Looks like 11.5" sent right around my neighborhood last night-wasn't me. Probably right around a foot then if you count what fell since.
-
I think 6 hours. There’s high end potential here because of the positioning of the trough/SE Ridge, some blocking remaining in place and amplitude of the trough/ridge. I’d give it some more time but definitely KU potential.
-
Light snow, another coating on top of what fell. I’ll go with the 11” others in my area have since it was tough to measure and I think some blowing snow/stuff got onto my table I use to measure. What a mess. I wonder what liquid equivalents people have?
-
Ending as sleet here, maybe some pixie dust flakes. Very impressive storm.
-
That's impossible. Must have somehow gotten to 32 from snywx land to Boston? I thought it was guaranteed 20-1 ratios when temps were in the single digits and teens? No freaking way!!
-
This cold surface air wasn’t being dislodged other than on the immediate NJ shore and maybe Montauk.
-
In the dry slot without strong lift we likely get freezing drizzle for a while.
-
This will be dense glop that becomes a glacier. And we’ll have piles from it that resemble the 18”+ north and west since it has the same water content. Very high impact event here and roads will be a disaster for a while.
-
In fairness the Pivotal snow maps aren’t supposed to count sleet as snow. RRFS might count sleet so if that’s true it was a win.
-
12” at Islip, even 11” at Oceanside right on the south shore. Definitely a high end event for LI even without it being all snow.
-
The heavier stuff has been slow to come into Suffolk, maybe some subsidence east of the band over the city but looks to be poking east more.
-
Moderate to maybe heavy sleet.
-
Montauk probably goes to rain for a bit.
-
We still have a ways to go.
-
Must be absolutely pounding sleet and maybe snow in Manhattan. I think Central Park makes it to 12”.
-
Just wait until we get some freezing drizzle later.
-
Yep this is going to be a disaster to move/shovel/whatever. There will be huge piles that last until March lol.
-
Central Park at 10.6". Have a shot at a foot with all the sleet still left. Some around the DC area have 4" of sleet.
-
When the lifting sucks and there's nothing to seed the clouds with, you can get freezing drizzle/light freezing rain. The heavier stuff to the west will likely be sleet when it gets here.
-
35 won’t do much to the snowpack.
-
I doubt highly we make it to freezing. Maybe upper 20s. But looking likely we get a glaze overnight on top, probably when the main slug of precip moves out.
-
South fork is up to 29 now. They might go to plain rain tonight along with coastal NJ.
-
It’s not, it’s based on distance from the radar site-radar beam elevation. Way out east it’s showing that once the radar beam reaches probably 6000 feet or so it’s picking up a mix. I don’t have the tool to show the radar beam elevation so far from the radar site but it must be about 6000 feet or so. In N NJ it’s closer to the radar site and the radar beam is at a lower elevation which is how it picks it up.
-
Question is if any of us can get to 12” with what we still have coming. Don’t think I make it but probably get to 11”.
-
We have precip to come, mostly sleet for a few more hours, maybe up to 0.5” liquid which could be 1.5” sleet. On LI looks like there will be some freezing rain/drizzle. This will be a disaster overnight and tomorrow to clear when it all congeals up.
