  1. 1.3" new so far today. Event total 5.7". Temp up to 30.7 as of 2:55pm, light snow still falling. Warmest it's been since very early on Wednesday. February snowfall now 31.2" Seasonal snowfall 40.1". Just about touching 12" on the stake.
  2. It's showing up well on CC view; a persistent little bubble. The snow is accumulating here.
  3. Smithtown, NY 10:30am. Light snow, 28 Real snow flakes now as opposed to the pixie dust we'd been having. 0.7" new accumulation since midnight. 5.1" total. 11" at the stake.
  4. That's .1 to .3 , not .01. At 10:1, which might be a bit generous, it would be 1 to 3 inches of snow today.
  5. Very light snow here. Had a little light freezing drizzle or a faint mist a couple of hours ago, but it's switched back to snow now. Took a little walk after clearing the driveway and the exposed part of the street is definitely glazed over. It was safer to walk in snow at the margins.
  6. 95" here in 95-96 is a craziness contender.
  7. Light sleet and freezing rain mix here as of 4:30pm. 27F
  8. PHL warning verified OKX advisory verified. Not too shabby.
  9. 12z 3k NAM thermal profiles for here were dead on. Hinted at a little sleet around 2pm and cooled the mid levels back to 0C or below by 3pm. Currently, precipitation here is light but is back to all snow. Temp 27.6 N Smithtown, NY
  10. Gotta love the Montauk and South Ferry cams (time sensitive):
  11. 4.4" as of 1:45PM. Temp up to 27.3. Very light snow/sleet mix now. 11" at the stake. Snow depth increased 1.1" in 45 minutes since 1pm. North Smithtown 39" season total
  12. Sometimes. It definitely doesn't hurt. You near Adirondack drive?
  13. Righteous poundage here. Gonna miss this band after it moves through.
  14. 3-6" in 12 hours is advisory criteria for OKX. If its going to be 6" they have a little wiggle room, but basically 3-6 already is considered advisory snowfall. For straight snowfall, need a minimum of 3" for advisory.
  15. Smithtown 3.3" as of 1PM. 0.6" in the past hour. Very variable intensity of snowfall. Large flakes now with some rimed flakes and I think a few IP but not many. 26F
  16. That's what I'm hoping. The models support it. Since there are differences in teh timing of the best lift / heaviest snow with what's actually happening, I'd assumthere will be some variation in mixing too, but overall the outcome might be similar. Some IP is supported over the next couple of hours. The sleet to the SW might only make a little more progress before backing off. We'll see.
  17. Smithown. 2.7" as of noon. Temp 25.8 Heaviest snow of the day at the moment. Not quite heavy based on visibility, but big fluffly efficiently accumulating flakes. Had very light winds and then a sudden rogue gust of wind blew tons of powdery snow out of the evergreens and filled the air with thick snow.
  18. I'm up by 25A and think we'll probably get by with just enough IP to be a curiosity. A short window for a little mix over the next couple of hours and then back to snow and beyond that most mid level warming above 0C will be minor and masked by little if anything falling. In other words, I don't see mixing mattering here, although I suspect there will be a few ice pellets.
  19. That makes sense. It's consistent with the 3k NAM forecast soundings. Just barely flirting with 0C at NYC at 17z. Basically isothermal between about 750 and 800 and not enough of a nudge above to melt anything. Best chances for a few IP would be around 19z (probably S/IP mix) and then quickly cools it just enough to be all snow with any decent lift. Assuming the forecast soundings are spot on. I suspect there are posters who refer to the p-type maps as "soundings" but I can't be sure.
  20. Plus, at least part of PHL CWA has different warning criteria. This is the 12 hour criteria:

  22. I must be getting old, or maybe not old enough. I thought that was Walter Mathau.
