    Snow/sleet mix here. Temp 30. 2.2" new snow. 1.7" since midnight.
  2. NorthShoreWx
    Yeah, 1-3 when the forecast was 2-4 is pretty epic, maybe even historic.
  3. NorthShoreWx
    As of midnight, 0.5" snowfall. Temperature is 25. Pretty, but painfully light snow continues. Accumulating 1 or 2 tenths of an inch per hour. To put that in perspective, the liquid equivalent of this light fluff is probably a trace per hour.

    25⁰ with light snow in N Smithtown. Only about a quarter inch on the ground, but it's covering everything and looks nice. The max temp this afternoon briefly touched 29 and the snow began covering the street from the first flake.

    Suddenly it's showing 1"+ qpf for the twin forks. Not inspiring to see that doubled at the last minute.
  6. NorthShoreWx
    First sparse hint of tiny snowflakes spotted here a moment ago at 8:41. Temp is 27.8

    But for a good part of that quarter inch of freezing rain along the north shore, the NAM forecast soundings shows a 50 - 100mb deep sub freezing layer (decreasing over time) from the surface up*. I forget the magic numbers, but I'd imagine that some of that fzr would be sleet. 3k NAM does eventually get to an obvious fzr sounding and then a wee bit of plain drizzle before things cool again. I'll take a stand and go with 4" in my neighborhood. How much it packs down with the phase shifts is TBD. *Caveat is I'm extrapolating from the skew-Ts on the free TT site. Hard to be precise on some of that fine stuff.

    That's what I remember. here's a sat pic:

    3k NAM soundings keep my location at or below freezing. Snow, then some sleet, a few hours of mixed/freezing drizzle, then back to snow. About .5" liquid on the NAM. Up to now, we've only had 1.2" of snow this season.
  11. NorthShoreWx
    Snow is better than advisories
  12. NorthShoreWx
    NW Suffolk has a shot.
  13. NorthShoreWx
    Good point. .8 before midnight and 1.0 afterwards and we see headlines about the snow drought ending. The exact same snowfall starting a few minutes earlier and the headlines are the opposite. Where'd they put that old face palm emoji?
  14. NorthShoreWx
    Hurricane Donna
  15. NorthShoreWx
    Nice photos Don. I hope your house wasn't flooded. Ended with 1.11" rainfall here.

    The wireless cable box sounds like the same thing Spectrum is doing. It's just another streaming device, like a Roku stick
  17. NorthShoreWx
    Do you scroll americanwx on your phone vertically or horizontally?
  18. NorthShoreWx
    Verizon. They're evil too, but the deal was pretty straight forward and it's not a 'temporary/promotional' rate. I read that other cable companies (I think Spectrum) are dropping the cable TV and soft-forcing their their customers to stream the cable line-up. At least then you can lose the cable box, but it has been a hardship for some elderly people confused by streaming navigation. Other than the box, it didn't lower their cost You do have to factor in the cost of any streaming services that you might want to add. I had a couple already, so those costs were a wash. I did add sling.
  19. NorthShoreWx
    I did that and got no satisfaction. I told them that the next call would be me cancelling, and it was. That 2nd call they tried to make a deal and I told them to pound salt. Went from $307 to $117. For $117 we still have our VoIP "landline" and better internet than we had. $190/month savings is a lot of craft beers
  20. NorthShoreWx
    That's 1 bill somewhere north of $300 is my guess. I used to pay that too. Less than half as much for almost the same stuff now. I don't get TWC any more, but had rarely been watching it before.
  21. NorthShoreWx
    2.64" total here last night (plus 0.55" from the weekend snow and rain). A few broken branches scattered around Tara, but nothing major. Power was out for about 4 hours. All of our snowpack is gone
  22. NorthShoreWx
    PS Happy Birthday Rjay and others. Definitely an interesting start to the day.
  23. NorthShoreWx
    Well, the sick part of the storm is over, the power is out, and in a moment I will be too. Won't know rainfall until the morning. Tuesday's max T was 56 at 11:59pm. Morning low was 25.
  24. NorthShoreWx
    And there goes our power. I was this close to posting that our third world power grid held up for once, but no.
  25. NorthShoreWx
    Been in the car wash for longer than I thought that thin little line would last. Wind at the first part. Wind has calmed a little but not yet the rain. I think it's about to.
