When the wind is just right, places downwind of the lake get buried in discarded coffee cups and white claw cans.

Jan 11th-12th Super Bomb or Super Bummed?
NorthShoreWx replied to Rjay's topic in New York City Metro
They definitely seem better than ever. When they're not perfect every Statler and Waldorf on the board starts blowing raspberries to express whatever it is they are trying to express. At least they have someplace to express themselves.- 993 replies

Jan 11th-12th Super Bomb or Super Bummed?
NorthShoreWx replied to Rjay's topic in New York City Metro
This is a myth. 21" was the maximum snowdepth in NYC during a 3 day storm in 1888; the record shows an entire day of snowfall that added 0. Also look at snowdepths from elsewhere around the region (not BOS, which got skunked). Plenty of cool old photos remain if you search for them. You don't have to take my word for it.

Started 1:30 pm in Syosset and ended at 7am on Saturday the 12th. Listened to description of the snow getting into NYC for several hours before it finally started in NE Nassau.- 993 replies

Snowfall NYC subforum Jan 6 and OBS if needed
NorthShoreWx replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
14.6" here last winter. 8.6" was the winter before. But your point is well taken. PS, 0.7" today. 3.6" season total -

They're getting what we got. The south Jersey stuff is headed OTS. -

NorthShoreWx replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
The short range models over the past couple of days, and even most of the global runs were pretty dead-on about the current snowfall. I agreed with you that the northern part of the modeled snow shield was going to be mostly virga and probably get shunted offshore southwest of here. We'll end with over 1/2 inch... pretty soon. -

28⁰ with steady light to moderate snow here. 0.5" so far which, all joking aside, really is overachieving for this one. -

Just saw a couple of small snowflakes. This storm is overachieving here. -

Roughly the northernmost 50 miles of those radar echos are virga. -

NorthShoreWx replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
I give it an honorable mention because of the preponderance of torchy cutters in between cold spells. But for the epic Ohio Valley blizzard (the cutter of all cutters), 77-78 would be a slam dunk for my top pick here. -

Since winters that are great early, great late, have the longest continuous periods without significant thaws, etc. tend not to overlap, the ranking is difficult. My top 4, in chronological order: 77-78 95-96 10-11 14-15 Each was outstanding in ways that the others didn't necessarily display. The total snowfall for those 4 winters was over 290" -

Total snowfall for 09-10 and 10-11 was similar here, but we had in the vicinity of a 20" snowpack (peak 26") for weeks in 2011. Until early February 2011 the hits just kept coming one on top of another. So 2010 was pretty decent, but 2011 gets the nod here. -

Our 30 minutes of snizzle here was epic. -
Thanks for reminding me that I don't miss them.

Depending on how you collated the stats, they could be overlooking the fact that there was that much snow from nickel and dime events falling during some of the "KU winters".

This is offensive

The one constant in the past several days of modeling the Monday event is that the skiing in West Virginia is going to be very good.

A few stray snowflakes in the air here. I wouldn't even call it a flurry, but being the diligent reporter that I am...there you go. 39⁰
