trust any benchmark track storm with strong easterlies this close to the water.
  8. I'm not liking the rain to start the storm in my forecast. That rarely makes for a good "winter" storm here. I'm just a bit too close to the water especially if the wind turns east with a southerly component to it. It's like the warm air banks up against the Taconics a few miles to my northwest and leaves me more wet than white especially being on an easterly aspect that's open to the south. I know it's supposed to cool significantly during the storm but I end up with warm air trapped for a while and it usually gives me a period of indeterminate mixed precip before the flip to snow. With as cold as it looks to be behind the storm there's going to be some ugly ice here. I really hope the wind turns northerly ahead of or as the storm moves in.
  9. I can already hear the whining about how far below avg we are in 2030 when we've warmed to the point that a storm like the one this morning is the biggest storm of the year and it only happens once every 2 or 3 years.
  10. You let me down. You straight up lied to me when I called you out the other day. That offends me. Go away.
  11. Oooh I'm almost at 20" for the year now Fkn plow went down the street so fast the last few days they've broken up the pothole patch in front of my house. This morning it threw rocks 20 feet up the lawn and pummeled the side of the car in the driveway with asphalt chunks up to 3" and a ton of gravel.
  12. 4 1/2". As soon as snow was cleared from anything it immediately turned wet even with no sun.
  13. No I want 70* even more now. Not being allowed to go out and do "stressful" things like shoveling or riding my fat bike means I'm essentially trapped inside until it melts and dries. Heck, I'm stressed just thinking about dealing with my driveway until this stuff melts, my car is trapped because I can't move the plow pile and it only has 4.5" of clearance.
  14. Just woke up and was quite surprised. I'm easily over 4", will go out and measure in a little while.
  15. My brain wants a big impact but my heart disagrees FL is a different place from the middle Keys on out, in fact it's a pretty great place out there. North of Marathon is pretty much useless to me...
  16. Sun is out and the temp jumped to 30.
  17. 1" is generous for what I got this morning. It was well under that on what was bare ground yesterday and 1.1 on the cars. At least it was fluffy and I was able to use the leaf blower to clean the driveway. I always enjoy doing that especially when a neighbor sees me and does a double take
  18. I did add those in. I've gotten skunked on everything but November. A couple of dustings, like yesterday, in December, next to nothing in January and a couple of inches that mixed with sleet super early on in the February storms.
  19. I had ~7" in November but only 1" total for December (and that's optimistic, it was probably more like .7) then the other storms all turned to rain/freezing rain or sleet so the totals were minimal at 2" or less. With the great winters we've had the last 20 years or so my average has gone up to about 50, used to be mid 40's.
  20. ^ Same. It looks more wintery than it has in a while. Whoda thunk, it can snow two days in a row here
