  1. I was surprised to look out and see real snowflakes swirling all around for a few minutes. Almost moderate snow. Back to a light pixie dust mix now.
  2. This was from the middle of my parents cul-de-sac in 1961. I have memories of them doing the same thing years later (but no photographs). Not sure why they stopped the practice.
  3. Sounds like a million snow plow memes. I count myself lucky every time they don't knock over the mailbox.
  4. At 12 degrees it's probably more granular than it is cement, unless you've been mixing salt in with it.
  5. You have no idea the tremendous act of will it took for him to admit he had even that much snow. He's curled up in a corner muttering to himself and rocking back and forth now.
  6. North Smithtown snowfall total as of 5pm 10.1" Temp 20° and rising again. Sleet/snow mix (more sleet)
  7. The mix line is oscillating like someone snapping a rope: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?parms=DIX-N0C-1-24-100-usa-rad
  8. Thanks for mentioning that. I went and looked at a bunch of wunderground stations and it looks like the north shore spots have dropped a degree or two and around the expressway just started dropping a little. Curious to see if that turns around soon by you. I assume you're not very much south of the expressway.
  9. The temperature has dropped 2° in the last 45 minutes. That's one element that I really wasn't expecting at this time of day. 18° snow/sleet mix.
  10. Would it be ok if I posted them from here? It's not a good day to drive to Rockland.
  11. It's all or nothing on the pretty pictures. I have seen output that shows mixed precip, but that isn't great either.
  12. Montauk is getting raked right now. Mix line is approaching them:
  13. Still bouncing between mostly sleet and mostly snow mix here. More snow at the moment. Crappy flakes but enough that viz is down to about 1/4 mile. Maybe a few survived a trip through the warm nose, but I think most of the snow is forming below 800mb. Not quite snizzle, but very fine and a lot of them and it is definitely accumulating. The temperature which was steadily rising all day reached 21, but that has reversed and we are now a hair under 20. North of the sound is looking very good, even if they get a little mix soon right along the shore.
  14. Mix line in Suffolk County is showing up on BOX radar now: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?parms=BOX-N0C-1-12-100-usa-rad
  15. I measured 9.2" at 2:45 pm. I didn't wipe the boards, but placed another. It will be interesting to see the comparison. It's pretty cool watching the visibility fluctuate as the snow/sleet mix fluctuates.
  16. Snow/sleet mix now. I am canceling winter. Up to 19°
  17. It'll probably be a back and forth for a while once it starts, especially on the north shore,
  18. 8.0" as of 2 pm, so no 2"/hour so far, but 1.5"/hour ain't bad (3" in the past 2 hours). Still violently regurgitating snow here at 2:20 pm 17.6°/dp 15.7°
  19. Easily. We did 1.5"/hour rates before the viz dropped to where it is now (about 1/8 mile). Temp is up to 15.3° ...sun angle coming into play
