Decent glaze here, you can hear a bit of crackling in the trees. Hopefully the next batch of precip coming through will be sleet or snow. The snow piles left will be impenetrable after this.
-
Yep. Good night to stay in for sure.
-
All cold surfaces glazed here. My deck is a sheet of ice. Pavement still wet. Nearest station's at 29.5 degrees. Hopefully nothing too heavy still to come but we still have light showers around for another few hours.
-
Regardless of how much precip is left, roads are going to be very icy area wide later. I would think salt on the roads has been washed away by the rain and temps will just get colder from here.
-
Tree twigs/cold surfaces starting to accrete.
-
32 here. Uh oh…
-
Down to 33 here.
-
I’m reading WxUnderground stations.
-
Finally hit 32 in NW Nassau.
-
Stuck at 35 since the front went through. For most of us except well NW this will be a dodged bullet.
-
If winter ended now I’d give it a C/C-. Cold and snowy January but normal is still 8-9 more inches here (have about 24”, average is 32-33” here). December was a disaster. Hopefully Feb can have some snowy periods to get us above average.
-
Yep. We got down to 35 here and that seems to be it for now. Temps north of here are above freezing for a good distance. Snow coverage here down to mostly piles in any exposed area. My backyard is covered but looks very sad lol. Big melt/slush pool on one side. It got wrecked.
-
So far there’s a good lag in getting the temp below 35 or so east of the city. Temps in SW CT are sticking at around 33-35.
-
Down almost immediately to 40 here. That was quick. But we’ll see how fast it keeps going down to below 32.
-
Next question will be how fast we can get below freezing behind the front. That’s lagging a bit. SW CT behind the front is still above freezing. Freezing line looks to be roughly the Tappan Zee Bridge.
-
Can also see the front advancing pretty clearly on the OKX and DIX radars.
-
Huge temp gradient already showing up on Long Island. 36 in Bayville, still 50 here maybe 15 miles away.
-
Temp still 50 here. Snowpack survived overnight in my yard for the most part but some bare patches appearing.
-
That’s insane. I had way less than Boston but still way more than that left lol.
-
Looks about the same here. Bare patches growing pretty quickly though. The one thing that could make it worse for snow retention is if there was a stronger wind. I’d imagine down in Long Beach there’s not much left.
-
About 6-7” on average down here, some exposed spots are bare. It’s resilient because of the water content but I doubt there’s much left by the time we go below freezing again.
-
Not too worried about the city and near the coast anymore. The boundary has slowly been delayed in getting here on the models today and GFS just delayed it again and removes most precip after it. Could there be a glaze-sure, but the real ice threat will be north of the city. Lots of rain and unfortunately snow melt before. Most of us other than the really crushed spots will be down to piles by the time the cold gets here again. Next 24 hours with high humidity will eat it right up.
-
Any amount of ice is an issue but over 0.3” or so can create real problems and is at the point where tree limbs start to break. Hopefully that’s overdone. If the precip is light it might create more of a problem actually. Lighter rain is more likely to freeze on contact vs heavy rain much of which would run off at temps above 28 or so.
-
Hopefully we get to a situation where it’s cold rain that doesn’t melt much snow and it all freezes at the end. I think the collapse south to where it’s sleet is unlikely unless you’re up near I-84. I wouldn’t weigh the Nam too heavily pretty much ever.
-
I’ve always thought of the eastern half of LI as being more similar to New England climo wise-like Cape Cod than Mid Atlantic but it’s still part of the NYC metro area. So who knows.
