The map looks a little low on parts of LI especially Nassau, numerous 6” reports there.

Something should be done and should've been done for years. Have a dedicated NWS observer there who will measure properly or take the obs someplace else. I can understand parts of the city having less because they struggled with temps for a while but that's just ludicrous how on TV there was clearly 3" with snow still coming down at a good clip and temps falling. JFK right on Jamaica Bay struggled with temps too and came in with 4.6". I showed pics of my neighborhood to a relative in FL yesterday and they were stunned about how much fell where I am vs "I heard the city only had 2". It's ridiculous.

If we have a tanked PNA, that raises the likelihood the SE ridge will link up with any -NAO block which obviously is a disaster.

Great to have it during the lowest sun angle of the year too so we’re not losing much of it every day like in March.

8.0" Huntington Station and season total. Thanks for compiling and making the map!

I would say the Euro AI spotted it 4-5 days out or so and was consistently aggressive with it. The RRFS was the best model close in considering how well we ended up doing and it was always the wettest short term model. The other hi res models kinda waffled on QPF until the end.

weather.gov/source/crh/snowmap.html?zoom=8&lat=41.64&lon=-71.61&hr=24 You can zoom or move the map to NYC's area.

My street is a sheet of ice, don't blame them.

8.3" there. It's the next town over from me. Very nice/overperforming event here finally.

Thanks!

You might have taken mine already since I see a Huntington Station 8" but that's where I ended up. It was around 12:30pm.

This was definitely an overachiever here for sure. Reminds me of 3/22/18 somewhat even though I know those amounts were higher, that’s the last I think across the board overachiever in my area.

Reminds me of the early Jan 2022 event before the major storm at the end of the month-I think that was also about 8” here. This is definitely my biggest event since that storm though, 2/13/24 was 6-7 here”.

Even more lol. I wonder what the melted down liquid will be, the end definitely had some fluff factor but the first 2/3 was definitely paste.

Right on the sound probably not a good spot since it might've been a couple degrees warmer and lost some of the initial snow.

Was a couple degrees colder here to start so that helped. Those couple degrees and a little elevation really help in marginal events which this started out as.

On the nose 8", still some light snow but likely my final. Awesome event.

Just about 8". Still coming down decently but about to taper off. I'll probably add a couple tenths to this. My best event here since Jan 2022.

Might get some help from the sound too with N winds kicking up.

Yep, N winds and arctic air behind the front must be starting. We'll probably end with fluffier snow which will help the ratios. Dare I say 8"? Back edge isn't in a hurry.

Definitely a heavy pasty snow too. Will be interesting to see how much water's in it, this will have staying power which is always good. The high QPF models won out for sure.

I thought it was 6" in 12 hours? Maybe this is spread out over longer but I think we definitely hit 6", good shot at the 7". Radar looks good for next couple hours maybe.

This will likely be a warning event overachiever for many and even did well north of the city due to a little help from the trough buckling and bringing moisture north. 1-2 degrees help and Central Park would be 5" right now too.

About 5.5" on my deck and it's comimg down. Maybe end up with 7".

Yep, chance it makes it to warning amount here. Coming down hard and more banding developing. Back edge doesn't look like it's hauling either.
