Slightly. Up here over to the Bronx maybe adds up to 1" and the real accum starts around the Tappan Zee and CT coast. It's in the mid teens here now, sad that we'll most likely have rain tomorrow on southerly winds. Maybe we can have it be a couple degrees colder and the 1" can at least work out. But there's plenty on the ground now-deep winter for sure and it'll be around for a while regardless.

Can't really say. Plenty of snow melted in Huntington this week too. The couple of degrees does make a difference.

Tuesday might be one of those situations. I fully expect down here to be a quick changeover to rain but in Huntington maybe 1-3". Over a season those kind of differences add up. 12/17 this winter was another, I had 8" but Long Beach maybe 4-5. In March 2019 I drove to LB after an early March snow event and was amazed how fast the snow cover dropped off south of the LIE. In my yard I had a good 4-5" but in Long Beach some patches here and there. I'd say the LIE is a good dividing line. South of there is where the elevation becomes flat and the warming ocean effect can take over much easier.

2/3/14 was the absolute worst here. I had about 4" of absolutely dumping snow then it turned to heavy rain while north of Sunrise Highway kept dumping for hours. I ended with something like 7" while the rest of the island had 12+. It can be amazing here for snowstorms like Boxing Day 2010, 12/19/09, 1/3/18, even 3/21/18 but tons of disappointments in between. I have a feeling Monday was really nice here, there was at least a foot right down to the beach and the radar looked amazing for a few hours. Now I live in a place where I'll be about the last one to mix/change over on the island. My (now former office since I've been WFH) work location is Melville so made it convenient to move to Huntington.

We wasted a good amount early on with 33-34 temps and rain. Probably 0.2-0.3 liquid as barely accumulating or rain. It "seems" like more than 5.5 due to the heavy wet nature of snow but it's what I measured in a few places. We really didn't start piling it on until 1pm.

In Long Beach about 5.5. Are you in Oceanside?

Looks like the area from you to Smithtown was the LI jackpot! Because I was out of town for the weekend of course.

Snow at the end down here got a little drier but it was paste for the most part. Very picturesque.

9” report north of Melville which is right where I live. It’ll be good being back up there tomorrow. Here in Long Beach where I am now a couple degrees difference and rain at the start made it 5.5” vs 9” there-can’t blame subsidence since it was best from here up to NW Suffolk. It’s cement/paste here too clinging to everything.

As much of a bummer it was for Central Park’s snow average for 2011-20 ending up at 29.9, their snow average for this decade is now 32.5”.

I jumped in from 2009-12 but today is just crazy. Props to them lol

We’d definitely have 8-9” here too if it started off a couple degrees colder.

Definitely wasn’t a dry snow here, very wet and pasty. Too bad we spent so much time to start accumulating. 90% of what we had came after 12:30pm which is when the band started really going to town. Actually started as rain here in the morning and the first part of the snow was with temps 33-34 so lousy accumulating.

Looking forward to being back up north tomorrow. There’s probably 10-12” on the ground in spots here again.

Not quite as much as I thought here. 5.5” total in Long Beach.

Down to flurries here and the sun’s trying to come out. Awesome event.

Yup great job by Upton! One last little burst here in Long Beach but should be done soon. Haven’t measured but we probably have 6” or so. Very pasty wet snow. Thankfully the wet models like the Nam verified if not even more so.

More like a pack double-r.

I’m over 5” now in Long Beach so we caught up fast here. Snow actually picking back up a little. But I’m sure at home in Huntington has a couple inches more.

Snow tapering down a little here so maybe some minor additional accumulating.

Now it’s probably close to 5” and still dumping.

I’ll probably end with 4-5” here in Long Beach, we lost a good amount to start with lousy accumulating and even rain but definitely making up for it. Very picturesque wet snow here. At home in Huntington will probably end with 7-8” given people are approaching 6” on the north shore already. We probably have an hour or so left.

Very heavy snow in Long Beach, has to be over 3” now. This band just sitting and dumping overhead!!

Mod to heavy snow in Long Beach, big flakes too.

Moderate snow here now, probably a slushy inch on colder surfaces. Roads are finally covered.
