    ^^ Too often. Over the last 10 or so years we've had at least one or two per year.

    50° in Cortland Manor (Peekskill) right now. Not liking the model trends at all. I really hope the place my daughter works closes Friday otherwise I have to drive her and she opens at 6:30am.

    I'm not looking forward to this.

    Sometimes you say the dumbest shit. This is one of those times.

    North of 287 is the hinterlands dude. It's awfully presumptuous of us to think we matter, just ask all the people from Brooklyn that I used to work with. They told me pretty much every day

    This is crazy, the temps here on the hills are 8 to 15 degrees higher than the surrounding low spots. I'm at 16, further up is 18 and down in the hollows it's 3-8.

    I remember an ice storm in the early 70s in Oceanside where I could sit down outside our front door and slide all the way down the driveway into the street. The poor dog couldn't stay still to poop without sliding and falling over. Where did you live in town?

    You obviously don't live where it's hilly.

    Seems like another tick or two south should get us out of the ice zone.

    No ice please As to the frozen lakes question - The open expanse that is likely to be surrounded by hills may promote some air movement leading to slightly higher temps.

    Pretty classic radiating going on out there. I'm at ~9°, .5 miles and about 300 feet up the hill it's 13 and .5 miles and 250 feet down it's 0/-1.

    As cold as it has been there are a surprising number of unfrozen reservoirs around here.

    16° and the roads are wet. That's gotta be good for the car

    No it's like that last 40+ gust that scoured everything soft off all exposed areas. The wind is crazy. The snow is blowing every which way including up.
  15. gravitylover
    I'm not too far into NY west of Danbury and I'm mostly getting 5+ but the wind is beating it up. I think it should be called @ 6".
  16. gravitylover
    That actually backed up a bit further than it looked on radar before it pulled out. I got a pretty hardcore burst from about 11:30-12:15 and now the wind is howling out of the N as this thing moves out. The roads are like we got double (or more) the amount due to wind but even more so due to show fkn cold it is. It's gotta be 6" here but most measurements I was able to take are around 5 because of the wind.

    That was an absolute mess even on LI. I was working in Little Neck and had parked up the hill that morning because I could stick my Jeep in a snowbank and have easy parking. I had to crawl up the hill to get to it and when I touched it the slide began. I literally jumped in, started it and threw it in reverse to spin it. It finally bounced to a stop 5 feet from sliding into Northern Blvd traffic.

    I'm comfortable with calling it 5" but most measurements were closer to 4 with a wind beaten surface. Some of those bands have been really prolific producers, the wind changes to the E and the flakes get big for 5-10 minutes then the wind goes back to the north and the fractured flakes are back. 8° sux to shovel in but at least this super dense stuff isn't terribly heavy because it's so cold.
  19. gravitylover
    14°, not too windy and snowing hard. I'll take it.

    That curly line stops a few blocks south of my backyard Someone give it a little kick for me would ya 14° with moderate snow and light N wind between 6-10mph. Looks to be about 3" so far.
  21. gravitylover
    Snowing nicely since about 8pm but due to poor snow growth it's accumulating very slowly.
  22. gravitylover
    The pre snow pretty much just fizzled out, there's still random flakes drifting around. I can call it at just under .5. Nice day, now let's get this thing wound up, eh
  23. gravitylover
    For years (decades) we'd be happy with 3-6 but after 25 years of frequent blockbusters this leads to meltdowns.
  24. gravitylover
    You don't like snow so no great loss, right?
  25. gravitylover
    It hasn't stopped snowing since about 10am, intensity has varied between very light and not quite moderate. There's close to a half inch on existing snow, .2-.3 on elevated surfaces and barely wet pavement although as soon as it got dark it started sticking on the pavement too. I saw temps between 31>34 while out this afternoon, it's 25-29 around town now. There's still no wind too speak of.
