  1. Just started ripping on the uws. Not a single pinger and I have been outside non stop. Some of the best snow in the area here so far
  2. That band that just came through Manhattan was epic. Rates 3 or 4”/hr for about 20 min. Have good video to compare to past storms
  3. Our turn is coming soon. This is going to surprise allot of people. Good thing it’s happening while people are awake
  4. Exactly, this isn’t a marginal event where we loose snow to melting. Ice will be an issue on the south shore
  5. I remember a system years ago that has a south to north moving band with 4”/hour rates. It Moved relatively quickly but was incredible.
  6. This is ridiculous. What is happening down there will have very little effect up here. We are right next to the cold air source
  7. I doubt the warm push makes it north of the park. I have seen this multiple times in the past. That seems to be where it likes to stop
  8. The airmass is great at the surface. That should keep temps below freezing. I stil think the south shore goes to sleet and ice after 6-8”. Snow removal there is going to be a bitch. where I am on the far uws looks great for a foot. I doubt I see more then a short period of sleet an freezing drizzle here.
  9. Great run for the coast(improvements). For those that threw in the towel you watch more post less. wind direction is everything for the south shore. If we can keep as much north in the wind as possible and keep that CAD going it may never go above freezing. A great example is March 07. In some recent big storms we melted allot, If not all the front end thump snow. This will not be the case this time for those hoping for a white Christmas. With all the sleet and ice your talking pure glacier
  10. The big question for western li is does the temp stay below freezing. We haven’t seen that in some recent events that had a change over. But if it does snow removal will be very difficult with sleet and ice. I like 4” at my parents on the bay 6” at my place in Lynbrook and 10” at work on the far uws
  11. I wouldn’t automatically assume your going to mix. When all is said and done 95% of your precip likely falls as snow with maybe a period of light sleet and freezing drizzle which will hardly be noticed. Your certainly not going above freezing. The CAD is going to be intense on NE winds. For those that do not think it’s possible look at November 18. Watch that wind direction. south shore Suffolk and the jersey shore are a different story being more open to warming on that wind
  12. He’s clearly trolling. He occasionally has some good input. But this is total Bs. Unless he’s talking about the jersey shore
  13. Looking more and more likely we can start locking in 12”+ for the metro. As always with these big systems someone will sit under banding and approach 2’. I’m still hesitant for the south shore. Could easily get on the wrong side of the coastal front at some point
  14. Mostly rain on the uws. Had a few pellets at the onset
  15. Exactly, just look at the what it did with Jan 15. It’s going to snow in NYC. It’s just a matter dog how much mix we get. I like where I’ll be on the far NW UWS. Right on the beaches may struggle do to the warm water temps and early season nature of this storm
  16. The big concern in the city is what happens to all the outdoor dinning setups. If we do end up getting over a foot, where does all the snow go??? Interesting times on the way!!
  17. I think about that all the time. Equinox has the potential for more vert then any mountain in Vermont. The terrain also appears to be very challenging (maybe too challenging) The lack of snowfall at the lower elevations part makes sense though in the days before snow making. It’s a perfect location too with a great town right there.
  18. Pushing moderate snow at the moment on the yes, ground is whitening on colder surfaces
