    Seaford and Massapequa had over a foot as of the 150pm report so southern Nassau must have some high totals too. That second main band looks like it really nailed the area for a while.

    Actually borderline heavy again with this batch. Radar doesn't seem to be picking up on the intensity of these mini snow bands/showers.
  3. jm1220
    Not one sleet pellet here from what I can tell.

    There's been a sucker hole over S Nassau for a while. Hopefully that fills in soon.

    Took measurements just now in my back lawn and averaged about 11" depth, was between 10.5 and 12". Lots of blowing around though. I leave it to those like NorthShoreWX to do this one accurately. No sleet, all snow moderate intensity.

    Starting to really come down again. Have to think I’m over 12” at this point but not many spots good for measuring anymore.
  7. jm1220
    I don’t see 8 more inches of snow for most of us outside of where the bands pivot which would be N NJ and S NY.

    Looking like we have a shot with the radar trying to fire back up. If so we have a shot at 15”+ after all. Mid level warm air won’t kill that for us.

    Snow picking back up a little, no sleet.
  10. jm1220
    Interesting. Hope it flips back over. CC shows the mix line south of Fire Island and hanging there.
  11. jm1220
    We should be good. Looks like the sleet line is stopping just south of Fire Island.
  12. jm1220
    It'll be close to maybe taking the #9 spot. I don't see 6" or more happening to move them higher than 9 but who knows, the pivot point doesn't look terrible there actually. My 18" guess for them might not be too bad in the end.
  13. jm1220
    Sleet really ain't so bad in the long term. Our Dec snowpack definitely hung on longer because of the sleet pounded into it and then froze into a brick.
  14. jm1220
    We probably get another 1-2" or so, so if you're at 12.5 I'd say 14-15" should about do it. There's another burst south of LI that hopefully comes through. Hard for me to say how much here from drifting but I might be a little less than you.
  15. jm1220
    Light snow again, no sleet here.
  16. jm1220
    It's trying. Hopefully we all can get another good burst out of that.
  17. jm1220
    Yup. I think it's the mid level lift pivoting away from some and therefore no/fewer snowflakes can form. Lower level lift would cause sleet pellets to form. If there's a heavier batch it probably goes back to snow. It's not warm air surging in at mid levels this time IMO.

    Might be trying to a little. Hopefully that keeps up. Still snowing hard here for now.

    The low eventually becomes vertically stacked but lows here would have the 700 low track to the west of the surface low and the 500 low west of that. That’s how the storm strengthens-it’s vertically tilted and air can rise quickly. When it becomes stacked all the lows are on top of each other and it starts weakening since the fast rising air stops. You really would rather the 700mb low go east of you for the best pivot point on the snow. East of it is where the dry air comes in.
  20. jm1220
    The lousy 700 low track is always a red flag to me for a fast dryslot. We should easily make it to 12” but the 15+ amounts aren’t happening east of the city unless radar really regenerates.
  21. jm1220
    The sleet is probably associated with the incoming dry slot-losing heavy precip allows the warm air to come in. Looks like the HRRR will be more correct with the dryslot unless more precip fires up south of here.
  22. jm1220
    Just measured 9.5-10” in a few spots. Light to moderate now but will pick up again soon!
  23. jm1220
    There’s no sleet here-all snow. A bit of a lull at the moment but the next band is coming in hot.
  24. jm1220
    I called for 18” at Central Park....

    Wow Long Beach to Captree getting obliterated.
