  1. One thing that really stands out to me is how few times there were more than one such storms in any particular year. It happened more in the last 18 years than the previous hundred.
  2. I'm 350 feet above Croton Falls and it has been raining for an hour now. Spots that were shoveled/blown are down to iced over and wet pavement now everything else has a nice crust on it.
  3. Been here for a few minutes already 25*, wind is coming up, freezing mist and rain into 3+" of sneet. Everything is encased already, now it's gonna get locked in.
  4. I've got freezing mist and rain now, temp is 25*! Uggh
  5. I've gone back over to all snow and like ^^ also very fine flakes. Temp is up to 23*, dp 21.
  6. Long Beach As said above, there wasn't a lot of significant winter weather in the 80's outside of a few select storms.
  7. Temp still inching up, it's 21/22* now, E/ENE light and variable, moderate sleet 3+".
  8. ^ Boy I hope you're wrong about that ZR. This exceptionally dense 3" thick layer of sleet and snow will freeze up hard if that happens.
  9. Temp is slowly creeping upwards, 19* now. Most of the local WU stations are showing a southerly component to the wind now but it is all over the dial including some NW. It's still heavy sleet, easily 3" with 4 in some spots, sleet is a bear to measure.
  10. Sometimes it adds up. We've had some impressive sleetstorms here over the last 15 years. 6+" of pure sleet is a sight... and a big a*s hassle and we've had that a few times. #Thenewclimateregime
  11. I sure hope so. It's been pounding sleet here for 90 minutes now and was a sleet/snow mix for about that long before and all snow before that. There's now a bit less than 3" of slurry that sux to even walk in. It's 18* so if it did flip to frzg rain everything will turn into a solid block of ugliness.
  12. I had that for a few minutes before the flip to sleet. It's been heavy sleet for over an hour now that's compressing an already super dense 3" of tiny flake snow down to an ugly 2" slurry that's going to be fun to watch freeze up. Temp is still 18* dp is 15*, wind is kickin' out of the northeast too. Mahopac
  13. Flipped to heavy sleet a few minutes ago, temp is still 17, dp is up to 14.
  14. Oh no. Visibility just went way up and sleet started mixing in. Temp is still 16* and the wind turned a bit more to the N. It's gonna get ugly on the roads in a hurry.
  15. When I say better it's marginal at best. They're still so small that it's tough to see individual flakes unless you put a piece of something dark out for them to fall on. Flake size is big enough that it started to accumulate at a decent clip though, enough that the first plow just went down the street. Unfortunately he was cruising so threw snow 15 feet up the driveway and ripped a pothole open and spewed chunks into the front of my truck.
  16. 16/12-E-S+ We have passed through moderate to heavy snow here now. Flake size is better and the wind is pretty much down to nothing here on my hill.
  17. Vis is down to about 1/4 mile (sometimes a little bit more), flakes are still small, wind is coming around to more of an ENE rather than just E direction, temp is still 17*. Mahopac
  18. As long as the wind stays out of the east it will likely stay warmer along the coast than up here only 25 or so miles north of Stamford. The microclimates around here are pretty cool to observe. What's the temp there now? I'm at 17*.
  19. Snow is considerably heavier than earlier but the flakes are still very small so it's accumulating slowly, temp still dropping, down to 17, was 22 when the snow started, wind is lighter than before but still out of the east.
  20. Small flakes started a little while ago. Temp is 21 and wind is strong and appears to be mostly out of the east.
  21. My daughter said the Butternut was 'firm' yesterday. Jason yeah I sure did have some epic days. I'm so glad I got to do all of that while I was in my 20's.
