    We had 7.3” on the north shore at East Northport where I lived at the time during PD 1. Large parts of LI Sound were frozen over at the time so that source of moisture was not readily available.

    I moved to PA almost 20 years ago. I got the idea after observing that many of the people that worked at Midtown South had cars with PA plates. I worked across from there at the time.

    The last time that I am aware of significant icing on LI Sound other than that noted above was in February 1979 in the week prior to PD 1. I was able to walk several hundred yards out onto the ice at Sunken Meadow at that time.

    83 was a wild storm where I was out on the island on the north shore. We had several hours overnight of winds gusting to 40 - 65 mph on my weather station along with occasional mixing with graupel. I believe that there were gravity waves associated with that storm as well. As you noted it took forever for the snow shield to move in. When it did so it came in like a wall of white at 3:00 PM and we transitioned to heavy snow quickly.

    1.25” total. Looks like we are done.

    I think you had some existing snow cover from during the week. The area near Gouldsboro / Moscow had a couple of inches on the 2nd from some lake effect streamers that moved through (If that’s your area) and it looks like you received a coating up there today. That area is up at about 1800 feet so that always helps.

    I checked the traffic cams up in the Stroudsburg / MPO area and it looks like nothing more than flurries currently.

    Steady light snow with visibility at about 3/4 mile. Visibility’s to my west in the Allentown area are about the same. 24F. Roads and sidewalks quickly covered.

    Light snow is reaching the ground now almost to the west side of Allentown.

    Blooming radar is nice however much of what is seen over PA currently to the north and east of Harrisburg is virga.

    RGEM is also south.

    I am waiting for the 0z runs where the models tighten the screws on the weenies regarding this event. That seems to be the pattern for the past two nights…lol

    It’s done. Confluence FTW.

    There is a radar site up in that area in Ricketts Glen State Park. It’s called the Benton FAA radar site and it’s on a mountain top north of Berwick. It’s a fascinating story about how this was once a military site and was subsequently transferred to the FAA. I knew nothing about it until one day I drove past it and thought it looked very much like a Doppler site (It’s not). It’s been upgraded and is now classified as a CARSR radar site and supposedly has weather data processing capabilities.
