I said 2-8” because of the bust potential and got 2”. Not bragging just saying it was always there

Snow globe right now with perfect dendrites falling. You can clearly see each flake. Did not last long but left another dusting

Happy Birthday Old Man Winter storm obs
LongBeachSurfFreak replied to Ginx snewx's topic in New England
Still snowing in NYC, which should be good for you guys. Only managed 2” here -
Just started snowing again on the uws after I finally finished the cleanup and put the tractors away. What this storm lacked in intensity in the city it will be memorable for duration

Still snowing lightly on the uws. Only picked up about .5” new for a total of 2.0”. It will be interesting to see if there is anything left of the western band when it pivots through

Possible Dec 1-3 Winter Storm

I have been on the clock since 6am, no shifts at all just be here if it’s snowing and not stop -
Light snow starting to accumulate again on the uws. Looks like I will not be going home anytime soon.

Radar looks like we are starting to see some consolidation in banding. If we do not reach moderate levels it’s not going to cut it in the city. UHI doing its thing right now -
Light misty drizzle falling on the uws. Looks like we are going to need good banding even at night to cut it in the city. And again, I had 1.5” here today

We are going to have to pull an elephant out of a hat to make this one work. What your seeing on radar is deceiving. That’s not snow out there over the ocean and that’s why reflectivity is so high. Once it moves north and transitions to snow it equates to lower rates. I’m not saying it can’t happen, it’s tuff. .5” round one 1.5” round two uws

Possible Dec 1-3 Winter Storm
LongBeachSurfFreak replied to Zelocita Weather's topic in New York City Metro
Dry air seems to be a problem now too, ground truth isn’t matching the radar. It’s still possible we pull a miracle like with the third March storm in 2018, I had 14” at home from one tiny band -

Rates dropped of big time on the uws the last 30 min. We were doing well for a while I’m going to go measure now -
Far far far from white rain at 120th and Broadway. About an inch so far and snowing consistently moderate to at times close to heavy

That bands looking more and more like an inverted trough. Whatever it is, it’s awesome and it’s dumping on the uws. Nice to be in the jackpot area of one of these fonally

The thing is it’s going to ripping in the main band during the evening commute. It may only be a 5 mile wide area, but when it’s snowing 2-3”/hr it’s going cause a nightmare commute regardless of final totals -

Those rates would easily get the job done -
Winds are going north now. That should start to drop temps out there

Exactly, huge bust potential either way. someone is going to snow 4” an hour (short term) under the convective band this afternoon -

Just drizzle on the uws. Going up on top of building to see if it’s snow on top of the Nordstrom tower at 1500’
